In this paper we determine the asymptotics of the determinants of truncated Wiener-Hopf plus Hankel operators $\det(W_R(a)\pm H_R(a))$ as $R$ tends to infinity for symbols $a(x)=(x^2/(1+x^2))^\beta$ with the parameter $\beta$ being of small…

In this work we investigate Plancherel-Rotach type asymptotics for some $q$-series as $q\to1$. These $q$-series generalize Ramanujan function $A_{q}(z)$ ($q$-Airy function), Jackson's $q$-Bessel function $J_{\nu}^{(2)}$(z;q), Ismail-Masson…

We compute the asymptotics of the determinants of certain $n\times n$ Toeplitz + Hankel matrices $T_n(a)+H_n(b)$ as $n\to\infty$ with symbols of Fisher-Hartwig type. More specifically we consider the case where $a$ has zeros and poles and…

We consider Laguerre polynomials $L_n^{(\alpha_n)}(nz)$ with varying negative parameters $\alpha_n$, such that the limit $A = -\lim_n \alpha_n/n$ exists and belongs to $(0,1)$. For $A > 1$, it is known that the zeros accumulate along an…
