In previous work a higher rank generalization $R(n)$ of the Racah algebra was defined abstractly. The special case of rank one encodes the bispectrality of the univariate Racah polynomials and is known to admit an explicit realization in…
The rank-$1$ Racah algebra $R(3)$ plays a pivotal role in the theory of superintegrable systems. It appears as the symmetry algebra of the $3$-parameter system on the $2$-sphere from which all second-order conformally flat superintegrable…
The kernel of the $\mathbb{Z}_2^{n}$ Dirac-Dunkl operator is examined. The symmetry algebra $\mathcal{A}_{n}$ of the associated Dirac-Dunkl equation on $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ is determined and is seen to correspond to a higher rank…
The Dirac-Dunkl operator on the 2-sphere associated to the $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$ reflection group is considered. Its symmetries are found and are shown to generate the Bannai-Ito algebra. Representations of the Bannai-Ito algebra are constructed…
We consider a generalization of the classical Laplace operator, which includes the Laplace-Dunkl operator defined in terms of the differential-difference operators associated with finite reflection groups called Dunkl operators. For this…
Construction of superintegrable systems based on Lie algebras have been introduced over the years. However, these approaches depend on explicit realisations, for instance as a differential operators, of the underlying Lie algebra. This is…
The analysis of the $\mathbb{Z}_2^{3}$ Laplace-Dunkl equation on the $2$-sphere is cast in the framework of the Racah problem for the Hopf algebra $sl_{-1}(2)$. The related Dunkl-Laplace operator is shown to correspond to a quadratic…

Recent results on the Racah algebra $\mathcal{R}_n$ of rank $n - 2$ are reviewed. $\mathcal{R}_n$ is defined in terms of generators and relations and sits in the centralizer of the diagonal action of $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ in…
The analysis of the most general second-order superintegrable system in two dimensions: the generic 3-parameter model on the 2-sphere, is cast in the framework of the Racah problem for the su(1,1) algebra. The Hamiltonian of the 3-parameter…
We consider the generic quantum superintegrable system on the $d$-sphere with potential $V(y)=\sum_{k=1}^{d+1}\frac{b_k}{y_k^2}$, where $b_k$ are parameters. Appropriately normalized, the symmetry operators for the Hamiltonian define a…
The goals of this paper are threefold. First, we provide a new ''universal'' definition for the Racah algebra of rank 2 as an extension of the rank-1 Racah algebra where the generators are indexed by subsets and any three disjoint indexing…
The higher rank Racah algebra $R(n)$ introduced recently is recalled. A quotient of this algebra by central elements, which we call the special Racah algebra $sR(n)$, is then introduced. Using results from classical invariant theory, this…
We review some aspects of the Racah algebra $R(n)$, including the closure relations, pointing out their role in superintegrability, as well as in the description of the symmetry algebra for several models with coalgebra symmetry. The…
The Racah algebra $R(n)$ of rank $(n-2)$ is obtained as the commutant of the \mbox{$\mathfrak{o}(2)^{\oplus n}$} subalgebra of $\mathfrak{o}(2n)$ in oscillator representations of the universal algebra of $\mathfrak{o}(2n)$. This result is…
The universal character of the Racah algebra will be illustrated by showing that it is at the center of the relations between the Racah polynomials, the recoupling of three su(1,1) representations and the symmetries of the generic…
The Racah algebra and its higher rank extension are the algebras underlying the univariate and multivariate Racah polynomials. In this paper we develop two new models in which the Racah algebra naturally arises as symmetry algebra, namely…

We consider the symmetry algebra generated by the total angular momentum operators, appearing as constants of motion of the $\mathrm{S}_3$ Dunkl Dirac equation. The latter is a deformation of the Dirac equation by means of Dunkl operators,…
The Dunkl-Coulomb system in the plane is considered. The model is defined in terms of the Dunkl Laplacian, which involves reflection operators, with a $r^{-1}$ potential. The system is shown to be maximally superintegrable and exactly…
