Abstract
Fix an algebraically closed field and an integer . Let denote the -algebra consisting of the matrices that have all entries in . We consider a pair of diagonalizable matrices in , each acts in an irreducible tridiagonal fashion on an eigenbasis for the other one. Such a pair is called a Leonard pair in . For a Leonard pair there is a nonzero scalar that is used to describe the eigenvalues of and . In the present paper we find all Leonard pairs in such that is lower bidiagonal with subdiagonal entries all and is irreducible tridiagonal, under the assumption that is not a root of unity. This gives a partial solution of a problem given by Paul Terwilliger.
