Abstract

We deal with the problem of obtaining closed formulas for the connection coefficients between orthogonal polynomial sequences and, also, the canonical sequence, using a recursive methodology based on symbolic computations, verifications and demonstrations in the Mathematica ® language. We present the corresponding software that is available in Netlib and, with it, we derive new formulas for the connection coefficients for some semi-classical of class 1 families.
