We show that several families of classical orthogonal polynomials on the real line are also orthogonal on the interior of an ellipse in the complex plane, subject to a weighted planar Lebesgue measure. In particular these include Gegenbauer…
We present an algorithm for determining all inequivalent abelian symmetries of non-degenerate quasi-homogeneous polynomials and apply it to the recently constructed complete set of Landau--Ginzburg potentials for $N=2$ superconformal field…
The fundamental theorem of symmetric polynomials over rings is a classical result which states that every unital commutative ring is fully elementary, i.e. we can express symmetric polynomials with elementary ones in a unique way. The…
The authors prepared this booklet in order to make several useful topics from the theory of special functions, in particular the spherical harmonics and Legendre polynomials for any dimension, available to undergraduates studying physics or…

We introduce a general framework for the construction of polynomial frames in $L^2(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$, $d \geq 3$, where the frame functions are obtained as rotated versions of an initial sequence of polynomials $\Psi^j$, $j\in…
In this survey, we outline the role of G-functions in arithmetic geometry, notably their link with Picard-Fuchs differential equations and periods. We explain how polynomial relations between special values of G-functions arising from a…

The Clifford-Hermite and the Clifford-Gegenbauer polynomials of standard Clifford analysis are generalized to the new framework of Clifford analysis in superspace in a merely symbolic way. This means that one does not a priori need an…

Strong pairing correlations are responsible for superconductivity and off-diagonal long range order in the two-particle density matrix. The antisymmetrized geminal power wave function was championed many years ago as the simplest model that…
