In the general case, given by , we compute the roots , , , say, of the cubic equation ; see §1.11(iii). These roots are necessarily distinct and represent , , in some order.
If and are real, and the discriminant is positive, that is , then , , can be identified via (23.5.1), and , obtained from (23.6.16).
If , or and are not both real, then we label , , so that the triangle with vertices , , is positively oriented and is its longest side (chosen arbitrarily if there is more than one). In particular, if , , are collinear, then we label them so that is on the line segment . In consequence, , satisfy (with strict inequality unless , , are collinear); also , .
Finally, on taking the principal square roots of and we obtain values for and that lie in the 1st and 4th quadrants, respectively, and , are given by
where denotes the arithmetic-geometric mean (see §§19.8(i) and 22.20(ii)). This process yields 2 possible pairs (, ), corresponding to the 2 possible choices of the square root.

We included the case .
This recurrence relation which was previously given for Pollaczek polynomials of type 2 (the case ) has been updated for Pollaczek polynomials of type 3.
The descriptions for the paths of integration of the Mellin-Barnes integrals (8.6.10)–(8.6.12) have been updated. The description for (8.6.11) now states that the path of integration is to the right of all poles. Previously it stated incorrectly that the path of integration had to separate the poles of the gamma function from the pole at . The paths of integration for (8.6.10) and (8.6.12) have been clarified. In the case of (8.6.10), it separates the poles of the gamma function from the pole at for . In the case of (8.6.12), it separates the poles of the gamma function from the poles at .
