Linéarisation de Produits de Polynômes de Meixner, Krawtchouk et Charlier

Abstract. Let (pn(x) (n>=0) be a sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a functional L. We propose a calculuation of the functional L(\prod_{i=1}^{m} pni(x)) for the Meixner, Krawtchouk and Charlier polynomials, with the help of combinatorial techniques. This combinatorial approach permits to refine several classical analytical results.
