abstract

  • In this paper, we consider a perturbation of a Laguerre-Hahn functional by adding a derivative of a Dirac delta. This transformation leaves invariant the family of Laguerre-Hahn linear functionals. We shall also analyse the class of the perturbed linear functional. Finally, we illustrate these perturbations by adding the derivative of a Dirac delta to the first kind associated functional of the classical Laguerre functional. The expression of the new orthogonal polynomials is obtained.
