Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to present a theory of polynomial sequences of binomial-type, based on matrix calculus, recurrence, and determinantal forms. We consider also some connections with previous approaches, such as generating functions and operators methods. An interesting differential relation is presented, which will establish a close link between binomial, Appell, and Sheffer sequences.
