Combinatorics of Jacobi-Configurations II: A Rational Approximation via Matching Polynomials

Abstract. The notion of 'order' for Jacobi-configurations has been introduced in part I of this article. In this second part the exponential generating function for Jacobi-configurations of bounded order, i.e. the analog of the classical generating function of Jacobi's for his polynomials, Is derived. This result (and its proof) makes use of certain matching polynomials and their combinatorial properties. These matching polynomials are close relatives of the Tchebycheff-polynomials.
