We consider the Schur-Horn problem for normal operators in von Neumann algebras, which is the problem of characterizing the possible diagonal values of a given normal operator based on its spectral data. For normal matrices, this problem is…

Let $(p_n)_n$ be either the $q$-Meixner or the $q$-Laguerre polynomials. We form a new sequence of polynomials $(q_n)_n$ by considering a linear combination of two consecutive $p_n$: $q_n=p_n+\beta_np_{n-1}$, $\beta_n\in \RR$. Using the…

We give recurrence relations for any family of generalized Appell polynomials unifying so some known recurrences of many classical sequences of polynomials. Our main tool to get our goal is the Riordan group. We use the product of Riordan…

We study the notion of recurrence and some of its variations for linear operators acting on Banach spaces. We characterize recurrence for several classes of linear operators such as weighted shifts, composition operators and multiplication…

Motivated by a quaternionic formulation of quantum mechanics, we discuss quaternionic and complex linear differential equations. We touch only a few aspects of the mathematical theory, namely the resolution of the second order differential…

The Bochner Classification Theorem (1929) characterizes the polynomial sequences $\p_{n}\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$, with $\text{deg}\,p_{n}=n$ that simultaneously form a complete set of eigenstates for a second-order differential operator and are…

A third order self-adjoint differential operator with periodic boundary conditions and an one-dimensional perturbation has been considered. For this operator, we first show that the spectrum consists of simple eigenvalues and finitely many…

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…

In this paper we consider generalized eigenvalue problems for a family of operators with a polynomial dependence on a complex parameter. This problem is equivalent to a genuine non self-adjoint operator. We discuss here existence of non…

We derive a system of difference equations satisfied by the three-term recurrence coefficients of some families of discrete orthogonal polynomials.

We study a family of orthogonal polynomials which satisfy (apart from a 3-term recurrence relation) an eigenvalue equation involving a third order differential operator of Dunkl-type. The orthogonality measure of these polynomials consists…

We extend and generalize the construction of Sturm-Liouville problems for a family of Hamiltonians constrained to fulfill a third-order shape-invariance condition and focusing on the "$-2x/3$" hierarchy of solutions to the fourth Painlev\'e…

We establish new operational formulae of Burchnall type for the complex disk polynomials (generalized Zernike polynomials). We then use them to derive some interesting identities involving these polynomials. In particular, we establish…

We generalize the classical notion of adjoint of a linear operator and the Aron-Schottenloher notion of adjoint of a homogeneous polynomial. The general notion is shown to enjoy several properties enjoyed by the classical ones, nevertheless…

We extend our investigation of $2$-determinants, which we defined in a previous paper. For a linear homogenous recurrence of the second order, we consider relations between different sequences satisfying the same linear homogeneous…

Exceptional extensions of a class of Laurent biorthogonal polynomials (the so-called Hendriksen-van Rossum polynomials) have been presented by the authors recently. This is achieved through Darboux transformations of generalized eigenvalue…

In this paper, we initiate the study of a new interrelation between linear ordinary differential operators and complex dynamics which we discuss in details in the simplest case of operators of order $1$. Namely, assuming that such an…
