The Jack polynomials are a family of multivariate orthogonal polynomials dependent on a positive parameter . Orthogonality of the Jack polynomials is proved in Macdonald (1995, p. 383). The Jack polynomials have a rich history, and special cases of
have been studied more extensively than others (Dumitriu et al. 2004). The following table summarizes some of these special cases.

Jack (1969-1970) originally defined the polynomials that eventually became associated with his name while attempting to evaluate an integral connected with the noncentral Wishart distribution (James 1960, Hua 1963, Dumitriu et al. 2004). Jack noted that the case were the Schur polynomials, and conjectured that
were the zonal polynomials. The question of finding a combinatorial interpretation for the polynomials was raised by Foulkes (1974), and subsequently answered by Knop and Sahi (1997). Later authors then generalized many known properties of the Schur and zonal polynomials to Jack polynomials (Stanley 1989, Macdonald 1995). Jack polynomials are especially useful in the theory of random matrices (Dumitriu et al. 2004).
The Jack polynomials generalize the monomial scalar functions , which is orthogonal over the unit circle
in the complex plane with weight function unity
. The interval for the
-multivariate Jack polynomials
can therefore be thought of as an
-dimensional torus (Dumitriu et al. 2004).
The Jack polynomials have several equivalent definitions (up to certain normalization constraints), and three common normalizations ("C," "J," and "P"). The "J" normalization makes the coefficient of the lowest-order monomial equal to exactly
, while the "P" normalization is monic.
Letting denote
