Matrix Valued Classical Pairs Related to Compact Gelfand Pairs of Rank One
We present a method to obtain infinitely many examples of pairs (W,D) consisting of a matrix weight W in one variable and a symmetric second-order differential operator D. The method is based on a uniform construction of matrix valued polynomials starting from compact Gelfand pairs (G,K) of rank one...

The method is based on a uniform construction of matrix valued polynomials starting from compact Gelfand pairs (G,K) of rank one and a suitable irreducible K-representation. The heart of the construction is the existence of a suitable base change Ψ₀. We analyze the base change and derive several properties. The most important one is that Ψ₀ satisfies a first-order differential equation which enables us to compute the radial part of the Casimir operator of the group G as soon as we have an explicit expression for Ψ0. The weight W is also determined by Ψ₀. We provide an algorithm to calculate Ψ₀ explicitly. For the pair (USp(2n),USp(2n−2)×USp(2)) we have implemented the algorithm in GAP so that individual pairs (W,D) can be calculated explicitly. Finally we classify the Gelfand pairs (G,K) and the K-representations that yield pairs (W,D) of size 2×2 and we provide explicit expressions for most of these cases. |
