Szego's procedure to connect orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and orthogonal polynomials on [-1,1] is generalized to nonsymmetric measures. It generates the so-called semi-orthogonal functions on the linear space of Laurent…
Limiting cases are studied of the Koornwinder-Macdonald multivariable generalization of the Askey-Wilson polynomials. We recover recently and not so recently introduced families of hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in several variables…
This work provides explicit characterizations and formulae for the minimal polynomials of a wide variety of structured $4\times 4$ matrices. These include symmetric, Hamiltonian and orthogonal matrices. Applications such as the complete…
A class of orthogonal polynomials associated with Coulomb wave functions is introduced. These polynomials play a role analogous to that the Lommel polynomials do in the theory of Bessel functions. The measure of orthogonality for this new…
In this contribution, we introduce the multiplicative Jacobi polynomials that arise as one of the solutions of the multiplicative Sturm-Liouville equation \begin{equation*} \frac{d^*}{dx}\left( e^{(1-x^2)\omega(x)}\odot \frac{d^*y}{dx}…
The principal minors of the Toeplitz matrix $\left( x_{i-j+1}\right)_{1\le i,j,\le n}$, where $x_0=1, x_k=0$ if $k\le -1$, directly determine an involution of the polynomial ring $R[x_1, ... ,x_n]$ over any commutative ring $R$.
In this paper, we study a class of orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence relation with periodic coefficients. We derive explicit formulas for the generating function, the associated continued fraction, the orthogonality…
We consider orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle with respect to a weight which is a quotient of $q$-gamma functions. We show that the Verblunsky coefficients of these polynomials satisfy discrete Painlev\'e equations, in a Lax form,…
We follow a stream of the history of positive matrices and positive functionals, as applied to algebraic sums of squares decompositions, with emphasis on the interaction between classical moment problems, function theory of one or several…
Assume that $\{a_{n};\,n\geq0\}$ is a sequence of positive numbers and $\sum a_{n}^{\,-1}<\infty$. Let $\alpha_{n}=ka_{n}$, $\beta_{n}=a_{n}+k^{2}a_{n-1}$ where $k\in(0,1)$ is a parameter, and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be an orthonormal polynomial…
The rank two Jacobi algebra $\mathcal{J}_2$ is used to provide an interpretation of the two-variable Jacobi polynomials $J_{n,k}^{(a,b,c)}(x,y)$ on the triangle, as overlaps between two representation bases. The subalgebra structure of…
We address the computational spectral theory of Jacobi operators that are compact perturbations of the free Jacobi operator via the asymptotic properties of a connection coefficient matrix. In particular, for finite-rank perturbation we…
It is a consequence of the Jacobi Inversion Theorem that a line bundle over a Riemann surface M of genus g has a meromorphic section having at most g poles, or equivalently, the divisor class of a divisor D over M contains a divisor having…
Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle (OPUC for short) are a family of polynomials whose orthogonality is given by integration over the unit circle in the complex plane. There are combinatorial studies on the moments of various types of…
We provide an explicit spectral representation for several weighted Hankel matrices by means of the so called commutator method. These weighted Hankel matrices are found in the commutant of Jacobi matrices associated with orthogonal…
We compute the asymptotics of eigenvalues of Jacobi matrices with the zero coefficients on the main diagonal and the off-diagonal coefficients which converge to zero.
We study CMV matrices by focusing on their right-limit sets. We prove a CMV version of a recent result of Remling dealing with the implications of the existence of absolutely continuous spectrum, and we study some of its consequences. We…
Jedrzejewicz showed that a polynomial map over a field of characteristic zero is invertible, if and only if the corresponding endomorphism maps irreducible polynomials to irreducible polynomials. Furthermore, he showed that a polynomial map…
Banded bounded matrices, which represent non normal operators, of oscillatory type that admit a positive bidiagonal factorization are considered. To motivate the relevance of the oscillatory character the Favard theorem for Jacobi matrices…
We study a certain linear automorphism of a vertex operator algebra induced by the formal change of variable $f(x)=e^x-1$ and describe examples showing how this relates the theory of vertex operator algebras to Bernoulli numbers, Bernoulli…
