Abstract
We construct two new exactly solvable potentials giving rise to bound-state solutions to the Schrodinger equation, which can be written in terms of the recently introduced Laguerre- or Jacobi-type X1 exceptional orthogonal polynomials. These potentials, extending either the radial oscillator or the Scarf I potential by the addition of some rational terms, turn out to be translationally shape invariant as their standard counterparts and isospectral to them.

TL;DR: In this paper, infinite families of multi-indexed orthogonal polynomials are discovered as the solutions of exactly solvable one-dimensional quantum mechanical systems, where each polynomial has another integer n which counts the nodes and the totality of the integer indices correspond to the degrees of the virtual state wavefunctions which are deleted by the generalisation of Crum-Adler theorem.
