On Finite Exceptional Orthogonal Polynomial Sequences Composed of Rational Darboux Transforms of Romanovski-Jacobi Polynomials

Abstract

The paper presents the united analysis of the finite exceptional orthogonal polynomial (EOP) sequences composed of rational Darboux transforms of Romanovski-Jacobi polynomials. It is shown that there are four distinguished exceptional differential polynomial systems (X-Jacobi DPSs) of series J1, J2, J3, and W. The first three X-DPSs formed by pseudo-Wronskians of two Jacobi polynomials contain both exceptional orthogonal polynomial systems (X-Jacobi OPSs) on the interval (−1, +1) and the finite EOP sequences on the positive interval (1, ∞). On the contrary, the X-DPS of series W formed by Wronskians of two Jacobi polynomials contains only (infinitely many) finite EOP sequences on the interval (1, ∞). In addition, the paper rigorously examines the three isospectral families of the associated Liouville potentials (rationally extended hyperbolic Pöschl-Teller potentials of types a, b, and a′) exactly quantized by the EOPs in question.
