Abstract:
We determine which (ordinary) Riordan arrays are the coefficient arrays
of a family of orthogonal polynomials. In so doing, we are led to
introduce a family of polynomials, which includes the Boubaker
polynomials, and a scaled version of the Chebyshev polynomials, using
the techniques of Riordan arrays. We classify these polynomials in
terms of the Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kinds. We
also examine the Hankel transforms of sequences associated with the
inverse of the polynomial coefficient arrays, including the associated
moment sequences.
