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 define sets of orthogonal polynomials satisfying the additional constraint of a vanishing average. These are of interest, for example, for the study of the Hohenberg-Kohn functional for electronic or nucleonic densities and for the study…
We consider orthogonal polynomials with respect to a linear differential operator $$\mathcal{L}^{(M)}=\sum_{k=0}^{M}\rho_{k}(z)\frac{d^k}{dz^k}, $$ where $\{\rho_k\}_{k=0}^{M}$ are complex polynomials such that $deg[\rho_k]\leq k, 0\leq k…
A hypergeometric type equation satisfying certain conditions defines either a finite or an infinite system of orthogonal polynomials. We present in a unified and explicit way all these systems of orthogonal polynomials, the associated…
We construct new examples of exceptional Hahn and Jacobi polynomials. Exceptional polynomials are orthogonal polynomials with respect to a measure which are also eigenfunctions of a second order difference or differential operator. The most…
We study the irreducibility of Wronskian Hermite polynomials labelled by partitions. It is known that these polynomials factor as a power of x times a remainder polynomial. We show that the remainder polynomial is irreducible for the…
We find all polynomials solutions $P_n(x)$ of the abstract "hypergeometric" equation $L P_n(x) = \lambda_n P_n(x)$, where $L$ is a linear operator sending any polynomial of degree $n$ to a polynomial of the same degree with the property…
The theory of polynomials orthogonal with respect to one inner product is classical. We discuss the extension of this theory to multiple inner products. Examples include the Lam\'e and Heine-Stieltjes polynomials.
Consider an abstract operator $L$ which acts on monomials $x^n$ according to $L x^n= \lambda_n x^n + \nu_n x^{n-2}$ for $\lambda_n$ and $\nu_n$ some coefficients. Let $P_n(x)$ be eigenpolynomials of degree $n$ of $L$: $L P_n(x) = \lambda_n…
Given a finite set $F=\{f_1,\cdots ,f_k\}$ of nonnegative integers (written in increasing size) and a classical discrete family $(p_n)_n$ of orthogonal polynomials (Charlier, Meixner, Krawtchouk or Hahn), we consider the Casorati…
Let $\Lambda^{\mathbb{R}}$ denote the linear space over $\mathbb{R}$ spanned by $z^{k}$, $k \! \in \! \mathbb{Z}$. Define the real inner product (with varying exponential weights) $\langle \boldsymbol{\cdot},\boldsymbol{\cdot}…
A new class of bivariate poly-analytic Hermite polynomials is considered. We show that they are realizable as the Fourier-Wigner transform of the univariate complex Hermite functions and form a nontrivial orthogonal basis of the classical…
We show that the discrete Painlev\'e-type equations arising from quantum minimal surfaces are equations for recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials for indefinite hermitian products. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit formula…
We wish to investigate the $D_{\omega}$-classical orthogonal polynomials, where $D_{\omega}$ is a special case of the Hahn operator. For this purpose, we consider the problem of finding all sequences of orthogonal polynomials such that…
This semi-expository paper surveys results concerning three classes of orthogonal polynomials: in one non-hermitian variable, in several isometric non-commuting variables, and in several hermitian non-commuting variables. The emphasis is on…
The complex or non-hermitian orthogonal polynomials with analytic weights are ubiquitous in several areas such as approximation theory, random matrix models, theoretical physics and in numerical analysis, to mention a few. Due to the…
Let $(p_n)_n$ be a sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the measure $\mu$. Let $T$ be a linear operator acting in the linear space of polynomials $\PP$ and satisfying that $\dgr(T(p))=\dgr(p)-1$, for all polynomial $p$. We…
Using Casorati determinants of Hahn polynomials $(h_n^{\alpha,\beta,N})_n$, we construct for each pair $\F=(F_1,F_2)$ of finite sets of positive integers polynomials $h_n^{\alpha,\beta,N;\F}$, $n\in \sigma _\F$, which are eigenfunctions of…
