Abstract: Fix an integer dgeq0, a field mathbbF, and a vector space V over mathbbF with dimension d+1. By a decomposition of V we mean a sequence Vii=0d of 1-dimensional subspaces of V whose sum is V. For a linear transformation A from V to V, we say A lowers Vii=0d whenever AVi=Vi1 for 0leqileqd, where V1=0. We say A raises Vii=0d whenever AVi=Vi+1 for 0leqileqd, where Vd+1=0. An ordered pair of linear transformations A,B from V to V is called LR whenever there exists a decomposition Vii=0d of V that is lowered by A and raised by B. In this case the decomposition Vii=0d is uniquely determined by A,B; we call it the (A,B)-decomposition of V. Consider a 3-tuple of linear transformations A, B, C from V to V such that any two of A, B, C form an LR pair on V. Such a 3-tuple is called an LR triple on V. Let alpha, , gamma be nonzero scalars in mathbbF. The triple is an LR triple on V, said to be associated to A,B,C. Let Vii=0d be a decomposition of V and let X be a linear transformation from V to V. We say X is tridiagonal with respect to Vii=0d whenever XVisubseteqVi1+Vi+Vi+1 for 0leqileqd. Let calX be the vector space over mathbbF consisting of the linear transformations from V to V that are tridiagonal with respect to the (A,B) and (B,C) and (C,A) decompositions of V. There is a special class of LR triples, called q-Weyl type. In the present paper, we find a basis of calX for each LR triple that is not associated to an LR triple of q-Weyl type.
