Abstract (English): This paper studies a hypergeometric-type differential equation whose polynomial solutions give rise to the Gegenbauer polynomials. We develop a self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville formulation within a weighted Hilbert-space setting, which provides a natural route to orthogonality, norm formulas, and the associated spectral conditions. We also discuss symmetry and self-adjoint realizations of the differential operator under suitable endpoint conditions. As an application, we treat the trigonometric Pöschl-Teller well: through nondimensionalization, exact singularity extraction, and a change of variables, the model reduces directly to the Gegenbauer framework, yielding an explicit discrete spectrum and a closed family of normalized eigenfunctions.

Abstract (Spanish): Este trabajo estudia la ecuación diferencial de tipo hipergeométrico que genera, como soluciones polinómicas, a los polinomios de Gegenbauer. Se presenta una formulación en forma autoadjunta de Sturm-Liouville y se establece el problema en un espacio de Hilbert con peso, lo que permite derivar de manera natural la ortogonalidad, las normas y las condiciones espectrales asociadas. Además, se analizan la simetría y las realizaciones autoadjuntas del operador diferencial mediante condiciones de frontera adecuadas. Como aplicación, se aborda el pozo trigonométrico de Pöschl-Teller: mediante escalamiento, extracción de singularidades y un cambio de variable, el problema se reduce directamente al modelo de Gegenbauer, obteniéndose un espectro discreto explícito y una familia cerrada de autofunciones normalizadas.
