Charlier polynomials

In mathematics, Charlier polynomials (also called Poisson–Charlier polynomials) are a family of orthogonal polynomials introduced by Carl Charlier.They are given in terms of the generalized hypergeometric function by In mathematics, Charlier polynomials (also called Poisson–Charlier polynomials) are a family of orthogonal polynomials introduced by Carl Charlier.They are given in terms of the generalized hypergeometric function by where L {displaystyle L} are Laguerre polynomials. They satisfy the orthogonality relation
