The Meixner polynomials M_n(x) satisfy the recurrence: M_(k+1)=x*M_k-k^2*M_(k-1), M_(-1)=0, M_0=1.
See A060524 for an application to combinatorics. - N. J. A. Sloane, May 30 2013
The Meixner polynomials M_n(x) satisfy: M_n(x)=n!*sum(m=0..n/2, binomial(2*m,m)*sum(j=m..n/2, (-1)^(j)*x^(n-2*j)*sum(i=0..2*j-2*m, (2^(i-2*m)*stirling1(i+n+(-2)*j,n-2*j)*binomial(n-2*m-1,2*j-2*m-i))/(i+n+(-2)*j)!))). [Vladimir Kruchinin, Sep 25 2013]
