The present paper establishes a connection between the Lie algebra W_{1+infty} and the bispectral problem. We show that the manifolds of bispectral operators obtained by Darboux transformations on powers of Bessel operators are in one to…

We develop a systematic way for constructing bispectral algebras of commuting ordinary differential operators of any rank $N$. It combines and unifies the ideas of Duistermaat-Gr\"unbaum and Wilson. Our construction is completely…

The aim of this paper is to solve the bispectral problem for bispectral operators whose order is a prime number. More precisely we give a complete list of such bispectral operators. We use systematically the operator approach and in…

We prove a general theorem establishing the bispectrality of noncommutative Darboux transformations. It has a wide range of applications that establish bispectrality of such transformations for differential, difference and q-difference…

The aim of this paper is to classify the bispectral operators of any rank with regular singular points (the infinite point is the most important one). We characterise them in several ways. Probably the most important result is that they are…

For each r = (r_1, r_2,...,r_N) we construct a highest weight module M_r of the Lie algebra W_{1+infty}. The highest weight vectors are specific tau-functions of the N-th Gelfand--Dickey hierarchy. We show that these modules are quasifinite…

This paper considers Darboux transformations of a bispectral operator which preserve its bispectrality. A sufficient condition for this to occur is given, and applied to the case of generalized Airy operators of arbitrary order $r>1$. As a…

The Matrix Bochner Problem aims to classify weight matrices $W$ such that the algebra $\mathcal D(W)$, of all differential operators that have a sequence of matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials for $W$ as eigenfunctions, contains a…

We construct families of bispectral difference operators of the form a(n)T + b(n) + c(n) T^{-1} where T is the shift operator. They are obtained as discrete Darboux transformations from appropriate extensions of Jacobi operators. We…

We present methods for obtaining new solutions to the bispectral problem. We achieve this by giving its abstract algebraic version suitable for generalizations. All methods are illustrated by new classes of bispectral operators.

We define B\"acklund--Darboux transformations in Sato's Grassmannian. They can be regarded as Darboux transformations on maximal algebras of commuting ordinary differential operators. We describe the action of these transformations on…

We study quasifinite highest weight modules over the supersymmetric extension of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra on the basis of the analysis by Kac and Radul. We find that the quasifiniteness of the modules is again characterized by…

I revisit the so called "bispectral problem" introduced in a joint paper with Hans Duistermaat a long time ago, allowing now for the differential operators to have matrix coefficients and for the eigenfunctions, and one of the eigenvalues,…

A method of G. Wilson for generating commutative algebras of ordinary differential operators is extended to higher dimensions. Our construction, based on the theory of D-modules, leads to a new class of examples of commutative rings of…

In this paper, we explicitly provide expressions for a sequence of orthogonal polynomials associated with a weight matrix of size $N$ constructed from a collection of scalar weights $w_{1}, \ldots, w_{N}$: $$W(x) =…

In the mid 80's it was conjectured that every bispectral meromorphic function $\psi(x,y)$ gives rise to an integral operator $K_{\psi}(x,y)$ which possesses a commuting differential operator. This has been verified by a direct computation…

Here, Darboux's classical results about transformations with differential substitutions for hyperbolic equations are extended to the case of parabolic equations of the form $L u = \big(D^2_{x} + a(x,y) D_x + b(x,y) D_y + c(x,y)\big)u=0$. We…

We obtain an explicit classification of all $2\times 2$ real hypergeometric Bochner pairs, ie. pairs $(W(x),\mathfrak{D})$ consisting of a $2\times 2$ real hypergeometric differential operator $\mathfrak{D}$ and a $2\times 2$ weight matrix…

The bispectral problem is motivated by an effort to understand and extend a remarkable phenomenon in Fourier analysis on the real line: the operator of time-and-band limiting is an integral operator admitting a second-order differential…
