We introduce a generalization $G^{(\alpha)}(X)$ of the truncated logarithm $\mathcal{L}_1(X) = \sum_{k=1}^{p-1}X^k/k$ in characteristic $p$, which depends on a parameter $\alpha$. The main motivation of this study is $G^{(\alpha)}(X)$ being…

We show that the Galois group of a random monic polynomial %of degree $d>12$ with integer coefficients between $-N$ and $N$ is NOT $S_d$ with probability $\ll \frac{\log^{\Omega(d)}N}{N}.$ Conditionally on NOTbeing the full symmetric group,…

A linear functional $\bf u$ is classical if there exist polynomials, $\phi$ and $\psi$, with $\deg \phi\le 2$, $\deg \psi=1$, such that ${\mathscr D}\left(\phi(x) {\bf u}\right)=\psi(x){\bf u}$, where ${\mathscr D}$ is a certain…

Orthogonality of the Jacobi and of Laguerre polynomials, P_n^(a,b) and L_n^(a), is established for a,b complex (a,b not negative integers and a+b different from -2,-3,...) using the Hadamard finite part of the integral which gives their…

An interesting discovery in the last two years in the field of mathematical physics has been the exceptional $X_\ell$ Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials. Unlike the well-known classical orthogonal polynomials which start with constant terms,…

We study the problem of existence of one-parameter, linear families of polynomials of degree n all of whose polynomials have Galois group A_n. The methods we use have a strong geometric flavour.

We study the asymptotic zero distribution of the rescaled Laguerre polynomials, $\displaystyle L_n^{(\alpha_n)}(nz)$, with the parameter $\alpha_n$ varying in such a way that $\displaystyle \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}\alpha_n/n=-1$. The…

Generalization of the Euler polynomials ${{A}_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x \right)}^{n+1}}\sum\nolimits_{m=0}^{\infty }{{{m}^{n}}{{x}^{m}}}$ are the polynomials ${{\alpha }_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x…

In this study we introduce a second type of higher order generalised geometric polynomials. This we achieve by examining the generalised stirling numbers $S(n; k;\alpha;\beta;\gamma)$ [Hsu & Shiue,1998] for some negative arguments. We study…

We define the family of truncated Laguerre polynomials $P_n(x;z)$, orthogonal with respect to the linear functional $\ell$ defined by $$\langle{\ell,p\rangle}=\int_{0}^zp(x)x^\alpha e^{-x}dx,\qquad\alpha>-1.$$ The connection between…

We provide evidence for a conjecture of Yamamura that the truncated logarithmic polynomials \[ F_n(x) = 1 + x + \frac{x^2}{2} + \cdots + \frac{x^n}{n} \] have Galois group $S_n$ for all $n \geq 1$.

In this paper we propose a way to construct classical type Sobolev orthogonal polynomials. We consider two families of hypergeometric polynomials: ${}_2 F_2(-n,1;q,r;x)$ and ${}_3 F_2(-n,n-1+a+b,1;a,c;x)$ ($a,b,c,q,r>0$, $n=0,1,...$), which…

To a $2\times2$ matrix $G$ with complex entries, we relate the sequence of Laurent polynomial $L_n(z,G)=\tr \big(G\big[\begin{smallmatrix}z&0\\ 0&z^{-1}\end{smallmatrix}\big]G^{\ast}\big)^n$. It turns out that for each \(n\), the family…

We study the Galois groups of polynomials arising from a compatible family of representations with big orthogonal monodromy. We show that the Galois groups are usually as large as possible given the constraints imposed on them by a…

Three specializations of a set of orthogonal polynomials with ``8 different q's'' are given. The polynomials are identified as $q$-analogues of Laguerre polynomials, and the combinatorial interpretation of the moments give infinitely many…

Expressions for the summation of a new series involving the Laguerre polynomials are obtained in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions. These results provide alternative, and in some cases simpler, expressions to those recently…

Let $L(X)$ be a monic $q$-linearized polynomial over $F_q$ of degree $q^n$, where $n$ is an odd prime. Recently Gow and McGuire showed that the Galois group of $L(X)/X-t$ over the field of rational functions $F_q(t)$ is $GL_n(q)$ unless…
