Consider the following second order linear operator: 82 with Notice, that if instead of 3 we had 2 there, we would get a Legendre operator (whose eigenfunctions are Legendre polynomials). But nothing can be further from it than the operator above. The eigenvalue/eigenfunction problem, emerged in the analysis of vibrations of a particular quant urn liquid. An eigenvalue λ corresponds to an excitation mode of frequency Ω = V The eigenfunction ψ(r) would give a spatial profile of the deviation...
