Let $f_k$ be the $k$-th Fourier coefficient of a function $f$ in terms of the orthonormal Hermite, Laguerre or Jacobi polynomials. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on $f$ for the inequality $\sum_{k}|f_k|^2\theta^k<\infty$ to…

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…

As the $q$-analog of Chebyshev polynomials, $q$-Hermite polynomials form a cornerstone in the family of $q$-orthogonal polynomials, which play a fundamental role in quantum algebra and mathematical physics. Recently, Andrews obtained a…
Orthogonal polynomials and expansions are studied for the weight function $h_\kappa^2(x) \|x\|^{2\nu} (1-\|x\|^2)^{\mu-1/2}$ on the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $h_\kappa$ is a reflection invariant function, and for related weight…
For an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a hyperbolic Riemann surface, the coefficients of the Fourier expansion are described as intertwining functionals. All intertwiners are classified. A refined growth estimate for the coefficients is…
