For a class of weight functions invariant under reflection groups on the unit ball, a family of orthogonal polynomials is defined via a Rodrigues type formula using the Dunkl operators. Their properties and their relation with several other bases are explored.

In this paper, we introduce a new differential-difference operator Tξ (ξ ∈ R ) by using projections associated to orthogonal subsystems in root systems. Similarly to Dunkl theory, we show that these operators commute and we construct an intertwining operator between Tξ and the directional derivative ∂ξ. In the case of one variable, we prove that the Kummer functions are eigenfunctions of this o...

Using Dunkl operators, we introduce a continuous family of canonical invariants of finite reflection groups. We verify that the elementary canonical invariants of the symmetric group are deformations of the elementary symmetric polynomials. We also compute the canonical invariants for all dihedral groups as certain hypergeometric functions.

We give some interest in radial Dunkl processes associated with dihedral systems. We write down the semi group density and as a by-product the generalized Bessel function and the W -invariant generalized Hermite polynomials. Then, a skew product decomposition, involving only independent Bessel processes, is given and the tail distribution of the first hitting time of boundary of the Weyl chambe...

Abstract We investigate some spectral properties of a second order differential-difference operator $$J_{\alpha ,\beta }$$ J α , β on $$L^2((-\pi ,\pi ),d\mu _{\alpha , \beta })$$ L <mm...

We consider the quantum angular momentum generators, deformed by means of the Dunkl operators. Together with the reflection operators they generate a subalgebra in the rational Cherednik algebra associated with a finite real reflection group. We find all the defining relations of the algebra, which appear to be quadratic, and we show that the algebra is of Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt (PBW) type. We ...

We introduce an algebra H consisting of difference-reflection operators and multiplication operators that can be considered as a q = 1 analogue of Sahi's double affine Hecke algebra related to the affine root system of type (C ∨ 1 , C1). We study eigenfunctions of a Dunkl-Cherednik-type operator in the algebra H, and the corresponding Fourier transforms. These eigenfunctions are non-symmetric v...

Abstract. Integrability, algebraic structures and orthogonal basis of the Calogero model are studied by the quantum Lax and Dunkl operator formulations. The commutator algebra among operators including conserved operators and creation-annihilation operators has the structure of the W-algebra. Through an algebraic construction of the simultaneous eigenfunctions of all the commuting conserved ope...

We generalize a construction of Dunkl, obtaining a wide class intertwining functions on the symmetric group and a related family of multidimensional Hahn polynomials. Following a suggestion of Vilenkin and Klymik, we develop a tree-method approach for those intertwining functions. We also give a group theoretic proof of the relation between Hahn polynomials and Clebesh-Gordan coefficients, give...
