Description

Two sets of infinitely many exceptional orthogonal polynomials related to the Wilson and Askey-Wilson polynomials are presented. They are derived as the eigenfunctions of shape invariant and thus exactly solvable quantum mechanical Hamiltonians, which are deformations of those for the Wilson and Askey-Wilson polynomials in terms of a degree l (l=1,2,...) eigenpolynomial. These polynomials are exceptional in the sense that they start from degree l≥1 and thus not constrained by any generalisation of Bochner's theorem.
