%0 Journal Article %T A characterization of ultraspherical, Hermite, and Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind %A Michael Anshelevich %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %X We show that the only orthogonal polynomials with a generating function of the form $F(x z - \alpha z^2)$ are the ultraspherical, Hermite, and Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind. For special $F$ for which this is the case, we then finish the classification of orthogonal polynomials with more general generating functions $F(x w(z) - R(z))$. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1108.0914v3
