We consider the semi-classical generalized Freud weight function \[w_{\lambda}(x;t) = |x|^{2\lambda+1}\exp(-x^4 +tx^2),\qquad x\in\mathbb{R},\] with $ \lambda>-1$ and $t\in\mathbb{R}$ parameters. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the…

Let $w$ be a weight on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ having the form \[w(z)=|v(z)|^2\prod_{k=1}^s\left|\frac{z-a_k}{1-z\overline{a}_k}\right|^{m_k}\,,\quad m_k>-2,\ |a_k|<1,\] where $v$ is analytic and free of zeros in $\overline{\mathbb{D}}$,…

We study Widom factors for (a) monic orthogonal polynomials in $L^2$ with respect to the equilibrium measure of a compact set $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ and (b) residual polynomials normalized at an exterior point. Using weakly equilibrium Cantor…

We study the bifurcation values of real polynomial maps $f: \bR^{2n} \to \bR^2$ which reflect the lack of asymptotic regularity at infinity. We formulate real counterparts of some structure results which have been previously proved in case…

We consider polynomials $p_n^{\omega}(x)$ that are orthogonal with respect to the oscillatory weight $w(x)=e^{i\omega x}$ on $[-1,1]$, where $\omega>0$ is a real parameter. A first analysis of $p_n^{\omega}(x)$ for large values of $\omega$…

The paper has three parts. In the first part we apply the theory of commuting pairs of (pseudo) difference operators to the (formal) asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials: using purely geometrical arguments we show heuristically that the…

We calculate the chromatic polynomials $P((G_s)_m,q)$ and, from these, the asymptotic limiting functions $W(\{G_s\},q)=\lim_{n \to \infty}P(G_s,q)^{1/n}$ for families of $n$-vertex graphs $(G_s)_m$ comprised of $m$ repeated subgraphs $H$…

There is a vast theory of Chebyshev and residual polynomials and their asymptotic behavior. The former ones maximize the leading coefficient and the latter ones maximize the point evaluation with respect to an $L^\infty$ norm. We study…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the (skew) Macdonald and Jack symmetric polynomials as the number of variables grows to infinity. We characterize their limits in terms of certain variational problems. As an intermediate…

We study the problem of minimizing the supremum norm, on a segment of the real line or on a compact set in the plane, by polynomials with integer coefficients. The extremal polynomials are naturally called integer Chebyshev polynomials.…

In this paper we present a survey about analytic properties of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weighted Sobolev inner product such that the vector of measures has an unbounded support. In particular, we are focused in the study of…
