Abstract
In [R. Oste and J. Van der Jeugt, arXiv: 1507.01821 [math-ph]] we classified all pairs of recurrence relations in which two (dual) Hahn polynomials with different parameters appear. Such pairs are referred to as (dual) Hahn doubles, and the same technique was then applied to obtain all Racah doubles. We now consider a special case concerning the doubles related to Racah polynomials. This gives rise to an interesting class of two-diagonal matrices with closed form expressions for the eigenvalues. Just as it was the case for (dual) Hahn doubles, the resulting two-diagonal matrix can be used to construct a finite oscillator model. We discuss some properties of this oscillator model, give its (discrete) position wavefunctions explicitly, and illustrate their behavior by means of some plots.
