Using the steepest descent method for oscillatory Riemann-Hilbert problems introduced by Deift and Zhou [Ann. Math. {\bf 137}(1993), 295-368], we derive asymptotic formulas for the Meixner polynomials in two regions of the complex plane…
We study whether in the setting of the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method one can avoid solving local parametrix problems explicitly, while still obtaining asymptotic results. We show that this can be done, provided an a priori…
We develop a new asymptotic method for the analysis of matrix Riemann-Hilbert problems. Our method is a generalization of the steepest descent method first proposed by Deift and Zhou; however our method systematically handles jump matrices…
In this paper, we develop the Riemann-Hilbert method to study the asymptotics of discrete orthogonal polynomials on infinite nodes with an accumulation point. To illustrate our method, we consider the Tricomi-Carlitz polynomials…
We consider polynomials that are orthogonal on $[-1,1]$ with respect to a modified Jacobi weight $(1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta h(x)$, with $\alpha,\beta>-1$ and $h$ real analytic and stricly positive on $[-1,1]$. We obtain full asymptotic…
In this survey, we review asymptotic results of some orthogonal polynomials which are relate to the Painlev\'e transcendents. They are obtained by applying Deift-Zhou's nonlinear steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems. In the…
We carry out the asymptotic analysis as $n \to \infty$ of a class of orthogonal polynomials $p_{n}(z)$ of degree $n$, defined with respect to the planar measure \begin{equation*} d\mu(z) = (1-|z|^{2})^{\alpha-1}|z-x|^{\gamma}\mathbf{1}_{|z|…
In this paper, we study the asymptotics of the Hahn polynomials Q_n(x; {\alpha}, {\beta}, N) as the degree n grows to infinity, when the parameters {\alpha} and {\beta} are fixed and the ratio of n/N = c is a constant in the interval (0,…
We derive Mehler--Heine type asymptotic formulas for Charlier and Meixner polynomials, and also for their associated families. These formulas provide good approximations for the polynomials in the neighborhood of $x=0,$ and determine the…
Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…
In this paper, we study the asymptotics of the discrete Chebyshev polynomials tn (z, N) as the degree grows to infinity. Global asymptotic formulas are obtained as n \rightarrow \infty, when the ratio of the parameters n/N = c is a constant…
We study the asymptotic behavior of Multiple Meixner polynomials of first and second kind, respectively (see J. Arves\'u et al. J. Comput. Appl. Math., 153, (2003)). We use an algebraic function formulation for the solution of the…
We consider polynomials $P_n$ orthogonal with respect to the weight $J_{\nu}$ on $[0,\infty)$, where $J_{\nu}$ is the Bessel function of order $\nu$. Asheim and Huybrechs considered these polynomials in connection with complex Gaussian…
This is a survey article on an old topic in classical analysis. We present some new developments in asymptotics in the last fifty years. We start with the classical method of Darboux and its generalizations, including an uniformity…
Uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for the zeros of the reverse generalized Bessel polynomials of large degree $n$ and real parameter $a$. It is assumed that $-\Delta_{1} n+\frac{3}{2} \leq a \leq \Delta_{2} n$ for fixed arbitrary…
In this paper we derive uniform asymptotic expansions for the partial sums of the exponential series. We indicate how this information will be used in a later publication to obtain full and explicitly computable asymptotic expansions with…
In this paper, we are interested in matrix valued orthogonal polynomials on the real line with respect to exponential weights. We obtain strong asymptotics as the degree tends to infinity in different regions of the complex plane, as well…
Strong asymptotics of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle with respect to a weight of the form $$ W(z) = w(z) \prod_{k=1}^m |z-a_k|^{2\beta_k}, \quad |z|=1, \quad |a_k|=1, \quad \beta_k>-1/2, \quad k=1, ..., m, $$ where $w(z)>0$ for…
We investigate a Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP), whose solution corresponds to a group of $q$-orthogonal polynomials studied earlier by Ismail et al. Using RHP theory we determine new asymptotic results in the limit as the degree of the…
