We continue our study of the Widom factors for $L_p(\mu)$ extremal polynomials initiated in [4]. In this work we characterize sets for which the lower bounds obtained in [4] are saturated, establish continuity of the Widom factors with…
We study Widom factors for (a) monic orthogonal polynomials in $L^2$ with respect to the equilibrium measure of a compact set $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ and (b) residual polynomials normalized at an exterior point. Using weakly equilibrium Cantor…
Let $\mu_0$ and $\mu_1$ be measures supported on an unbounded interval and $S_{n,\lambda_n}$ the extremal varying Sobolev polynomial which minimizes \begin{equation*} < P, P >_{\lambda_n}=\int P^2 d\mu_0 + \lambda_n \int P'^2 d\mu_1, \quad…
In this paper we study the sequence of orthonormal polynomials $\{P_n(\mu; z)\}$ defined by a probability measure $\mu$ with non-polar compact support $S(\mu)\subset\mathbb C$. We show that the support of any weak* limit of the sequence of…
Let $K(\gamma)$ be the weakly equilibrium Cantor type set introduced in [10]. It is proven that the monic orthogonal polynomials $Q_{2^s}$ with respect to the equilibrium measure of $K(\gamma)$ coincide with the Chebyshev polynomials of the…
For a regular, compact, polynomially convex circled set K in C^2, we construct a sequence of pairs {P_n,Q_n} of homogeneous polynomials in two variables with deg P_n = deg Q_n = n such that the sets K_n: = {(z,w) \in C^2 : |P_n(z,w)| \leq…
Let $K\subset\mathbb{C}$ be non-polar, compact and polynomially convex. We study the limits of equilibrium measures on preimages of compact sets, under $K$-regular sequences of polynomials, that center on $K$ and under the sequences of…
Let $K$ be a non-polar compact subset of $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mu_K$ be its equilibrium measure. Let $\mu$ be a unit Borel measure supported on a compact set which contains the support of $\mu_K$. We prove that a Szeg\H{o} condition in terms…
We derive lower bounds for the $L^p(\mu)$ norms of monic extremal polynomials with respect to compactly supported probability measures $\mu$. We obtain a sharp universal lower bound for all $0<p<\infty$ and all measures in the Szeg\H{o}…
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 construct an example of a purely unrectifiable measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the singular integrals associated to the kernels $\displaystyle{K(x)=\frac{P_{2k+1}(x)}{|x|^{2k+d}}}$, with $k\geq 1$ and $P_{2k+1}$ a homogeneous…
We show that under very mild conditions on a measure $\mu$ on the interval $[0,\infty)$, the span of $\{x^k\}_{k=n}^{\infty}$ is dense in $L^2(\mu)$ for any $n=0,1,\ldots$. We present two different proofs of this result, one based on the…
Let G be a bounded region with simply connected closure and having analytic boundary and let mu be a positive measure carried by the closure of G together with finitely many pure points outside G. We provide estimates on the norms of the…
We consider random polynomials of the form $H_n(z)=\sum_{j=0}^n\xi_jq_j(z)$ where the $\{\xi_j\}$ are i.i.d non-degenerate complex random variables, and the $\{q_j(z)\}$ are orthonormal polynomials with respect to a compactly supported…
We consider unitary polynomials $P \in Z[X]$ whose roots $(x_i)$ belong to a given compact $K$ of $C$. To such a polynomial we associate the measure $\mu_P$ on $K$ which is the mean value of the Dirac measures $\delta_{x_i}$. What are the…
For a regular compact set $K$ in $C^m$ and a measure $\mu$ on $K$ satisfying the Bernstein-Markov inequality, we consider the ensemble $P_N$ of polynomials of degree $N$, endowed with the Gaussian probability measure induced by $L^2(\mu)$.…
Let a sequence $(P_n)$ of polynomials in one complex variable satisfy a recurre ce relation with length growing slowlier than linearly. It is shown that $(P_n) $ is an orthonormal basis in $L^2_{\mu}$ for some measure $\mu$ on $\C$, if and…
