Wilson polynomials

Wilson polynomials

In mathematics, Wilson polynomials are a family of orthogonal polynomials introduced by harvtxt|Wilson|1980that generalize Jacobi polynomials, Hahn polynomials, and Charlier polynomials.

They are defined in terms of the hypergeometric function and the Pochhammer symbols by:p_n(t^2)=(a+b)_n(a+c)_n(a+d)_n {}_4F_3left( egin{matrix} -n&a+b+c+d+n-1&a-t&a+t \ a+b&a+c&a+d end{matrix} ;1 ight).
