We prove that a variety of oscillatory and polynomial Carleson operators are uniformly bounded on the family of parameters under considerations. As a particular application of our techniques, we prove uniform bounds for oscillatory Carleson…

A joint algebraic interpretation of the biorthogonal Askey polynomials on the unit circle and of the orthogonal Jacobi polynomials is offered. It ties their bispectral properties to an algebra called the meta-Jacobi algebra $m\mathfrak{J}$.

Asymptotic approximations of Jacobi polynomials are given in terms of elementary functions for large degree $n$ and parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$. From these new results, asymptotic expansions of the zeros are derived and methods are…

We consider orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle with respect to a weight which is a quotient of $q$-gamma functions. We show that the Verblunsky coefficients of these polynomials satisfy discrete Painlev\'e equations, in a Lax form,…

We apply the methods of classical approximation theory (extreme properties of polynomials) to study the essential support $\Sigma_{ac}$ of the absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices. First, we prove an upper bound on the measure…

Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda + \sum_{k = 1}^d [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are linear forms in…

Generalized Jacobi polynomials are orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function which is smooth and positive on the whole interval of orthogonality up to a finite number of points, where algebraic singularities occur. The influence…

A hierarchy of matrix-valued polynomials which generalize the Jacobi polynomials is found. Defined by a Rodrigues formula, they are also products of a sequence of differential operators. Each class of polynomials is complete, satisfies a…

The purpose of this work is to analyse a family of mutually orthogonal polynomials on the unit ball with respect to an inner product which includes an additional term on the sphere. First, we will get connection formulas relating classical…

Combining a modular approach to the $abc$ conjecture developed by the second author with the classical method of linear forms in logarithms, we obtain improved unconditional bounds for two classical problems. First, for Szpiro's conjecture…

We give formulas for the density of the measure of orthogonality for orthonormal polynomials with unbounded recurrence coefficients. The formulas involve limits of appropriately scaled Tur\'an determinants or Christoffel functions. Exact…

Spectral methods are an efficient way to solve partial differential equations on domains possessing certain symmetries. The utility of a method depends strongly on the choice of spectral basis. In this paper we describe a set of bases built…
