A Krawtchouk polynomial is introduced as the classical Mac-Williams identity, which can be expressed in weight-enumerator-free form of a linear code and its dual code over a Hamming scheme. In this paper we find a new explicit expression for the $p$-number and the $q$-number, which are more generalized notions of the Krawtchouk polynomial in the P-polynomial schemes by using an extended version of a discrete Green's function. As corollaries, we obtain a new expression of the Krawtchouk polynomial over the Hamming scheme and the Eberlein polynomial over the Johnson scheme. Furthermore, we find another version of the MacWilliams identity over a Hamming scheme.

Let ${\mathcal{F}}$ denote an algebraically closed field with characteristic not two. Fix an integer $d{\geq}3$, let $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ denote the ${\mathcal{F}}$-algebra of $(d+1){\times}(d+1)$ matrices with entries in ${\mathcal{F}}$. An ordered pair of matrices A, $A^*$ in $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ is said to be LB-TD form whenever A is lower bidiagonal with subdiagonal entries all 1 and $A^*$ is irreducible tridiagonal. Let A, $A^*$ be a Leonard pair in $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ with fundamental parameter ${\beta}=2$, with this assumption there are four families of Leonard pairs, Racah, Hahn, dual Hahn, Krawtchouk type. In this paper we show from these four families only Racah and Krawtchouk have LB-TD form.

The relationship between the integral polynomials obtained from the iterations of the matrix given by the expression (1) and the entries of the Krawtchouk matrices is derived by using the associated Riordan arrays.

We propose an accurate approximation method via discrete Krawtchouk orthogonal polynomials to the distribution of a sum of independent but non-identically distributed binomial random variables. This approximation is a weighted binomial distribution with no need for continuity correction unlike commonly used density approximation methods such as saddlepoint, Gram-Charlier A type(GC), and Gaussian approximation methods. The accuracy obtained from the proposed approximation is compared with saddlepoint approximations applied by Eisinga et al. [4], which are the most accurate method among higher order asymptotic approximation methods. The numerical results show that the proposed approximation in general provide more accurate estimates over the entire range for the target probability mass function including the right-tail probabilities. In addition, the method is mathematically tractable and computationally easy to program.
