Abstract

In this paper, we shall be concerned with lowering operators defined on polynomials by means of

$$\begin{aligned} L(x^n)=\mu _nx^{n-1},\ \ n=0,1,\ldots , \ \mu _0=0,\ \ \mu _n\ne 0\ \ (n=1,2,\ldots ). \end{aligned}$$

We determine a necessary and sufficient condition on lowering operators L and a symmetric orthogonal polynomial sets \(\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}\) such that \(\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}\) is L-Appell. The resulting polynomials are the generalized Hermite and the symmetric PSs related to Wall and generalized Stieltjes–Wigert. Various properties of the obtained families are singled out: a three-term recurrence relation, explicit expression in term of hypergeometric and basic hypergeometric functions and generating functions.
