Path integral formulation for Dunkl-Dirac oscillator in (1+1)-dimensional space-time coordinates

In this paper, we extend the path integral formalism for the Dirac oscillator in (1+1) dimension by replacing the spatial derivative with the Dunkl derivative. Utilizing representations in position space-time coordinates, we precisely calculate the propagator, expressed in terms of generalized Hermite polynomials. The energy eigenvalues of the electron, along with their corresponding wave functions, are determined. In special cases, we can precisely evaluate the non-relativistic energy eigenvalues and wave functions, even in the absence of Dunkl parameters.

Hermite, Higher order Hermite, Laguerre type polynomials and Burgers like equations

The multivariable version of ordinary and generalized Hermite polynomials are the natural solutions of the classical heat equation and of its higher order versions. We derive the associated Burgers equations and show that analogous non-linear partial differential equations can be derived for Laguerre polynomials. The starting point of this extension is the Laguerre diffusive equation, whose nonlinear extension reveals interesting implications involving families of mixed polynomials. In this way we have a general scheme to obtain new exact explicit solutions for nonlinear PDEs by using Laguerre, Hermite and other families of polynomials of Appèl and non-Appèl type.

A NEW CHARACTERIZATION OF SYMMETRIC DUNKL AND \(q\)-DUNKL-CLASSICAL ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS

In this paper, we consider the following \(\mathcal{L}\)-difference equation$$\Phi(x) \mathcal{L}P_{n+1}(x)=(\xi_nx+\vartheta_n)P_{n+1}(x)+\lambda_nP_{n}(x),\quad n\geq0,$$where \(\Phi\) is a monic polynomial (even), \(\deg\Phi\leq2\), \(\xi_n,\,\vartheta_n,\,\lambda_n,\,n\geq0\), are complex numbers and \(\mathcal{L}\) is either the Dunkl operator \(T_\mu\) or the the \(q\)-Dunkl operator \(T_{(\theta,q)}\). We show that if \(\mathcal{L}=T_\mu\), then the only symmetric orthogonal polynomials satisfying the previous equation are, up a dilation, the generalized Hermite polynomials and the generalized Gegenbauer polynomials and if \(\mathcal{L}=T_{(\theta,q)}\), then the \(q^2\)-analogue of generalized Hermite and the \(q^2\)-analogue of generalized Gegenbauer polynomials are, up a dilation, the only orthogonal polynomials sequences satisfying the \(\mathcal{L}\)-difference equation.

Rationally-extended Dunkl oscillator on the line

It is shown that the extensions of exactly-solvable quantum mechanical problems connected with the replacement of ordinary derivatives by Dunkl ones and with that of classical orthogonal polynomials by exceptional orthogonal ones can be easily combined. For such a purpose, the example of the Dunkl oscillator on the line is considered and three different types of rationally-extended Dunkl oscillators are constructed. The corresponding wavefunctions are expressed in terms of exceptional orthogonal generalized Hermite polynomials, defined in terms of the three different types of X m -Laguerre exceptional orthogonal polynomials. Furthermore, the extended Dunkl oscillator Hamiltonians are shown to be expressible in terms of some extended Dunkl derivatives and some anharmonic oscillator potentials.

Large-Degree Asymptotics of Rational Painlevé-IV Solutions by the Isomonodromy Method

The Painlevé-IV equation has two families of rational solutions generated, respectively, by the generalized Hermite polynomials and the generalized Okamoto polynomials. We apply the isomonodromy method to represent all of these rational solutions by means of two related Riemann–Hilbert problems, each of which involves two integer-valued parameters related to the two parameters in the Painlevé-IV equation. We then use the steepest-descent method to analyze the rational solutions in the limit that at least one of the parameters is large. Our analysis provides rigorous justification for formal asymptotic arguments that suggest that in general solutions of Painlevé-IV with large parameters behave either as an algebraic function or an elliptic function. Moreover, the results show that the elliptic approximation holds on the union of a curvilinear rectangle and, in the case of the generalized Okamoto rational solutions, four curvilinear triangles each of which shares an edge with the rectangle; the algebraic approximation is valid in the complementary unbounded domain. We compare the theoretical predictions for the locations of the poles and zeros with numerical plots of the actual poles and zeros obtained from the generating polynomials, and find excellent agreement.

