We study a family of orthogonal polynomials which satisfy (apart from a 3-term recurrence relation) an eigenvalue equation involving a third order differential operator of Dunkl-type. The orthogonality measure of these polynomials consists…
Given a sequence of polynomials $(p_n)_n$, an algebra of operators $\mathcal A$ acting in the linear space of polynomials and an operator $D_p\in \mathcal A$ with $D_p(p_n)=\theta_np_n$, where $\theta_n$ is any arbitrary eigenvalue, we…
In [Castillo \& Mbouna, Indag. Math. {\bf 31} (2020) 223-234], the concept of $\pi_N$-coherent pairs of order $(m,k)$ with index $M$ is introduced. This definition, implicitly related with the standard derivative operator, automatically…
Orthogonal polynomials with respect to the hypergeometric distribution on lattices in polyhedral domains in ${\mathbb R}^d$, which include hexagons in ${\mathbb R}^2$ and truncated tetrahedrons in ${\mathbb R}^3$, are defined and studied.…

A general classification of linear differential and finite-difference operators possessing a finite-dimensional invariant subspace with a polynomial basis (the generalized Bochner problem) is given. The main result is that any operator with…
We consider the zeros of exceptional orthogonal polynomials (XOP). Exceptional orthogonal polynomials were originally discovered as eigenfunctions of second order differential operators that exist outside the classical Bochner-Brenke…
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…
The Brenke type generating functions are the polynomial generating functions of the form $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}{P_n(x )\over n!}t^n=A(t)B(xt), $$ where $A$ and $B$ are two formal power series subject to the conditions…
We consider the eigenvalue problem associated with the Dunkl-type differential operator (in which the reflection operator R is involved) L = dx R + v(x), (v(-x) = -v(x)), in the context of supersymmetric quantum mechanical models. By…
We introduce the concept of $\D$-operators associated to a sequence of polynomials $(p_n)_n$ and an algebra $\A$ of operators acting in the linear space of polynomials. In this paper, we show that this concept is a powerful tool to generate…
We study differential operators associated with families of polynomials orthonormal with respect to certain measures. These operators, when applied to the Fourier transforms of such measures, produce basis functions for expansions of…
Burchnall and Chaundy showed that if two ODOs $P$, $Q$ with analytic coefficients commute there exists a polynomial $f(\lambda ,\mu)$ with complex coefficients such that $f(P,Q)=0$, called the BC-polynomial. This polynomial can be computed…
A classical result due to Bochner classifies the orthogonal polynomials on the real line which are common eigenfunctions of a second order linear differential operator. We settle a natural version of the Bochner problem on the unit circle…
Functions like the exponential, Chebyshev polynomials, and monomial symmetric polynomials are preeminent among all special functions. They have simple definitions and can be expressed using easily specified integers like n!. Families of…
The relation between the spectral decomposition of a self-adjoint operator which is realizable as a higher order recurrence operator and matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials is investigated. A general construction of such operators from…

Following the pioneering work of Duistermaat and Gr\"unbaum, we call a family $\{p_n(x)\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ of polynomials bispectral, if the polynomials are simultaneously eigenfunctions of two commutative algebras of operators: one…
The problem of finding measures whose orthogonal polynomials are also eigenfunctions of higher-order difference operators have been recently solved by multiplying the classical discrete measures by suitable polynomials. This problem was…
