摘要：
Orthogonal polynomials for the multinomial distribution m(x,p) of N balls dropped into d boxes (box i has probability p(i)) are called multivariate Krawtchouk polynomials. This paper gives an introduction to their properties, collections of natural Markov chains which they explicitly diagonalize and associated bivariate multinomial distributions. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
