Deeper reason for why classical orthogonal polynomials have simple generating functions?
Is there a known reason why all classical families of orthogonal polynomials have simple generating functions? I was wondering whether one could get an explanation using the connection with Sturm-...

Uniqueness of the solution to systems of first-order linear PDEs
Context:
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^p$ be an domain.
For functions $A_{jk}^i : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ and $B_k^i : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ with some regularity, I am interested in the following ...

Linear transport equation with Lipschitz conditions
Given the equation here, I would like to ask the following relaxed question:
Consider the PDE
$$\partial_t f(x,t) = \langle q(x), \nabla \rangle f(t,x) + p(x),$$
with Schwartz initial data $f(0,x) = ...

Linear transport equation with unbounded coefficients
Consider the PDE
$$\partial_t f(x,t) = \langle q(x), \nabla \rangle f(t,x) + p(x),$$
with Schwartz initial data $f(0,x) = f_0(x) \in \mathscr S(\mathbb R^n).$
I am wondering then if $q$ and all its ...

Explicit computation of a norm in context of operator-semigroups and differential equations
I am interested in the explicit calculation of the following norm $\vert \cdot \vert$.
Let $X$ a Banach space with norm $\Vert \cdot \Vert$ and $(T(t))_{t \geq 0}$ a strongly continuous one-parameter ...

Weak maximum principle for a perturbation of the Laplacian
This question is motivated by similar considerations for the Kohn-Laplacian in the Heisenberg group, but it seems that I cannot even give an answer in the Euclidean case, so here we go.
Suppose that ...

ODE with Bessel decay
This is related to my previous question, but it is probably less scary and an expert in using Mathematica could figure out an answer easily.
I would like to estimate the asymptotic behaviour of the ...

Method of characteristics beyond the Lipschitz setting
I have come across the following easy-looking problem that is driving me mad.
I have a family of measures (on the real line $\mathbb R$) $\{\mu_t\}_{t>0}$ which is uniformly bounded (the measures ...

General formula for integrating factor of an homogeneous differential 1 form
This question is probably very elementary but I don't know how to tackle the conversely part of the following result. Let $M(x,y)$ and $N(x,y)$ be two differentiable and homogeneous functions of the ...

Laplace problem with Robin boundary condition on a wedge
I'm trying to understand what the essential differences between Dirichlet/Neumann and Robin boundary conditions are. Therefore, let $\omega \in \left(0, 2\pi\right)$ and let
\begin{equation*}
\Omega = ...

Does $(\nabla \times F) \cdot F= (\nabla \times F) \cdot \nabla f$ have a solution?
A grad student asked me this question during office hours, and I couldn't for the life of me come up with a proof or counterexample:
For a given $F:\mathbb{R}^3 \to \mathbb{R}^3$, does $(\nabla \...

Differential Riccati-type equation
Setup
I have recently come across an ODE of the form
$$
0 = \dot{A}(t)^TG(t) + A(t)^T\dot{G}(t) + C(t) + \lambda B(t)^TA(t)G(t) + \frac{\lambda}{2} (D(t)A(t)G(t))(D(t)A(t)G(t))^T\bar{1},

Maximal minimum of Bessel functions
This comes from a scattering problem. Consider the usual non singular Bessel functions of the first kind, $J_n(x)$. It is known that their zeros are countable, and all zeros are distinct. My question ...

Some Questions from Reading on Wave Front Set from Hormander's Linear PDE Vol. 1
In Hormander's Linear PDE Vol. 1 (pg 252-253, before the definition of wave front set is introduced), Lemma $8.1.1$ says that if $\phi \in C_{0}^{\infty}$ and $v \in \mathcal{E}^{\prime}$, then $\...

Bound deg 3 partial differential operator on Laplace eigenfunction?
I am no expert on PDE and analysis but I am looking for certain technique from PDE.
Let $D_2$ be the Laplace operator and $f$ is an eigenfunction, i.e., $D_2 f=\lambda f$ for some $\lambda>1$. (or ...
