The polynomials $p_n$ orthogonal on the interval $[-1,1],$ normalized by $p_n(1)=1,$ satisfy Tur\'an's inequality if $p_n^2(x)-p_{n-1}(x)p_{n+1}(x)\ge 0$ for $n\ge 1$ and for all $x$ in the interval of orthogonality. We give a general…

Let $g$ and $h$ be real-valued arithmetic functions, positive and normalized. Specific choices within the following general scheme of recursively defined polynomials \begin{equation*} P_n^{g,h}(x):= \frac{x}{h(n)} \sum_{k=1}^{n} g(k) \,…

We show that the normalised ultraspherical polynomials, $G_n^{(\lambda)}(x)=C_n^{(\lambda)}(x)/C_n^{(\lambda)}(1)$, satisfy the following stronger version of Tur\'{a}n inequality, $$|x|^\theta \left(G_n^{(\lambda)}(x)\right)^2…

We show how Turan's inequality $P_n(x)^2-P_{n-1}(x)P_{n+1}(x)\geq 0$ for Legendre polynomials and related inequalities can be proven by means of a computer procedure. The use of this procedure simplifies the daily work with inequalities.…

Let \mu denote a symmetric probability measure on [-1,1] and let (p_n) be the corresponding orthogonal polynomials normalized such that p_n(1)=1. We prove that the normalized Tur{\'a}n determinant \Delta_n(x)/(1-x^2), where…

Originally, Tur\'{a}n's inequality states that if $(P_n(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ is the sequence of Legendre polynomials, then $\Delta_n(x):=P_n^2(x)-P_{n+1}(x)P_{n-1}(x)\geq0$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $x\in[-1,1]$. Gasper specified the…

We present a short proof that the normalized Tur\'{a}n determinant in the ultraspherical case is convex or concave depending on whether parameter $\lambda$ is positive or negative.

Inspired by the work of C. Mortici [1] and A. Laforgia et. al [2] we have established some new Tur\'an-type inequalities for k-polygamma function and p-k-polygamma function.
