摘要:There is a close relationship between continued fractions, Hankel determinants, and orthogonal polynomials. Many of the most important sequences in enumerative combinatorics arise as moments of well-known orthogonal polynomials. One characteristic of these sequences is that their ordinary generating functions have simple continued fractions.

       In the first talk, starting from the moment sequences of classical orthogonal polynomials we derive the orthogonality purely algebraically. We consider also the moments of (q=1) classical orthogonal polynomials, and study those cases in which the exponential generating function has a nice form and show that the generalized Dumont-Foata polynomials, which refine  both Genocchi numbers and median Genocchi numbers,  are the moments of rescaled continuous dual Hahn polynomials.

       Recently,  as a refinement of the median Genocchi numbers, Eu-Fu-Lai-Lo studied  the descent polynomials of even-odd descent permutations and proved that they are  gamma-positive. In the second talk, using combinatorial theory of continued fractions and bijections we define a natural (p,q)-analogue of their polynomials and show that these polynomials provide  a  nice (p,q)-analogue of the J-fraction and gamma-positivity.
