Abstract
Using the Riesz-Feller fractional derivative, we apply the factorization algorithm to the fractional quantum harmonic oscillator along the lines previously proposed by Olivar-Romero and Rosas-Ortiz, extending their results. We solve the non-Hermitian fractional eigenvalue problem in the k space by introducing in that space a new class of Hermite 'polynomials' that we call Riesz-Feller Hermite 'polynomials'. Using the inverse Fourier transform in Mathematica, interesting analytic results for the same eigenvalue problem in the x space are also obtained. Additionally, a more general factorization with two different Lévy indices is briefly introduced.
