We show that the method of separation of variables gives a natural generalisation of integral relations for classical special functions of one variable. The approach is illustrated by giving a new proof of the ``quadratic'' integral…

We derive completeness criteria for sequences of functions of the form $% f(x\lambda_{n})$, where $\lambda_{n}$ is the $nth$ zero of a suitably chosen entire function. Using these criteria, we construct systems of nonorthogonal…

In this paper, a link between $q$-difference equations, Jacobi operators and orthogonal polynomials is given. Replacing the variable $x$ by $ q^{-n}$ in a Sturm-Liouville $q$-difference equation we discovered the Jacobi operator. With…

In the lecture notes we start off with an introduction to the $q$-hypergeometric series, or basic hypergeometric series, and we derive some elementary summation and transformation results. Then the $q$-hypergeometric difference equation is…

We study realizations of polynomial deformations of the sl(2,R)- Lie algebra in terms of differential operators strongly related to bosonic operators. We also distinguish their finite- and infinite-dimensional representations. The linear,…

In this paper, we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between operator monotone functions on the nonnegative reals and finite Borel measures on the unit interval. This correspondence appears as an integral representation of…

An algebraic $q$-difference equation is considered. A sufficient condition for the existence of a formal power-logarithmic expansion of a solution to such an equation in the neighborhood of zero is proposed. An example of applying this…

By using Liu's $q$-partial differential equations theory, we prove that if an analytic function in several variables satisfies a system of $q$-partial differential equations, if and only if it can be expanded in terms of homogeneous…

Let us denote ${\cal V}$, the finite dimensional vector spaces of functions of the form $\psi(x) = p_n(x) + f(x) p_m(x)$ where $p_n(x)$ and $p_m(x)$ are arbitrary polynomials of degree at most $n$ and $m$ in the variable $x$ while $f(x)$…

We describe a new method of constructing transcendental entire functions $A$ such that the differential equation $w"+Aw=0$ has two linearly independent solutions with relatively few zeros. In particular, we solve a problem of Bank and Laine…

In this paper, we study the algebraic relations satisfied by the solutions of $q$-difference equations and their transforms with respect to an auxiliary operator. Our main tool is the parametrized Galois theories developed in two papers.…

We provide an explicit formula for the coefficient polynomials of a Hermite diagonal differential operator. The analysis of the zeros of these coefficient polynomials yields the characterization of generalized Hermite multiplier sequences…

We present a novel method to derive particular solutions for partial differential equations of the form $(\operatorname{A} + \operatorname{B})^k Q(x) = q(x)$, with $\operatorname{A}$ and $\operatorname{B}$ being linear differential…

We study infinite order differential operators acting in the spaces of exponential type entire functions. We derive conditions under which such operators preserve the set of Laguerre entire functions which consists of the polynomials…

We derive raising and lowering operators for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and find second order differential and $q$-difference equations for these polynomials. A general functional equation is found which allows one to relate…

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…

In this paper, we study uniqueness problems for an entire function that shares small functions of finite order with their difference operators. In particular, we give a generalization of results in [2,3,13].

In this work we establish some polynomials and entire functions have only real zeros. These polynomials generalize q-Laguerre polynomials $L_{n}^{(\alpha)}(x;q)$, while the entire functions are generalizations of Ramanujan's entire function…

Consider in a real Hilbert space $H$ the differential equation (inclusion) $(E)$: $p(t)u^{\prime \prime}(t)+q(t)u^{\prime}(t)\in Au(t)+f(t)$ for a.a. $t>0$, with the condition $(B)$: $u(0)=x \in \overline{D(A)}$, where $A\colon D(A)\subset…

Differential operators usually result in derivatives expressed as a ratio of differentials. For all but the simplest derivatives, these ratios are typically not algebraically manipulable, but must be held together as a unit in order to…
