Taking the Hydrogen atom as an example it is shown that if the symmetry of a three-dimensional system is , the variables allow a separation of the variable , and the eigenfunctions define a new family of orthogonal polynomials in two variables, . These polynomials are related to the finite-dimensional representations of the algebra (discovered by S Lie around 1880 which went almost unnoticed), which occurs as the hidden algebra of the rational integrable system of 3 bodies on the line with 2- and 3-body interactions (the Wolfes model). Namely, those polynomials occur intrinsically in the study of the Zeeman effect on Hydrogen atom. It is shown that in the variables in the quasi-exactly-solvable, generalized Coulomb problem new polynomial eigenfunctions in -variables are found.
