In this paper we obtain new results about the orthogonality measure of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle, through the study of unitary truncations of the corresponding unitary multiplication operator, and the use of the…
Solomonoff unified Occam's razor and Epicurus' principle of multiple explanations to one elegant, formal, universal theory of inductive inference, which initiated the field of algorithmic information theory. His central result is that the…
This paper starts with a biographical sketch of the life of Josef Meixner. Then his motivations to work on orthogonal polynomials and special functions are reviewed. Meixner's 1934 paper introducing the Meixner and Meixner-Pollaczek…
We consider measures supported on the bi-circle and review the recurrence relations satisfied by the orthogonal polynomials associated with these measures constructed using the lexicographical or reverse lexicographical ordering. New…
At present there exist numerous different approaches to results on Toeplitz determinants of the type of Szeg\"o's strong limit theorem. The intention of this paper is to show that Jacobi's theorem on the minors of the inverse matrix remains…
This is a survey on the theory of skew-cyclic codes based on skew-polynomial rings of automorphism type. Skew-polynomial rings have been introduced and discussed by Ore (1933). Evaluation of skew polynomials and sets of (right) roots were…
We review the properties of six families of orthogonal polynomials that form the main bulk of the collection called the Askey--Wilson scheme of polynomials. We give connection coefficients between them as well as the so-called linearization…
For a natural extension of the circular unitary ensemble of order n, we study as n tends to infinity, the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the spectral measure. The last term of this sequence is…
Using the minimal parameter sequence of a given chain sequence, we introduce the concept of complementary chain sequences, which we view as perturbations of chain sequences. Using the relation between these complementary chain sequences and…
This is a comprehensive review of the uses of potential theory in studying the spectral theory of orthogonal polynomials. Much of the article focuses on the Stahl-Totik theory of regular measures, especially the case of OPRL and OPUC. Links…
In this survey article, we review some results and conjectures related to orthogonal polynomials on Cantor sets. The main purpose of this paper is to emphasize the role of equilibrium measures in order to have a general theory of…
We study skew-orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $\exp[-2V(x)]$, with $V(x)=\sum_{K=1}^{2d}(u_{K}/{K})x^{K}$, $u_{2d} > 0$, $d > 0$. A finite subsequence of such skew-orthogonal polynomials arising in the study of…
A series of recent papers by Bergfalk, Lupini and Panagiotopoulus developed the foundations of a field known as `definable algebraic topology,' in which classical cohomological invariants are enriched by viewing them as groups with a Polish…
The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to a conjecture appearing in [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 26 (2015) 90-95].
Sets of orthogonal basis functions over two-dimensional circular areas--most often representing pupils in optical applications--are known in the literature for the full circle (Zernike or Jacobi polynomials) and the annulus. This work…
Let $\mu$ be a non-trivial probability measure on the unit circle $\partial\bbD$, $w$ the density of its absolutely continuous part, $\alpha_n$ its Verblunsky coefficients, and $\Phi_n$ its monic orthogonal polynomials. In this paper we…
Let $E$ be a homogeneous compact set, for instance a Cantor set of positive length. Further let $\sigma$ be a positive measure with $\text{supp}(\sigma)=E$. Under the condition that the absolutely continuous part of $\sigma$ satisfies a…
We prove Szeg\H{o}-type trace asymptotics for translation-invariant operators on polygons. More precisely, consider a Fourier multiplier $A=\mathcal{F}^\ast \sigma \mathcal{F}$ on $\mathsf{L}^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ with a sufficiently decaying,…
We study probability measures on the unit circle corresponding to orthogonal polynomials whose sequence of Verblunsky coefficients is invariant under the Fibonacci substitution. We focus in particular on the fractal properties of the…
We construct an orthogonal basis of functions defined over the unit circle as the product of the common sinusoidal functions of the azimuth angle by radial functions which are essentially sines of a polynomials of the radial distance to the…