On the general family of third-order shape-invariant Hamiltonians related to generalized Hermite polynomials

This work reports and classifies the most general construction of rational quantum potentials in terms of the generalized Hermite polynomials. This is achieved by exploiting the intrinsic relation between third-order shape-invariant Hamiltonians and the −1/x and −2x hierarchies of rational solutions of the fourth Painlevé equation. Such a relation unequivocally establishes the discrete spectrum structure, composed as the union of a finite- and infinite-dimensional sequence of equidistant eigenvalues separated by a gap. The two indices of the generalized Hermite polynomials define the dimension of the finite sequence and the gap. Likewise, the complete set of eigensolutions decomposes into two disjoint subsets, whose elements are written as the product of a polynomial times a weight function supported on the real line. These polynomials fulfill a second-order differential equation and are alternatively determined from a three-term recurrence relation, the initial conditions of which are also fixed in terms of generalized Hermite polynomials.

On Spectral Vectorial Differential Equation of Generalized Hermite Polynomials

In this paper, we first give some results on monic generalized Hermite polynomials (GHP) {Hn(μ)(x)}n≥0, orthogonal with respect to the positive weight |x|2μe−x2,μ>−12,x∈R, which will lead to the formulation of the second-order spectralvectorial differential equation (SVDE) that the GHP satisfies. This SVDE differs from the one given in G. Szego (problem 25. p. 380), which is a pseudo-spectral equation. Second, we give the SVDE, as conjecture, satisfied by the generalized Jacobi polynomials Jn(α,α+1)(x,μ), orthogonal with respect to the positive weight w(x,α;μ)=|x|−μ(1−x2)α(1−x), μ<1, α>−1 on [−1,1].

Free boson realization of the Dunkl intertwining operator in one dimension

The operator that intertwines between the [Formula: see text]-Dunkl operator and the derivative is shown to have a realization in terms of the oscillator operators in one dimension. This observation rests on the fact that the Dunkl intertwining operator maps the Hermite polynomials on the generalized Hermite polynomials.

Generalized Hermite polynomials for the Burgers hierarchy and point vortices

Rational solutions of equations for the Burgers hierarchy are considered. Using self-similar variables this hierarchy is reduced to the family of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Then the family is transformed to the hierarchy of non-autonomous linear differential equations by means of the Cole-Hopf formula. This hierarchy is a generalization of the second-order equation for Hermite polynomials. It is shown that every member of the hierarchy for ordinary differential equation has the solution in the form of polynomials. Properties of solutions of generalized Hermite equations in the form the special polynomials are studied. A recursion relation that can be used for finding corresponding polynomials for every member is given. It is proved that the well-known property for Hermite polynomials connecting two polynomials can be used for all polynomials of the generalized Hermite hierarchy. It is shown that the Cole-Hopf transformation is a direct consequence of the differential connection between two special polynomials in the hierarchy of Hermite equations. A derivation of the generalized Tkachenko equations is given for polynomials of the generalized Hermite hierarchy whose roots correspond to point vortices in the background flow.

Roots of generalised Hermite polynomials when both parameters are large

We study the roots of the generalised Hermite polynomials H m,n when both m and n are large. We prove that the roots, when appropriately rescaled, densely fill a bounded quadrilateral region, called the elliptic region, and organise themselves on a deformed rectangular grid, as was numerically observed by Clarkson. We describe the elliptic region and the deformed grid in terms of elliptic integrals and their degenerations.

Algebra, coherent states, generalized Hermite polynomials, and path integrals for fractional statistics—Interpolating from fermions to bosons

This article constructs the Hilbert space for the algebra αβ − eiθβα = 1 that provides a continuous interpolation between the Clifford and Heisenberg algebras—this particular form is inspired by the properties of anyons. We study the eigenvalues of a generalized number operator (N=βα) and construct the Hilbert space, classified by values of a complex coordinate (λ0): the eigenvalues lie on a circle. For θ being an irrational multiple of 2π, we get an infinite-dimensional representation; however, for a rational multiple (MN) of 2π, it is finite-dimensional, parameterized by the complex coordinate λ0. The case for N = 2, θ = π is the usual Clifford algebra for fermions, while the case for N = ∞, θ = 0 is the Heisenberg algebra of bosons, albeit with two copies for positive and negative eigenvalues. We find a smooth transition from the fermion to the boson situation as N → ∞ from N = 2. After constructing the Hilbert space from the algebra, the cases for N = 2, 3 can be mapped to the “fuzzy sphere” of SU(2), while for general N, the “fuzzy pancake” is found to be the correct representation. Then, we motivate the study of coherent states, which are the eigenstates of α (the lowering operator), labeled by complex numbers for non-zero λ0. We specialize the study of coherent states to the very interesting case of λ0 = 0 and construct a calculus of the generalized Grassmann variables that result, applying it to compute a partition function for these particles. We then make some remarks about extending this study to that of anyons.

