In mathematics , a polynomial sequence is a sequence of polynomial s indexed by the nonnegative integers 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., in which each index is equal to the degree of the corresponding polynomial. Polynomial sequences are a topic of interest in enumerative combinatorics and algebraic combinatorics , as well as applied mathematics . Examples Some polynomial sequences arise in physics and approximation theory as the solutions of certain ordinary differential equation s Laguerre polynomials Chebyshev polynomials Legendre polynomials Jacobi polynomials Others come from statistics Hermite polynomials Many are studied in algebra and combinatorics Monomial s Rising factorial s Falling factorial s Abel polynomials Bell polynomials Bernoulli polynomials Dickson polynomial s Fibonacci polynomials Lagrange polynomials Lucas polynomials Spread polynomials Touchard polynomials Rook polynomials Classes of polynomial sequences Polynomial sequences of binomial type Orthogonal polynomials Secondary polynomials Sheffersequence Sturm sequence Generalized Appell polynomials See also Umbral calculus References Aigner, Martin.
