A Note on Laguerre Original Ode and Polynomials (1879)

Authors: Mohamed E. Hassani

In the present note a critical discussion of two ODEs and two polynomials that have been wrongly attributed to the French mathematician Edmond Nicolas Laguerre (1834-1886) is provided. It is shown that Laguerre had nothing to do with such a wrong attribution and the actual discoverer was the Russian mathematician Nikolay Yacovlevich Sonine (1849-1915).
