Following the work of Schur and Coleman, we prove the generalized Laguerre polynomial x j is irreducible over the rationals for all nX1 and has Galois group A n if n ΓΎ 1 is an odd square, and S n otherwise. We also show that for certain negative integer values of a and certain congruence classes of
We compute a quantum mechanical probability distribution expressed as a series of generalized Laguerre polynomials. A method for the numerical generation of the polynomials of any integer order is given. Two new properties of these polynomials are derived to reduce the distribution to a closed form
