Some new bounds for the extreme zeroes of Jacobi polynomials are obtained with an elementary approach. A feature of these bounds is their simple forms, which make them easy to work with. Despite their simplicity, our lower bounds for the…

We consider multiple orthogonal polynomials with respect to two modified Jacobi weights on touching intervals [a,0] and [0,1], with a < 0, and study a transition that occurs at a = -1. The transition is studied in a double scaling limit,…
We introduce, characterise and provide a combinatorial interpretation for the so-called $q$-Jacobi-Stirling numbers. This study is motivated by their key role in the (reciprocal) expansion of any power of a second order $q$-differential…
We study two families of orthogonal polynomials. The first is a finite family related to the Askey-Wilson polynomials but the orthogonality is on the real line. A limiting case of this family is an infinite system of orthogonal polynomials…
Coefficients of super Jacobi polynomials of type $B(1,n)$ are rational functions in three parameters $k,p,q$. At the point $(-1,0,0)$ these coefficient may have poles. Let us set $q=0$ and consider pair $(k,p)$ as a point of $\Bbb A^2$. If…
Orthogonal polynomials for a family of weight functions on $[-1,1]^2$, $$ \CW_{\a,\b,\g}(x,y) = |x+y|^{2\a+1} |x-y|^{2\b+1} (1-x^2)^\g(1-y^2)^{\g}, $$ are studied and shown to be related to the Koornwinder polynomials defined on the region…
Using a general $q$-summation formula, we derive a generating function for the $q$-Hahn polynomials, which is used to give a complete proof of the orthogonality relation for the $q$-Hahn polynomials. A new proof of the orthogonality…
A unified theory of orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable is presented through the eigenvalue problem of hermitian matrices of finite or infinite dimensions. It can be considered as a matrix version of exactly solvable Schr\"odinger…
