Abstract
The structure of orthogonal polynomials on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with the weight
function $\vert x_{1}^{2}-x_{2}^{2}\vert ^{2k_{0}}\vert
x_{1}x_{2}\vert ^{2k_{1}}e^{-( x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}) /2}$ is
based on the Dunkl operators of type $B_{2}$. This refers to the full symmetry
group of the square, generated by reflections in the lines $x_{1}=0$ and
$x_{1}-x_{2}=0$. The weight function is integrable if $k_{0},k_{1},k_{0}
+k_{1}>-\frac{1}{2}$. Dunkl operators can be defined for polynomials taking
values in a module of the associated reflection group, that is, a vector space
on which the group has an irreducible representation. The unique
$2$-dimensional representation of the group $B_{2}$ is used here. The specific
operators for this group and an analysis of the inner products on the harmonic
vector-valued polynomials are presented in this paper. An orthogonal basis for
the harmonic polynomials is constructed, and is used to define an
exponential-type kernel. In contrast to the ordinary scalar case the inner
product structure is positive only when $( k_{0},k_{1})$ satisfy
$-\frac{1}{2} < k_{0}\pm k_{1} < \frac{1}{2}$. For vector polynomials $(f_{i}) _{i=1}^{2}$, $( g_{i}) _{i=1}^{2}$ the inner product
has the form $\iint_{\mathbb{R}^{2}}f(x) K(x)
g(x) ^{T}e^{-( x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}) /2}dx_{1}dx_{2}$ where the matrix function $K(x)$ has to satisfy various
transformation and boundary conditions. The matrix $K$ is expressed in terms of hypergeometric functions.
Key words:
