We study the distances, called spacings, between pairs of neighboring energy levels for the quantum harmonic oscillator. Specifically, we consider all energy levels falling between E and E+1, and study how the spacings between these levels…
For the Hahn and Krawtchouk polynomials orthogonal on the set $\{0, \ldots,N\}$ new identities for the sum of squares are derived which generalize the trigonometric identity for the Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind. These…
In some applications, like some areas in stochastic geometry, a convenient change of variables involves spheres. In this review we summarize formulas of Blaschke-Petkantschin type, that help to pass from integration over $k$-tuples of…
We show that almost all the zeros of any finite linear combination of independent characteristic polynomials of random unitary matrices lie on the unit circle. This result is the random matrix analogue of an earlier result by Bombieri and…
Orthogonal rational functions (ORF) on the unit circle generalize orthogonal polynomials (poles at infinity) and Laurent polynomials (poles at zero and infinity). In this paper we investigate the properties of and the relation between these…
We study certain points significant for the hyperbolic geometry of the unit disk. We give explicit formulas for the intersection points of the Euclidean lines and the stereographic projections of great circles of the Riemann sphere passing…
When a nontrivial measure $\mu$ on the unit circle satisfies the symmetry $d\mu(e^{i(2\pi-\theta)}) = - d\mu(e^{i\theta})$ then the associated OPUC, say $S_n$, are all real. In this case, Delsarte and Genin, in 1986, have shown that the two…
We will study algebraic hyper-surfaces on the real unit sphere $\mathcal S^{n-1}$ given by an homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables with the view point, rarely exploited, of Euclidian geometry using Bombieri's scalar product and…
We present an expository introduction to orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle.
The problem of interpolation at $(n+1)^2$ points on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ by spherical polynomials of degree at most $n$ is proved to have a unique solution for several sets of points. The points are located on a number of circles…
We present fully polynomial approximation schemes for a broad class of Holant problems with complex edge weights, which we call Holant polynomials. We transform these problems into partition functions of abstract combinatorial structures…
New bispectral polynomials orthogonal on a Bannai-Ito bi-lattice (uniform quadri-lattice) are obtained from an unconventional truncation of the untruncated Bannai-Ito and complementary Bannai-Ito polynomials. A complete characterization of…
New bispectral polynomials orthogonal on a quadratic bi-lattice are obtained from a truncation of Wilson polynomials. Recurrence relation and difference equation are provided. The recurrence coefficients can be encoded in a perturbed…
Let $x_1$ and $x_k$ be the least and the largest zeros of the Laguerre or Jacobi polynomial of degree $k.$ We shall establish sharp inequalities of the form $x_1 <A, x_k >B,$ which are uniform in all the parameters involved. Together with…
We propose a simple uniform lower bound on the spacings between the successive zeros of the Laguerre polynomials $L_n^{(\alpha)}$ for all $\alpha>-1$. Our bound is sharp regarding the order of dependency on $n$ and $\alpha$ in various…
This paper is devoted to the study of general (Laurent) polynomial modifications of moment functionals on the unit circle, i.e., associated with hermitian Toeplitz matrices. We present a new approach which allows us to study polynomial…
A partition polynomial is a refinement of the partition number p(n) whose coefficients count some special partition statistic. Just as partition numbers have useful asymptotics so do partition polynomials. In fact, their asymptotics…
We study probability measures on the unit circle corresponding to orthogonal polynomials whose sequence of Verblunsky coefficients is invariant under the Fibonacci substitution. We focus in particular on the fractal properties of the…
We give the asymptotic behavior of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials, after appropriate scaling, for which the orthogonality measure is supported on the $q$-lattice $\{q^k, k=0,1,2,3,\ldots\}$, where $0 < q < 1$. The asymptotic…
