n this paper we refine Vahlen's 1895 result in Diophantine approximation by providing sharper bounds for the approximation coefficients, especially when at least one of the partial quotients $a_n$ or $a_{n+1}$ of the regular continued…
For the bi-orthogonal polynomials with the third degree polynomial potential functions, the 3 x 3 matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem is explicitly constructed. The developed approach admits an extension to the bi-orthogonal polynomials with…
The goal of this PhD thesis is to study a diophantine approximation problem stated by Schmidt in 1967. The problem aim to study the approximation of a subspace of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by rational subspaces, not necessarily of the same dimension,…
The theory of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to functional-difference…
Recently, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer introduced a new theory which allowed them to recover the main known inequalities relating the usual exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and to discover new ones. They…
We study polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to the modified Laguerre weight $z^{-n + \nu} e^{-Nz} (z-1)^{2b}$ in the limit where $n, N \to \infty$ with $N/n \to 1$ and $\nu$ is a fixed number in $\mathbb{R} \setminus…
In this work we show how to get advantage from the Riemann--Hilbert analysis in order to obtain information about the matrix orthogonal polynomials and functions of second kind associated with a weight matrix. We deduce properties for the…
We study multiple orthogonal polynomials exploiting their explicit determinantal representation in terms of moments. Our reasoning follows that applied to solve the Hermite-Pad\'{e} approximation and interpolation problems. We study also…
We derive explicit formulas for the resultants and discriminants of classical quasi-orthogonal polynomials, as a full generalization of the results of Dilcher and Stolarsky (2005) and Gishe and Ismail (2008). We consider a certain system of…
We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…
Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…
Consider the classical problem of rational simultaneous approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. The optimal lower bound on the gap between the induced ordinary and uniform approximation exponents has been established by Marnat and…
We consider regular polynomial interpolation algorithms on recursively defined sets of interpolation points which approximate global solutions of arbitrary well-posed systems of linear partial differential equations. Convergence of the…
We obtain closed expressions for weighted orthogonal polynomials and optimal approximants associated with the function $f(z)=1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(z_1+z_2)$ and a scale of Hilbert function spaces in the unit $2$-ball having reproducing…
We show that multiple orthogonal polynomials for r measures $(\mu_1,...,\mu_r)$ satisfy a system of linear recurrence relations only involving nearest neighbor multi-indices $\vec{n}\pm \vec{e}_j$, where $\vec{e}_j$ are the standard unit…
In this paper, we study the theory of orthogonal trigonometric polynomials (OTP). We obtain asymptotics of OTP with positive and analytic weight functions by Riemann-Hilbert approach and find they have relations with orthogonal polynomials…
We present two algorithms for constructing orthonormal bases of rational function vectors with respect to a discrete inner product, and discuss how to use them for a rational approximation problem. Building on the pencil-based formulation…
