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 describe a Riemann-Hilbert problem for a family of $q$-orthogonal polynomials, $\{ P_n(x) \}_{n=0}^\infty$, and use it to deduce their asymptotic behaviours in the limit as the degree, $n$, approaches infinity. We find that the…

Following the pioneering work of Duistermaat and Gr\"unbaum, we call a family $\{p_n(x)\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ of polynomials bispectral, if the polynomials are simultaneously eigenfunctions of two commutative algebras of operators: one…

We study asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials associated to the generalized Jacobi weight, which is a weight function with a finite number of algebraic singularities on $[-1,1]$. The recurrence coefficients…

We study Wronskians of Appell polynomials indexed by integer partitions. These families of polynomials appear in rational solutions of certain Painlev\'e equations and in the study of exceptional orthogonal polynomials. We determine their…

Riemann-Hilbert problems are jump problems for holomorphic functions along given interfaces. They arise in various contexts, e.g. in the asymptotic study of certain nonlinear partial differential equations and in the asymptotic analysis of…

Using the steepest descent method of Deift-Zhou, we derive locally uniform asymptotic formulas for the Meixner polynomials. These include an asymptotic formula in a neighborhood of the origin, a result which as far as we are aware has not…

We investigate a Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP), whose solution corresponds to a group of $q$-orthogonal polynomials studied earlier by Ismail et al. Using RHP theory we determine new asymptotic results in the limit as the degree of the…

In this work, some theorems are established for orthogonal trigonometric polynomials (OTP) including Favard, Baxter, Geronimus, Rakhmanov, Szeg\"o and the strong Szeg\"o theorems which are important in the theory of orthogonal polynomials…

We study a family of the Laurent biorthogonal polynomials arising from the Hermite continued fraction for a ratio of two complete elliptic integrals. Recurrence coefficients, explicit expression and the weight function for these polynomials…

We study the Fourier coefficients of functions satisfying a certain version of Wright's circle method with finitely many major arcs. We show that the Jensen polynomials associated with such Fourier coefficients are asymptotically…

In this paper, we study a class of orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence relation with periodic coefficients. We derive explicit formulas for the generating function, the associated continued fraction, the orthogonality…

After a brief introduction to Ramanujan's method of summation, we give an expansion of the Riemann Zeta function in the critical strip as a convergent series $\sum_{m\geq 0}x_m P_m(s) $ where the functions $P_m$ are polynomials with their…

We discuss as a fundamental characteristic of orthogonal polynomials like the existence of a Lie algebra behind them, can be added to their other relevant aspects. At the basis of the complete framework for orthogonal polynomials we put…

We derive semiclassical asymptotics for the orthogonal polynomials P_n(z) on the line with respect to the exponential weight \exp(-NV(z)), where V(z) is a double-well quartic polynomial, in the limit when n, N \to \infty. We assume that…

We study the distribution of values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on vertical lines $\Re s + i \mathbb{R}$, by using the theory of Hilbert space. We show among other things, that, $\zeta(s)$ has a Fourier expansion in the…

This paper provides the details of Remark 5.4 in the author's paper "Askey-Wilson polynomials as zonal spherical functions on the SU(2) quantum group", SIAM J. Math. Anal. 24 (1993), 795-813. In formula (5.9) of the 1993 paper a…

We consider orthogonal polynomials p_n with respect to an exponential weight function w(x) = exp(-P(x)). The related equations for the recurrence coefficients have been explored by many people, starting essentially with Laguerre [49], in…

In this paper we derive uniform asymptotic expansions for the partial sums of the exponential series. We indicate how this information will be used in a later publication to obtain full and explicitly computable asymptotic expansions with…

We derive Mehler--Heine type asymptotic formulas for Charlier and Meixner polynomials, and also for their associated families. These formulas provide good approximations for the polynomials in the neighborhood of $x=0,$ and determine the…
