The weight W and the differential operator D were found in [12], using some aspects of the theory of the spherical functions associated to the complex projective spaces. We also find other second order differential operator E symmetric with respect to W and we describe the algebra generated by D and E.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-02-16T17:53:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C45" ], "keywords": [ "matrix valued orthogonal polynomials", "spherical functions", "second order differential operator" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007math......2494P" } } }
