We explore differential operators, $T$, that diagonalize on a simple basis, $\{B_n(x)\}_{n=0}^\infty$, with respect to some sequence of real numbers, $\{a_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$, and sequence of polynomials, $\{Q_k(x)\}_{k=0}^\infty$, as in $…

We say that the polynomial sequence $(Q^{(\lambda)}_n)$ is a semiclassical Sobolev polynomial sequence when it is orthogonal with respect to the inner product $$ <p, r>_S=<{{\bf u}} ,{p\, r}> +\lambda <{{\bf u}}, {{\mathscr D}p \,{\mathscr…

We introduce a search algorithm that utilises differential operator realisations to find polynomial Casimir operators of Lie algebras. To demonstrate the algorithm, we look at two classes of examples: (1) the model filiform Lie algebras and…

We investigate the differential equation for the Jacobi-type polynomials which are orthogonal on the interval $[-1,1]$ with respect to the classical Jacobi measure and an additional point mass at one endpoint. This scale of higher-order…

In contrast to its subalgebra $A_n:=K<x_1, ..., x_n, \frac{\der}{\der x_1}, ...,\frac{\der}{\der x_n}>$ of polynomial differential operators (i.e. the $n$'th Weyl algebra), the algebra $\mI_n:=K<x_1, ..., x_n, \frac{\der}{\der x_1},…

In this article we study operators with a dimension $\Delta\sim O(N)$ and show that simple analytic expressions for the action of the dilatation operator can be found. The operators we consider are restricted Schur polynomials. There are…

We prove a Harnack inequality for distributional solutions to a type of degenerate elliptic PDEs in $N$ dimensions. The differential operators in question are related to the Kolmogorov operator, made up of the Laplacian in the last $N-1$…

We develop the theory of difference algebraic groups in the case where we have finitely many pairwise commuting difference operators. We show that the defining ideal of a difference algebraic group is finitely generated as a difference…

We develop and compare two algorithms for computing first-order right-hand factors in the ring of linear Mahler operators$\ell_r M^r + \dots + \ell_1 M + \ell_0$where $\ell_0, \dots, \ell_r$ are polynomials in~$x$ and $Mx = x^b M$ for some…

We prove that operators of the form $A=-a(x)^2\Delta^{2}$, with $|D a(x)|\leq c a(x)^\frac{1}{2}$, generate analytic semigroups in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)$ for $1<p\leq\infty$ and in $C_b(\mathbb{R}^N)$. In particular, we deduce generation…

We consider an operator-differential expression of the form $$ \ell y=\frac{d^m}{dx^m}\Big(By^{(n)}+Cy\Big), \quad 0<x<1, $$ where $B$ is a linear bounded invertible operator, while $C$ is some finite-dimensional linear operator relatively…

A multivariable hypergeometric-type formula for raising operators of the Macdonald polynomials is conjectured. It is proved that this agrees with Jing and Jozefiak's expression for the two-row Macdonald polynomials, and also with Lassalle…

For a projective variety $X$ and a line bundle $L$ over $X$, one considers the $L-$twisted global differential operator algebra $\call{D}_L(X)$ which naturally operates on the space of global sections $H^0(X,L)$. In the case where $X$ is…

A fundamental result in pseudodifferential theory is the Calder\'on-Vaillancourt theorem, which states that a pseudodifferential operator defined from a H\"ormander symbol of order $0$ defines a bounded operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$. In…

We determine necessary and sufficient conditions on the ring of differential operators of a finite purely inseparable field extension of positive characteristic for determining whether the extension is modular.

We study the effect of finite difference operators of finite order on the distribution of zeros of polynomials and entire functions.

Given a sequence of polynomials $(p_n)_n$, an algebra of operators $\mathcal{A}$ acting in the linear space of polynomials and an operator $D_p\in \mathcal{A}$ with $D_p(p_n)=np_n$, we form a new sequence of polynomials $(q_n)_n$ by…

A differential operator of weight $\lambda$ is the algebraic abstraction of the difference quotient $d_\lambda(f)(x):=\big(f(x+\lambda)-f(x)\big)/\lambda$, including both the derivation as $\lambda$ approaches to $0$ and the difference…

We present a method to decompose a set of multivariate real polynomials into linear combinations of univariate polynomials in linear forms of the input variables. The method proceeds by collecting the first-order information of the…

We give a general method to construct a complete set of linearly independent Casimir operators of a Lie algebra with rank N. For a Casimir operator of degree p, this will be provided by an explicit calculation of its symmetric coefficients…
