Polynomials known as Multiple Orthogonal Polynomials in a single variable are polynomials that satisfy orthogonality conditions concerning multiple measures and play a significant role in several applications such as Hermite-Pad\'e…
In one variable, there exists a satisfactory classification of commutative rings of differential operators. In several variables, even the simplest generalizations seem to be unknown and in this report we give examples and pose questions…
We study the algebra of invariant differential operators on a certain homogeneous vector bundle over a Riemannian symmetric space of type $A_2$. We computed radial parts of its generators explicitly to obtain matrix-valued commuting…
Polynomials commute under composition are referred to as commuting polynomials. In this paper, we study division properties for commuting polynomials with rational (and integer) coefficients. As a consequence, we show an algebraic…
We construct a set $M_d$ whose points parametrize families of Meixner polynomials in $d$ variables. There is a natural bispectral involution $b$ on $M_d$ which corresponds to a symmetry between the variables and the degree indices of the…
A combinatorial theory for type $R_I$ orthogonal polynomials is given. The ingredients include weighted generalized Motzkin paths, moments, continued fractions, determinants, and histories. Several explicit examples in the Askey scheme are…
We present an explicit difference operator diagonalized by the Macdonald polynomials associated with an (arbitrary) admissible pair of irreducible reduced crystallographic root systems. By the duality symmetry, this gives rise to an…
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 the monic orthogonal polynomials with respect to a singularly perturbed Airy weight. By using Chen and Ismail's ladder operator approach, we derive a discrete system satisfied by the recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal…
We study certain $q$-difference raising operators for Macdonald polynomials (of type $A_{n-1}$) which are originated from the $q$-difference-reflection operators introduced in our previous paper. These operators can be regarded as a…
Connection coefficient formulas for special functions describe change of basis matrices under a parameter change, for bases formed by the special functions. Such formulas are related to branching questions in representation theory. The…
We discuss quadratic transformations for orthogonal polynomials in one and two variables. In the one-variable case we list many (or all) quadratic transformations between families in the Askey scheme or $q$-Askey scheme. In the two-variable…
We review the properties of six families of orthogonal polynomials that form the main bulk of the collection called the Askey--Wilson scheme of polynomials. We give connection coefficients between them as well as the so-called linearization…
In this paper we construct examples of commutative rings of difference operators with matrix coefficients from representation theory of quantum groups, generalizing the results of our previous paper to the $q$-deformed case. A generalized…
We prove two "master" convolution theorems for multivariate determinantal polynomials. The methods used include basic properties of what we call a "minor-orthogonal" ensemble as well as properties of the mixed discriminant of matrices. We…
It is shown that the deformed Macdonald-Ruijsenaars operators can be described as the restrictions on certain affine subvarieties of the usual Macdonald-Ruijsenaars operator in infinite number of variables. The ideals of these varieties are…
In this paper we discuss some results related to commuting ordinary differential operators of rank greater than one.
In this paper we describe two pairs of raising/lowering operators for Askey-Wilson polynomials, which result from constructions involving very different techniques. The first technique is quite elementary, and depends only on the…
We give an explicit formula for an operator that sends a wreath Macdonald polynomial to the delta function at a character associated to its partition. This allows us to prove many new results for wreath Macdonald polynomials, especially…
Self-adjoint rank two commuting ordinary differential operators are studied in this paper. Such operators with trigonometric, elliptic and rapid decay coefficients corresponding to hyperelliptic spectral curves are constructed. Some…