A Note on Bi-Orthogonal Polynomials and Functions

The theory of orthogonal polynomials is well established and detailed, covering a wide field of interesting results, as, in particular, for solving certain differential equations. On the other side the concepts and the related formalism of the theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials is less developed and much more limited. By starting from the orthogonality properties satisfied from the ordinary and generalized Hermite polynomials, it is possible to derive a further family (known in literature) of these kind of polynomials, which are bi-orthogonal with their adjoint. This aspect allows us to introduce functions recognized as bi-orthogonal and investigate generalizations of families of orthogonal polynomials

Fractional Supersymmetric Hermite Polynomials

We provide a realization of fractional supersymmetry quantum mechanics of order r, where the Hamiltonian and the supercharges involve the fractional Dunkl transform as a Klein type operator. We construct several classes of functions satisfying certain orthogonality relations. These functions can be expressed in terms of the associated Laguerre orthogonal polynomials and have shown that their zeros are the eigenvalues of the Hermitian supercharge. We call them the supersymmetric generalized Hermite polynomials.

Generating functions for generalized Hermite polynomials associated with parabolic cylinder functions

ABSTRACTIn this article, we first give some basic properties of generalized Hermite polynomials associated with parabolic cylinder functions. We next use Weisnerś group theoretic method and operational rules method to establish new generating functions for these generalized Hermite polynomials. The operational methods we use allow us to obtain unilateral, bilinear and bilateral generating functions by using the same procedure. Applications of generating functions obtained by Weisnerś group theoretic method are discussed.

Generalized Hermite Polynomials and Monodromy-Free Schrödinger Operators

The paper gives a review of recent progress in the classification of monodromy-free Schr\"odinger operators with rational potentials. We concentrate on a class of potentials constituted by generalized Hermite polynomials. These polynomials defined as Wronskians of classic Hermite polynomials appear in a number of mathematical physics problems as well as in the theory of random matrices and 1D SUSY quantum mechanics. Being quadratic at infinity, those potentials demonstrate localized oscillatory behavior near the origin. We derive an explicit condition of non-singularity of the corresponding potentials and estimate a localization range with respect to indices of polynomials and distribution of their zeros in the complex plane. It turns out that 1D SUSY quantum non-singular potentials come as a dressing of the harmonic oscillator by polynomial Heisenberg algebra ladder operators. To this end, all generalized Hermite polynomials are produced by appropriate periodic closure of this algebra which leads to rational solutions of the Painlev\'e IV equation. We discuss the structure of the discrete spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators and its link to the monodromy-free condition.

Durfee Rectangles and Pseudo‐Wronskian Equivalences for Hermite Polynomials

AbstractWe derive identities between determinants whose entries are Hermite polynomials. These identities have a combinatorial interpretation in terms of Maya diagrams, partitions and Durfee rectangles, and serve to characterize an equivalence class of rational Darboux transformations. Since the determinants have different orders, we analyze the problem of finding the minimal order determinant in each equivalence class, and describe the solution using an elegant graphical interpretation. The results are applied to provide a more efficient representation for exceptional Hermite polynomials and for rational solutions of the Painlevé IV equation. The latter are expressed in terms of the Okamoto and generalized Hermite polynomials.

Large-Degree Asymptotics of Rational Painlevé-IV Functions Associated to Generalized Hermite Polynomials

Abstract The Painlevé-IV equation has three families of rational solutions generated by the generalized Hermite polynomials. Each family is indexed by two positive integers $m$ and $n$. These functions have applications to nonlinear wave equations, random matrices, fluid dynamics, and quantum mechanics. Numerical studies suggest the zeros and poles form a deformed $n\times m$ rectangular grid. Properly scaled, the zeros and poles appear to densely fill certain curvilinear rectangles as $m,n\to \infty $ with $r:=m/n$ a fixed positive real number. Generalizing a method of Bertola and Bothner [2] used to study rational Painlevé-II functions, we express the generalized Hermite rational Painlevé-IV functions in terms of certain non-Hermitian orthogonal polynomials. Using the Deift–Zhou nonlinear steepest-descent method, we asymptotically analyze the associated Riemann–Hilbert problem in the limit $n\to \infty $ with $m=r\cdot n$ for $r$ fixed. We obtain an explicit characterization of the boundary curve and determine the leading-order asymptotic expansion of the rational Painlevé-IV functions associated to generalized Hermite polynomials in the pole-free region.
