We provide a full classification scheme for exceptional Jacobi operators and polynomials. The classification contains six degeneracy classes according to whether $\alpha,\beta$ or $\alpha\pm\beta$ assume integer values. Exceptional Jacobi…

We consider Jacobi matrices whose essential spectrum is a finite union of closed intervals. We focus on Szego's theorem, Jost solutions, and Szego asymptotics for this situation. This announcement describes talks the authors gave at OPSFA…

In general, point spectrum of an almost periodic Jacobi matrix can depend on the element of the hull. In this paper, we study the hull of the limit-periodic Jacobi matrix corresponding to the equilibrium measure of the Julia set of the…

We obtain the asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues of real symmetric tridiagonal matrices as their dimension increases to infinity and whose diagonal and off-diagonal elements asymptotically change with the index n as J_{nt+i nt+i}\sim…

We obtain sharp estimate on $p$-spectral gaps, or equivalently optimal constant in $p$-Poincar\'e inequalities, for metric measure spaces satisfying measure contraction property. We also prove the rigidity for the sharp $p$-spectral gap.

We study Jacobi matrices on trees with one end at inifinity. We show that the defect indices cannot be greater than 1 and give criteria for essential selfadjointness. We construct certain polynomials associated with matrices, which mimic…

We calculate the photonic band gap of triply periodic bicontinuous cubic structures and of tubular structures constructed from the skeletal graphs of triply periodic minimal surfaces. The effect of the symmetry and topology of the periodic…

We look for differential equations satisfied by the generalized Jacobi polynomials which are orthogonal on the interval [-1,1] with respect to the classical weight function for the Jacobi polynomials together with point masses at both…

A new way of encoding a non-self-adjoint Jacobi matrix $J$ by a spectral measure of $|J|$ together with a phase function was described by Pushnitski--\v Stampach in the bounded case. We present another perspective on this correspondence,…

Orthogonal polynomials on the real line always satisfy a three-term recurrence relation. The recurrence coefficients determine a tridiagonal semi-infinite matrix (Jacobi matrix) which uniquely characterizes the orthogonal polynomials. We…

We introduce two explicit examples of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle. Moments and the reflection coefficients are expressed in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. We find explicit expression for these polynomials in terms of a…

Periodic Jacobi operators naturally arise in numerous applications, forming a cornerstone in various fields. The spectral theory associated with these operators boasts an extensive body of literature. Considered as discretized counterparts…

For an arbitrary Hermitian period-$T$ Jacobi operator, we assume a perturbation by a Wigner-von Neumann type potential to devise subordinate solutions to the formal spectral equation for a (possibly infinite) real set, $S$, of the spectral…

We present two sharp, closed-form empirical Bernstein inequalities for symmetric random matrices with bounded eigenvalues. By sharp, we mean that both inequalities adapt to the unknown variance in a tight manner: the deviation captured by…

The Fourier restriction conjecture is a fundamental problem in harmonic analysis. In this paper, we investigate restriction estimates for degenerate higher codimensional quadratic surfaces and obtain sharp results for some types of…

We study the bispectrality of Jacobi type polynomials, which are eigenfunctions of higher-order differential operators and can be defined by taking suitable linear combinations of a fixed number of consecutive Jacobi polynomials. Jacobi…

We consider Jacobi matrices with zero diagonal and off-diagonals given by elements of the hull of the Fibonacci sequence and show that the spectrum has zero Lebesgue measure and all spectral measures are purely singular continuous. In…
