We identify here the possible occurrence of large deformations in the neutron- and proton-rich ([Formula: see text]-rich and [Formula: see text]-rich) regions of the nuclear chart from extensive predictions of the values of the reduced quadrupole transition probability [Formula: see text] for the transition from the ground state to the first [Formula: see text] state and the corresponding excitation energy [Formula: see text] of even–even nuclei in the recently developed generalized differential equation (GDE) model exclusively meant for these physical quantities. This is made possible from our analysis of the predicted values of these two physical quantities and the corresponding deformation parameters derived from them such as the quadrupole deformation [Formula: see text], the ratio of [Formula: see text] to the Weisskopf single-particle [Formula: see text] and the intrinsic electric quadrupole moment [Formula: see text], calculated for a large number of both known as well as hitherto unknown even–even isotopes of oxygen to fermium (0 to FM; [Formula: see text]–100). Our critical analysis of the resulting data convincingly support possible existence of large collectivity for the nuclides [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], whose values of [Formula: see text] are found to exceed 0.3 and even 0.4 in some cases. Our findings of large deformations in the exotic [Formula: see text]-rich regions support the existence of another “island of inversion” in the heavy-mass region possibly caused by breaking of the [Formula: see text] subshell closure.
