We survey results on Chebyshev polynomials centered around the work of H. Widom. In particular, we discuss asymptotics of the polynomials and their norms and general upper and lower bounds for the norms. Several open problems are also…

We raise a conjecture that asymptotics for Chebyshev polynomials in a complex domain can be given in terms of the reproducing kernels of a suitable Hilbert space of analytic functions in this domain. It is based on two classical results due…

We determine which sets saturate the Szeg}o and Schiefermayr lower bounds on the norms of Chebyshev Polynomials. We also discuss sets that saturate the Totik--Widom upper bound.

We consider Chebyshev polynomials, $T_n(z)$, for infinite, compact sets $\frak{e} \subset \mathbb{R}$ (that is, the monic polynomials minimizing the sup-norm, $\Vert T_n \Vert_{\frak{e}}$, on $\frak{e}$). We resolve a $45+$ year old…

We make a number of comments on Chebyshev polynomials for general compact subsets of the complex plane. We focus on two aspects: asymptotics of the zeros and explicit Totik--Widom upper bounds on their norms.

We prove Szeg\H{o}-Widom asymptotics for the Chebyshev polynomials of a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ which is regular for potential theory and obeys the Parreau-Widom and DCT conditions.

There is a vast theory of Chebyshev and residual polynomials and their asymptotic behavior. The former ones maximize the leading coefficient and the latter ones maximize the point evaluation with respect to an $L^\infty$ norm. We study…

We continue studying polynomials generated by the Szeg\H{o} recursion when a finite number of Verblunsky coefficients lie outside the closed unit disk. We prove some asymptotic results for the corresponding orthogonal polynomials and then…

We study the behavior of weighted residual polynomials on circular arcs, including weighted Chebyshev polynomials. For weights given by reciprocals of polynomials, we establish Szeg\H{o}-Widom asymptotics. Extending our analysis to less…

We derive optimal asymptotic and non-asymptotic lower bounds on the Widom factors for weighted Chebyshev and orthogonal polynomials on compact subsets of the real line. In the Chebyshev case we extend the optimal non-asymptotic lower bound…

We provide a representation in terms of certain canonical functions for a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weight that is strictly positive and analytic on the unit circle. These formulas yield a complete asymptotic…

We compute the leading and sub-leading terms in the asymptotic expansion of the Szeg\"o kernel on the diagonal of a class of pseudoconvex Reinhardt domains whose boundaries are endowed with a general class of smooth measures. We do so by…

We study residual polynomials, $R_{x_0,n}^{(\mathfrak{e})}$, $\mathfrak{e}\subset\mathbb{R}$, $x_0\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\mathfrak{e}$, which are the degree at most $n$ polynomials with $R(x_0)=1$ that minimize the $\sup$ norm on…

We give upper and lower bounds for weighted Chebyshev and residual polynomials on subsets of the real line. As an application, we prove a Szeg\H{o}-type theorem in the setting of Parreau--Widom sets.

Strong asymptotics of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle with respect to a weight of the form $$ W(z) = w(z) \prod_{k=1}^m |z-a_k|^{2\beta_k}, \quad |z|=1, \quad |a_k|=1, \quad \beta_k>-1/2, \quad k=1, ..., m, $$ where $w(z)>0$ for…

We consider the problem of finding a best uniform approximation to the standard monomial on the unit ball in $\bbC^2$ by polynomials of lower degree with complex coefficients. We reduce the problem to a one-dimensional weighted minimization…

We consider polynomials that are orthogonal over an analytic Jordan curve L with respect to a positive analytic weight, and show that each such polynomial of sufficiently large degree can be expanded in a series of certain integral…

In this paper, we are interested in matrix valued orthogonal polynomials on the real line with respect to exponential weights. We obtain strong asymptotics as the degree tends to infinity in different regions of the complex plane, as well…

We derive bulk asymptotics of skew-orthogonal polynomials (sop) $\pi^{\bt}_{m}$, $\beta=1$, 4, defined w.r.t. the weight $\exp(-2NV(x))$, $V (x)=gx^4/4+tx^2/2$, $g>0$ and $t<0$. We assume that as $m,N \to\infty$ there exists an $\epsilon >…

We review and elaborate on recent work of Chang and Rabinowitz on scaling asymptotics of Poisson and Szeg\"{o} kernels on Grauert tubes, providing additional results that may be useful in applications. In particular, focusing on the…
