A word ? = ?1... ?n over the alphabet [k]={1,2,...,k} is said to be a staircase if there are no two adjacent letters with difference greater than 1. A word ? is said to be staircase-cyclic if it is a staircase word and in addition satisfies |?n??1|?1. We find the explicit generating functions for the number of staircase words and staircase-cyclic words in [k]n, in terms of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. Additionally, we find explicit formula for the numbers themselves, as trigonometric sums. These lead to immediate asymptotic corollaries. We also enumerate staircase necklaces, which are staircase-cyclic words that are not equivalent up to rotation.

The generating functions of fourteen families of generalized Chebyshev polynomials related to rank two Lie algebras A 2 , C 2 and G 2 are explicitly developed. There exist two classes of the orthogonal polynomials corresponding to the symmetric and antisymmetric orbit functions of each rank two algebra. The Lie algebras G 2 and C 2 admit two additional polynomial collections arising from their hybrid character functions. The admissible shift of the weight lattice permits the construction of a further four shifted polynomial classes of C 2 and directly generalizes formation of the classical univariate Chebyshev polynomials of the third and fourth kinds. Explicit evaluating formulas for each polynomial family are derived and linked to the incomplete exponential Bell polynomials.

We study a family of distributions that satisfy the stability-under-addition property, provided that the number ν of random variables in a sum is also a random variable. We call the corresponding property ν-stability and investigate the situation when the semigroup generated by the generating function of ν is commutative. Using results from the theory of iterations of analytic functions, we describe ν-stable distributions generated by summations with rational generating functions. A new case in this class of distributions arises when generating functions are linked with Chebyshev polynomials. The analogue of normal distribution corresponds to the hyperbolic secant distribution.

The Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials Fn(z) and Ln(z) are denned. These reduce to the familiar Fibonacci and Lucas numbers when z = 1. The polynomials are shown to satisfy a second order linear difference equation. Generating functions are derived, and also various simple identities, and relations with hypergeometric functions, Gegenbauer and Chebyshev polynomials.

The purpose of this paper is to construct generating functions for the family of the Fibonacci and Jacobsthal polynomials. Using these generating functions and their functional equations, we investigate some properties of these polynomials. We also give relationships between the Fibonacci, Jacobsthal, Chebyshev polynomials and the other well known polynomials. Finally, we give some infinite series applications related to these polynomials and their generating functions.

The main aim of this paper is to investigate multifarious properties and relations for the gamma distribution. The approach to reach this purpose will be introducing a special polynomial including gamma distribution. Several formulas covering addition formula, derivative property, integral representation and explicit formula are derived by means of the series manipulation method. Furthermore, two correlations including Bernoulli and Euler polynomials for gamma distribution polynomials are provided by utilizing of their generating functions.

In this paper, a q-analogue of r-Whitney-Lah numbers, also known as (q,r)-Whitney-Lah number, denoted by $L_{m,r} [n, k]_q$ is defined using the triangular recurrence relation. Several fundamental properties for the q-analogue are established such as vertical and horizontal recurrence relations, horizontal and exponential generating functions. Moreover, an explicit formula for (q, r)-Whitney-Lah number is derived using the concept of q-difference operator, particularly, the q-analogue of Newton’s Interpolation Formula (the umbral version of Taylor series). Furthermore, an explicit formula for the first form (q, r)-Dowling numbers is obtained which is expressed in terms of (q,r)-Whitney-Lah numbers and (q,r)-Whitney numbers of the second kind.
