A recurrence relation is said to have the Laurent property if all of its iterates are Laurent polynomials in the initial values with integer coefficients. We consider a family of nonlinear recurrences with the Laurent property, which were…

It is well known that Sobolev-type orthogonal polynomials with respect to measures supported on the real line satisfy higher-order recurrence relations and these can be expressed as a (2N+1)-banded symmetric semi-infinite matrix. In this…
A new recurrence relation for exceptional orthogonal polynomials is proposed, which holds for type 1, 2 and 3. As concrete examples, the recurrence relations are given for Xj-Hermite, Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials in j = 1,2 case.

The aim of the work is to construct new polynomial systems, which are solutions to certain functional equations which generalize the second-order differential equations satisfied by the so called classical orthogonal polynomial families of…
We consider a general discrete Sobolev inner product involving the Hahn difference operator, so this includes the well--known difference operators $\mathscr{D}_{q}$ and $\Delta$ and, as a limit case, the derivative operator. The objective…
Second-order polynomials generalize classical first-order ones in allowing for additional variables that range over functions rather than values. We are motivated by their applications in higher-order computational complexity theory,…
Ordinary orthogonal polynomials are uniquely characterized by the three term recurrence relations up to an overall multiplicative constant. We show that the newly discovered M-indexed orthogonal polynomials satisfy 3+2M term recurrence…
