Extension of Irreducibility results on Generalised Laguerre Polynomials $L_n^{(-1-n-s)}(x)$

We consider the irreducibility of Generalised Laguerre Polynomials for negative integral values given by $L_n^{(-1-n-s)}(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{j=0}^{n}\binom{n-j+s}{n-j}\frac{x^j}{j!}.$ For different values of $s,$ this family gives polynomials which are of great interest. It was proved earlier that for $0 \leq s \leq 60,$ these polynomials are irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}.$ In this paper we improve this result upto $s \leq 88.$

On the Galois group of Generalised Laguerre polynomials II

For real number $α,$ Generalised Laguerre Polynomials (GLP) is a family of polynomials defined by \begin{align*} L_n^{(α)}(x)=(-1)^n\displaystyle\sum_{j=0}^{n}\binom{n+α}{n-j}\frac{(-x)^j}{j!}. \end{align*}These orthogonal polynomials are extensively studied in Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Physics. In 1926, Schur initiated the study of algebraic properties of these polynomials. We consider the Galois group of Generalised Laguerre Polynomials $ L_n^{(\frac{1}{2}+u)}(x^2)$ when $u$ is a negative integer.

Irreducibility of extensions of Laguerre Polynomials

For integers $a_0,a_1,\ldots,a_n$ with $|a_0a_n|=1$ and either $α=u$ with $1\leq u \leq 50$ or $α=u+ \frac{1}{2}$ with $1 \leq u \leq 45$, we prove that $ψ_n^{(α)}(x;a_0,a_1,\cdots,a_n)$ is irreducible except for an explicit finite set of pairs $(u,n)$. Furthermore all the exceptions other than $n=2^{12},α=89/2$ are necessary. The above result with $0\leqα\leq 10$ is due to Filaseta, Finch and Leidy and with $α\in \{-1/2,1/2\}$ due to Schur.
