Palindromic symmetry conjecture for recurrence coefficients in superelliptic central extensions
Palindromic symmetry conjecture for recurrence coefficients in superelliptic central extensions
Let , where is palindromic of even degree with simple roots. Let denote the quotient by exact derivatives, whose reduction relations define recurrence coefficients indexed by degree. Palindromic symmetry conjecture. The identity
forces the recurrence coefficients in to be symmetric in the degree index. For , this symmetry should imply, via Favard's theorem, that the associated polynomial family is orthogonal with respect to a symmetric measure; for , the recurrence is expected to be a multi-component system of dimension , requiring a block-Jacobi generalization. The claim is verified in the cases and , while no assertion is made that symmetry alone forces the classical Jacobi class. This conjecture proposes a general structural link between palindromic branch-locus symmetry and recurrence relations in universal central extensions; the higher-degree multi-component case remains open, and the stated orthogonality discussion is established on the current-algebra side only for the cited type- canonical family.
