What is beyond coherent pairs of orthogonal polynomials? (English) Zbl 0855.42016

Two quasi-definite linear functionals \(u_0\) and \(u_1\) constitute a coherent pair when the corresponding monic orthogonal polynomial systems, \(\{P_n\}_n\) and \(\{T_n\}_n\), satisfy \[ T_n (x) = {P_{n + 1}' (x) \over n + 1} - \sigma_n {P_n' (x) \over n},\;n \geq 1, \tag{*} \] where \(\sigma_n\) are nonzero real numbers. The authors fix one of the monic orthogonal polynomial systems \((P_n\) or \(T_n)\) and study conditions on \(\{\sigma_n\}\) that make the second sequence, given by (*), to be orthogonal.
Furthermore, the symmetric coherence of \(u_0\) and \(u_1\) is defined by a relation analogous to (*), but where \(P_{n + 1}\) and \(P_{n - 1}\) are involved. The construction of symmetrically coherent pairs of functionals from the usual coherence is also investigated.
