The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}_{q}(1|2)$ is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a $q$-deformation of the Bannai-Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$…
In an earlier work [K. Castillo et al., J. Math. Anal. Appl., 514 (2022) 126358], we give positive answer to the first, and apparently more easy, part of a conjecture of M. Ismail concerning the characterization of the continuous $q$-Jacobi…
Recently, the non-linear Changhee differential equations were introduced in [5] and these differential equations turned out to be very useful for studying special polynomials and mathematical physics. Some interesting identities and…
Previous research on exceptional units has primarily focused on the ring of rational integers or abstract finite rings, often restricted to linear or quadratic constraints. In this paper, we extend the concept of polynomial-type exceptional…
We observe that the linearization coefficients for ultraspherical polynomials are the orthogonality weights for Racah polynomials with special parameters. Then it turns out that the linearization sum with such a Racah polynomial as extra…
In this paper, by introducing new matrix operations and using a specific inverse relation, we establish the dual forms of the orthogonality relations for some well-known discrete and continuous $q$-orthogonal polynomials from the…
In his monograph [Classical and quantum orthogonal polynomials in one variable, Cambridge University Press, 2005 (paperback edition 2009)], Ismail conjectured that certain structure relations involving the Askey-Wilson operator characterize…
Boelen et al. (2010) deduced a $q$-discrete Painlev\'e equation satisfied by the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials and conjectured that the equation had a unique positive solution. We prove their conjecture and discuss…
Schneps [J. Lie Theory 16 (2006), 19--37] has found surprising links between Ihara brackets and even period polynomials. These results can be recovered and generalized by considering some identities relating Ihara brackets and classical Lie…
The exceptional $X_{1}$-Jacobi differential expression is a second-order ordinary differential expression with rational coefficients; it was discovered by G\'{o}mez-Ullate, Kamran and Milson in 2009. In their work, they showed that there is…
It is well known that the classical families of orthogonal polynomials are characterized as eigenfunctions of a second order linear differential/difference operator. In this paper we present a study of classical orthogonal polynomials in a…
We show how all the quantal systems related to the exceptional Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials can be constructed in a direct and systematic way, without the need of shape invariance and Darboux-Crum transformation. Furthermore, the…
We give positive answer to two conjectures posed by M. E. H Ismail in his monograph [Classical and quantum orthogonal polynomials in one variable, Cambridge University Press, 2005].
Sequences of orthogonal polynomials that are alternative to the Jacobi polynomials on the interval $[0,1]$ are defined and their properties are established. An $(\alpha,\beta)$-parameterized system of orthogonal polynomials of the…
In 2013, Pak and Panova proved the strict unimodality property of $q$-binomial coefficients $\binom{\ell+m}{m}_q$ (as polynomials in $q$) based on the combinatorics of Young tableaux and the semigroup property of Kronecker coefficients.…
Scattered polynomials over finite fields attracted an increasing attention in the last years. One of the reasons is their deep connection with Maximum Rank Distance (MRD) codes. Known classification results for exceptional scattered…
In this paper, we take advantage of the Mellin type derivative to produce some new families of polynomials whose coefficients involve r-Lah numbers. One of these polynomials leads to rediscover many of the identities of r-Lah numbers. We…
Three $q$-versions of Lommel polynomials are studied. Included are explicit representations, recurrences, continued fractions, and connections to associated Askey--Wilson polynomials. Combinatorial results are emphasized, including a…
In this paper we study the orthogonality conditions satisfied by the classical q-orthogonal polynomials that are located at the top of the q-Hahn tableau (big q-jacobi polynomials (bqJ)) and the Nikiforov-Uvarov tableau (Askey-Wilson…
Multivariate versions of classical orthogonal polynomials such as Jacobi, Hahn, Laguerre and Meixner are reviewed and their connection explored by adopting a probabilistic approach. Hahn and Meixner polynomials are interpreted as posterior…
