►The symbol (34.4.3), with an alternative expression as a terminating balanced of unit argument, can be expressend in terms of Racahpolynomials (18.26.3).
The orthogonality relations (34.5.14) for the symbols can be rewritten in terms of orthogonality relations for Racahpolynomials as given by (18.25.9)–(18.25.12).

§37.19(v) Askey–Wilson and -Racahpolynomials of variables
►Just as the classical OPs fit into the Askey scheme (see §18.19 and Figure 18.21.1) with Wilson and Racahpolynomials on top, the Jacobi polynomials on the simplex fit into a scheme of OPs defined as products of one-variable OPs belonging to the Askey scheme by formulas somewhat resembling (37.14.7).

►When the permutation is cyclic, the connection coefficients that appear in expressing the new basis in terms of the basis in (37.14.7), are given by Racahpolynomials of variables, as shown in Iliev and Xu (2017).
