We investigate the asymptotic properties of orthogonal polynomials for a class of inner products including the discrete Sobolev inner products $\langle h,g \rangle = \int hg\, d\mu + \sum_{j=1}^m \sum_{i=0}^{N_j} M_{j,i} h^{(i)}(c_j)…

Orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $w_{\beta,\gamma}(t) = t^\beta (1-t)^\gamma$, $\gamma > -1$, on the conic surface $\{(x,t): \|x\| = t, \, x \in \mathbb{R}^d, \, t \le 1\}$ are studied recently, and are shown to be…

In this paper, we study the orthogonal polynomials with respect to a singularly perturbed Pollaczek-Jacobi type weight $$ w(x,t):=(1-x^2)^\alpha\mathrm{e}^{-\frac{t}{1-x^{2}}},\qquad x\in[-1,1],\;\;\alpha>0,\;\;t>0. $$ By using the ladder…

Let $(P_n(x;z;\lambda))_{n\geq 0}$ be the sequence of monic orthogonal polynomials with respect to the symmetric linear functional $\mathbf{s}$ defined by $$\langle\mathbf{s},p\rangle=\int_{-1}^1 p(x)(1-x^2)^{(\lambda-1/2)}…

Suppose $\{P_{n}^{(\alpha, \beta)}(x)\}_{n=0}^\infty $ is a sequence of Jacobi polynomials with $ \alpha, \beta >-1.$ We discuss special cases of a question raised by Alan Sokal at OPSFA in 2019, namely, whether the zeros of $…

Strong asymptotics on the whole complex plane of a sequence of monic Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha_n, \beta_n)}$ is studied, assuming that $$ \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{\alpha_n}{n}=A, \qquad \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{\beta _n}{n}=B, $$ with…

We develop a theory of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials on the Sierpi\'nski gasket ($SG$). These orthogonal polynomials arise through the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalisation process applied on the set of monomials on $SG$ using several notions of…

For a long time it has been a challenging goal to identify all orthogonal polynomial systems that occur as eigenfunctions of a linear differential equation. One of the widest classes of such eigenfunctions known so far, is given by…

In the theory of orthogonal polynomials, as well as in its intersection with harmonic analysis, it is an important problem to decide whether a given orthogonal polynomial sequence $(P_n(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ satisfies nonnegative…

In this paper we deal with polynomials orthogonal with respect to an inner product involving derivatives, that is, a Sobolev inner product. Indeed, we consider Sobolev type polynomials which are orthogonal with respect to $$(f,g)=\int fg…

The big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials $(Q_n^{(0)}(x;\alpha,\beta,c))_n$ have been classically defined for $\alpha,\beta\in(-1,\infty)$, $c\in(-1,1)$. We extend this family so that wider sets of parameters are allowed, i.e., they are non-standard.…

In this paper, we consider the second-order differential expression \ell [y](x)=(1-x^2)(-(y'(x))'+k(1-x^2)^(-1)y(x))(x\in(-1,1)). This is the Jacobi differential expression with non-classical parameters {\alpha} = {\beta}= -1 in contrast to…

We study the differential equation $ - (p(x) y')' + q(x) y' = \lambda y,$ where $p(x)$ is a polynomial of degree at most 2 and $q(x)$ is a polynomial of degree at most 1. This includes the classical Jacobi polynomials, Hermite polynomials,…

Classical Jacobi polynomials $P_{n}^{(\alpha,\beta)}$, with $\alpha, \beta>-1$, have a number of well-known properties, in particular the location of their zeros in the open interval $(-1,1)$. This property is no longer valid for other…
