A Laplace-Dunkl equation on \(S^2\) and the Bannai-Ito algebra




Abstract: The analysis of the mathbbZ23 Laplace-Dunkl equation on the 2-sphere is cast in the framework of the Racah problem for the Hopf algebra sl1(2). The related Dunkl-Laplace operator is shown to correspond to a quadratic expression in the total Casimir operator of the tensor product of three irreducible sl1(2)-modules. The operators commuting with the Dunkl Laplacian are seen to coincide with the intermediate Casimir operators and to realize a central extension of the Bannai-Ito (BI) algebra. Functions on S2 spanning irreducible modules of the BI algebra are constructed and given explicitly in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The BI polynomials occur as expansion coefficients between two such bases composed of functions separated in different coordinate systems.
