Zeros of the Exceptional Laguerre and Jacobi Polynomials

الملخص EN

An interesting discovery in the last two years in the field of mathematical physics has been the exceptional Xℓ Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials.

Unlike the well-known classical orthogonal polynomials which start with constant terms, these new polynomials have the lowest degree ℓ=1,2,…, and yet they form complete sets with respect to some positive-definite measure.

In this paper, we study one important aspect of these new polynomials, namely, the behaviors of their zeros as some parameters of the Hamiltonians change.

Most results are of heuristic character derived by numerical analysis.
