Abstract

We are concerned with a special sequence of Appell polynomials, related to the Renyi and Tsallis entropies for the binomial distribution. The generating function is investigated: it is logarithmically convex and has remarkable connections with the modified Bessel function $$I_0(t)$$ and with the index of coincidence for Poisson distribution. The specific form of the Appell polynomials leads to specific properties of the associated Jakimovski–Leviatan operators.
