Abstract: Intermediate Jacobi polynomials for a root system with Weyl group are orthogonal polynomials that are invariant under a parabolic subgroup of . The extreme cases are the symmetric and the non-symmetric Jacobi polynomials studied by Heckman and Opdam. Intermediate Jacobi polynomials can also be understood as vector-valued orthogonal polynomials. We study the rank one case in this paper. The interpretation of the non-symmetric Jacobi polynomials as vector-valued polynomials has interesting consequences. The first is that the non-symmetric Jacobi polynomials can be expressed in terms of the symmetric ones. The second is that we recover a shift operator for the symmetric Jacobi polynomials that comes from the Hecke algebra representation. Thirdly, for geometric root multiplicities the vector-valued polynomials can be identified with spherical functions on the sphere associated to the fundamental spin-representation. In this way the Cherednik-operator appears as a Dirac operator for the spinors on this space.
