We answer Totik's question on weighted Bernstein's inequalities showing that $$ \|T_n'\|_{L_p(\omega)} \le C(p,\omega)\, {n}\,\|T_n\|_{L_p(\omega)},\qquad 0<p\le \infty, $$ holds for all trigonometric polynomials $T_n$ and certain…

Chebyshev varieties are algebraic varieties parametrized by Chebyshev polynomials or their multivariate generalizations. We determine the dimension, degree, singular locus and defining equations of these varieties. We explain how they play…
Tikhonov regularization for projected solutions of large-scale ill-posed problems is considered. The Golub-Kahan iterative bidiagonalization is used to project the problem onto a subspace and regularization then applied to find a subspace…

We consider problems in which we are given a rooted tree as input, and must find a subtree with the same root, optimizing some objective function of the nodes in the subtree. When this function is the sum of constant node weights, the…
Given $n$ polynomials $p_1, \dots, p_n$ of degree at most $n$ with $\|p_i\|_\infty \le 1$ for $i \in [n]$, we show there exist signs $x_1, \dots, x_n \in \{-1,1\}$ so that \[\Big\|\sum_{i=1}^n x_i p_i\Big\|_\infty < 30\sqrt{n}, \] where…

We prove a constant term theorem which is useful for finding weight polynomials for Ballot/Motzkin paths in a strip with a fixed number of arbitrary `decorated' weights as well as an arbitrary `background' weight. Our CT theorem, like…
We consider Chebyshev polynomials, $T_n(z)$, for infinite, compact sets $\frak{e} \subset \mathbb{R}$ (that is, the monic polynomials minimizing the sup-norm, $\Vert T_n \Vert_{\frak{e}}$, on $\frak{e}$). We resolve a $45+$ year old…
In this manuscript, we analyze the expansions of functions in orthogonal polynomials associated with a general weight function in a multidimensional setting. Such orthogonal polynomials can be obtained by Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization.…
We propose a general method to construct symmetric tensor polynomials in the D-dimensional Euclidean space which are orthonormal under a general weight. The D-dimensional Hermite polynomials are a particular case of the present ones for the…
