Infinitely many explicit solutions of certain second-order differential equations with an apparent singularity of characteristic exponent -2 are constructed by adjusting the parameter of the multi-indexed Laguerre polynomials.

We study the following problem: describe the triplets $(\Omega,g,\mu)$, $\mu=\rho\,dx$, where $g= (g^{ij}(x))$ is the (co)metric associated with the symmetric second order differential operator $L (f) = \frac{1}{\rho}\sum_{ij} \partial_i…

Formally symmetric differential operators on weighted Hardy-Hilbert spaces are analyzed, along with adjoint pairs of differential operators. Eigenvalue problems for such operators are rather special, but include many of the classical…

We investigate the type I and type II multiple orthogonal polynomials on an $r$-star with weight function $|x|^{\beta}e^{-x^r}$, with $\beta>-1$. Each measure $\mu_j$, for $1\leq j \leq r$, is supported on the semi-infinite interval…

The hyperoctahedral group is the Weyl group of type B and is associated with a two-parameter family of differential-difference operators T_i, i=1,..,N (the dimension of the underlying Euclidean space). These operators are analogous to…

We construct a novel family of difference-permutation operators and prove that they are diagonalized by the wreath Macdonald $P$-polynomials; the eigenvalues are written in terms of elementary symmetric polynomials of arbitrary degree. Our…

We study polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to the modified Laguerre weight $z^{-n + \nu} e^{-Nz} (z-1)^{2b}$ in the limit where $n, N \to \infty$ with $N/n \to 1$ and $\nu$ is a fixed number in $\mathbb{R} \setminus…

We give an analog of exceptional polynomials in the matrix valued setting by considering suitable factorizations of a given second order differential operator and performing Darboux transformations. Orthogonality and density of the…

We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the integrability of the weight associated to the exceptional Laguerre polynomials. This condition is very much related to the fact that the associated second order differential operator has…

For a positive integer $n$ and a real number $\alpha$, the generalized Laguerre polynomials are defined by \begin{align*} L^{(\alpha)}_n(x)=\sum^n_{j=0}\frac{(n+\alpha)(n-1+\alpha)\cdots (j+1+\alpha)(-x)^j}{j!(n-j)!}. \end{align*} These…

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…
