Recurrence coefficients for the semiclassical Laguerrre weight and d-P$\left(A_{2}^{(1)}/E_{6}^{(1)}\right)$ equations

Siqi Chen, Mengkun Zhu

TL;DR

This work connects the recurrence coefficients of the semiclassical Laguerre weight $w(x)=x^{\lambda} e^{-x^2+s x}$ to discrete Painlevé dynamics within Sakai’s geometric framework. By transforming the ladder-operator expressions of Filipuk et al., the authors obtain a recurrence for variables $x_n,y_n$ that is equivalent to the standard discrete Painlevé equation in the $d$-$P(A_{2}^{(1)}/E_{6}^{(1)})$ family via a detailed identification procedure. They perform a thorough singularity analysis, blow up the base points on $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$, track the induced Picard-lattice action, compute the period map, and construct an explicit birational coordinate change between $(q,p,t)$ and $(x,y)$; this yields the root-variable relations $a_0=1-\lambda$, $a_1=-n$, $a_2=n+\lambda$, and confirms that the Laguerre-recurrence is governed by the canonical $d$-$P_{VI}$-type dynamics on the $E_{6}^{(1)}$ surface. The result integrates semiclassical Laguerre recurrences into Sakai’s classification and provides explicit transformations for practical computation of the coefficients. $

Abstract

In this paper, we use Sakai's geometric framework to explore the profound interconnection between recurrence coefficients of the semiclassical Laguerre weight $w(x)=x^λ\mathrm{e}^{-x^2+sx}$, $x\in\mathbb{R}^+$, $λ>-1$, $s\in\mathbb{R}$, and Painlevé equations. Specifically, we introduce a new transformation for the expressions obtained by Filipuk et al. in their analysis of ladder operators for semiclassical Laguerre polynomials, thereby deriving a recurrence relation. Subsequently, we establish a correspondence between this recurrence relation and a class of d-P$\left(A_{2}^{(1)}/E_{6}^{(1)}\right)$ equations.

Key Result

Theorem 1
