In this paper we study a family of polynomials $$S_n^{(m)}(x):=\sum_{i,j=0}^n\binom ni^m\binom nj^m\binom{i+j}ix^{i+j}\ \ (m,n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ For example, we show that $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}S_k^{(0)}(x)\equiv\frac…

Let $x_1$ and $x_k$ be the least and the largest zeros of the Laguerre or Jacobi polynomial of degree $k.$ We shall establish sharp inequalities of the form $x_1 <A, x_k >B,$ which are uniform in all the parameters involved. Together with…

In this article, we investigate the statistical distribution and asymptotic behavior of the family of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ having at least one root in a fixed number field $K$. Although the framework of thin sets implies…

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…

We consider orthogonal polynomials with respect to a linear differential operator $$\mathcal{L}^{(M)}=\sum_{k=0}^{M}\rho_{k}(z)\frac{d^k}{dz^k}, $$ where $\{\rho_k\}_{k=0}^{M}$ are complex polynomials such that $deg[\rho_k]\leq k, 0\leq k…

In this paper, we provide a new method to find all zeros of polynomials with quaternionic coefficients located on only one side of the powers of the variable (these polynomials are called simple polynomials). This method is much more…

In this paper we study polynomials $(P_n)$ which are hermitian orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle with respect to weight functions which have square root singularities at the end points of the arcs, an arbitrary nonvanishing…

The complex or non-hermitian orthogonal polynomials with analytic weights are ubiquitous in several areas such as approximation theory, random matrix models, theoretical physics and in numerical analysis, to mention a few. Due to the…

A singular polynomial is one which is annihilated by all Dunkl operators for a certain parameter value. These polynomials were first studied by Dunkl, de Jeu and Opdam, (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 346 (1994), 237-256). This paper constructs a…

A result of P\'olya states that every sequence of quadrature formulas $Q_n(f)$ with $n$ nodes and positive numbers converges to the integral $I(f)$ of a continuous function $f$ provided $Q_n(f)=I(f)$ for a space of algebraic polynomials of…

We evaluate the number of monic polynomials (of arbitrary degree $N$) the zeros of which equal their coefficients when these are allowed to take arbitrary complex values. In the following, we call polynomials with this property {\em…

We show that the zeros of consecutive orthogonal polynomials $p_n$ and $p_{n-1}$ are linearly connected by a doubly stochastic matrix for which the entries are explicitly computed in terms of Christoffel numbers. We give similar results for…

Let $p(x)=a_0 + a_1 x + \ldots + a_n x^n$ be a polynomial with all roots real and satisfying $x \leq -\delta$ for some $0<\delta <1$. We show that for any $0 < \epsilon <1$, the value of $p(1)$ is determined within relative error $\epsilon$…

Polynomials $Q_n(z)$, $n=0,1,\ldots,$ that are multi-orthogonal with respect to a Nikishin system of $p\geq 1$ compactly supported measures over the star-like set of $p+1$ rays $S_+:=\{z\in \mathbb{C}: z^{p+1}\geq 0 \}$ are investigated. We…

This paper is concerned with the distribution in the complex plane of the roots of a polynomial sequence $\{W_n(x)\}_{n\ge0}$ given by a recursion $W_n(x)=aW_{n-1}(x)+(bx+c)W_{n-2}(x)$, with $W_0(x)=1$ and $W_1(x)=t(x-r)$, where $a>0$,…

Zeros of many ensembles of polynomials with random coefficients are asymptotically equidistributed near the unit circumference. We give quantitative estimates for such equidistribution in terms of the expected discrepancy and expected…

Consider a monic polynomial of degree $n$ whose subleading coefficients are independent, identically distributed, nondegenerate random variables having zero mean, unit variance, and finite moments of all orders, and let $m \geq 0$ be a…

Many limits are known for hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials that occur in the Askey scheme. We show how asymptotic representations can be derived by using the generating functions of the polynomials. For example, we discuss the…

This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be independent and identically distributed random variables in $\mathbb{C}$ chosen from a probability measure $\mu$ and define the random polynomial $$ P_n(z)=(z-X_1)\ldots(z-X_n)\,. $$ We show that for any sequence $k…
