Characterization of (c)-Riordan Arrays, Gegenbauer-Humbert-Type Polynomial Sequences, and (c)-Bell Polynomials

Here presented are the definitions of(c)-Riordan arrays and(c)-Bell polynomials which are extensions of the classical Riordan arrays and Bell polynomials.The characterization of(c)-Riordan arrays by means of the A-and Z-sequences is given,which corresponds to a horizontal construction of a(c)-Riordan array rather than its definition approach through column generating functions.There exists a one-to-one correspondence between GegenbauerHumbert-type polynomial sequences and the set of(c)-Riordan arrays,which generates the sequence characterization of Gegenbauer-Humbert-type polynomial sequences.The sequence characterization is applied to construct readily a(c)-Riordan array.In addition,subgrouping of(c)-Riordan arrays by using the characterizations is discussed.The(c)-Bell polynomials and its identities by means of convolution families are also studied.Finally,the characterization of(c)-Riordan arrays in terms of the convolution families and(c)-Bell polynomials is presented.
