Pidduck polynomials are a sequence of orthogonal polynomials that arise in the context of serial correlation and some applications in probability theory and statistics. They are named after the mathematician who studied them, Arthur Pidduck. These polynomials can be defined through a recurrence relation or in terms of an explicit formula involving factorials and powers. They typically exhibit certain orthogonality properties with respect to a weight function over a specified interval.
