Expansions in products of Heine-Stieltjes polynomials (Q1963844)

Polynomial Heine-Stieltjes solutions \(E_n\) of the Fuchsian differential equation \[ E''+\sum^k_{j=0} {\rho_j\over s-a_j}E'+{\sum^{k-1}_{i=0} \lambda_is^i \over\prod^k_{j=0} (s-a_j)}E=0 \] were studied. The existence and uniqueness theorem forms the basis of the study. Orthogonality of the polynomial products \(E_n(S_1) E_n(S_2) \dots E_n(S_k)\) and corresponding expansions were investigated. These products lead to homogeneous polynomial solutions of a partial differential equation, these polynomials also have orthogonality properties. An expansion of analytic functions in terms of the above products was proved.
