Abstract:
Taking the examples of Legendre and Hermite orthogonal polynomi
als, we show how to interpret the fact that these
orthogonal polynomials are moments of other orthogonal polynomials in terms of t
heir associated Riordan arrays. We use these means to
calculate the Hankel transforms of the associated polynomial sequences.
