Matrix valued orthogonal polynomials arising from representations
of SU(N)
There is a classical and well known connection between Jacobi
polynomials and representations of compact Lie groups. I will discuss
joint work with I. Pacharoni and J. Tirao that gives rise to matrix
valued orthogonal polynomials in the context of representation theory.
