By viewing Weyl-ordered polynomials as tensor operators with respect to the Lie algebra sl₂(C) we derive a specific form for these polynomials, including an expression in terms of hypergeometric functions, and determine various algebraic properties such as recurrence relations, symmetries, and also a general product formula from which all commutators and anti-commutators may be calculated. We briefly discuss several applications to quantum mechanics in fractional dimensions.enWeyl-ordered polynomials in fractional-dimensional quantum mechanicsJournal article002005004910.1088/0305-4470/38/2/0120002266311000142-s2.0-1194425512255338Lohe, M.
