Cycle indicators and special functions (Q1600803)

It is shown that a class of special functions (involving Sheffer-type polynomials and Gegenbauer-Humbert-type polynomials) could have cycle indicator representations and some recurrence relations. This implies the conclusion that classical special functions with simple logarithms of generating functions can be classified this way. This paper is mainly devoted to establish various relations and identities for special functions and remarkable number sequences.
