TLDR
In this paper, an alternative proof is given for the connection between a system of continuous Hahn polynomials and identities for symmetric elements in the Heisenberg algebra, which was first observed by Bender, Mead, and Pinsky [Phys. Rev. Lett. 56, 2445 (1986); J. Math. 28, 509 (1987)].
Abstract
An alternative proof is given for the connection between a system of continuous Hahn polynomials and identities for symmetric elements in the Heisenberg algebra, which was first observed by Bender, Mead, and Pinsky [Phys. Rev. Lett. 56, 2445 (1986); J. Math. Phys. 28, 509 (1987)]. The continuous Hahn polynomials turn out to be Meixner–Pollaczek polynomials. Use is made of the connection between Laguerre polynomials and Meixner–Pollaczek polynomials, the Rodrigues formula for Laguerre polynomials, an operational formula involving Meixner–Pollaczek polynomials, and the Schrodinger model for the irreducible unitary representations of the three‐dimensional Heisenberg group.

The Hahn and Meixner polynomials of an imaginary argument and some of their applications

TL;DR: In this article, the Hahn and Meixner polynomials of a discrete variable are analytically continued in the complex plane both in variable and parameter, leading to the origination of two systems of real polynomial systems orthogonal with respect to a continuous measure.
