Abstract:
We study the orthogonal polynomials of classical and semi-classical
types that can be defined by ordinary and exponential Riordan arrays.
We identify their moment sequences, giving their integral
representations and Hankel transforms. For a special class of classical
orthogonal polynomials defined by Riordan arrays, we identify a complementary family of orthogonal polynomials defined by reversion of moment
sequences. Special product sequences arise and their generating
functions are calculated.
