Exceptional orthogonal polynomials and the Darboux transformation

Mathematical Physics 2010-12-02 v2 math.MP

Abstract

We adapt the notion of the Darboux transformation to the context of polynomial Sturm-Liouville problems. As an application, we characterize the recently described XmX_m Laguerre polynomials in terms of an isospectral Darboux transformation. We also show that the shape-invariance of these new polynomial families is a direct consequence of the permutability property of the Darboux-Crum transformation.
