Double Lowering Operators on Polynomials

Recently, Sarah Bockting-Conrad introduced the double lowering operator ψ for a tridiagonal pair. Motivated by ψ, we consider the following problem about polynomials. Let denote an algebraically closed field. Let denote an indeterminate, and let [] denote the algebra consisting of the polynomials...

description Recently, Sarah Bockting-Conrad introduced the double lowering operator ψ for a tridiagonal pair. Motivated by ψ, we consider the following problem about polynomials. Let denote an algebraically closed field. Let denote an indeterminate, and let [] denote the algebra consisting of the polynomials in that have all coefficients in . Let denote a positive integer or ∞. Let {ᵢ}ᴺ⁻¹ᵢ₌₀, {ᵢ}ᴺ⁻¹ᵢ₌₀ denote scalars in such that ∑ⁱ⁻¹ₕ₌₀ₕ ≠ ∑ⁱ⁻¹ₕ₌₀ₕ for 1 ≤ ≤ . For 0 ≤ ≤ define polynomials τᵢ, ηᵢ ∈ [] by τᵢ=∏ⁱ⁻¹ₕ₌₀(−ₕ) and ηᵢ=∏ⁱ⁻¹ₕ₌₀(−ₕ). Let V denote the subspace of [] spanned by {ᵢ}ᴺᵢ₌₀. An element ψ ∈ End() is called double lowering whenever ψτᵢ ∈ τᵢ₋₁ and ψηᵢ ∈ ηᵢ₋₁ for 0 ≤ ≤ , where τ₋₁ = 0 and η₋₁ = 0. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on {ᵢ}ᴺ⁻¹ᵢ₌₀, {ᵢ}ᴺ⁻¹ᵢ₌₀ for there to exist a nonzero double lowering map. There are four families of solutions, which we describe in detail.
