We consider the inverse spectral problem for periodic Jacobi matrices in terms of the vertical slits on the quasi-momentum domain plus the Dirichlet eigenvalues, i.e., the Marchenko-Ostrovsky mapping. Moreover, we show that the gradients of…
The reciprocal Pascal matrix has entries $\binom{i+j}{j}^{-1}$. Explicit formullae for its LU-decomposition, the LU-decomposition of its inverse, and some related matrices are obtained. For all results, $q$-analogues are also presented.
We investigate the diagonal generating function of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers of the second kind $ \JS(n+k,n;z)$ by generalizing the analogous results for the Stirling and Legendre-Stirling numbers. More precisely, letting…
In this paper, we are concerned with Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)$ on the Bernstein ellipse with motivation mainly coming from recent studies of convergence rate of spectral interpolation. An explicit representation of…
Several examples of Jacobi matrices with an explicitly solvable spectral problem are worked out in detail. In all discussed cases the spectrum is discrete and coincides with the set of zeros of a special function. Moreover, the components…
In a recent work Killip and Nenciu gave random recurrences for the characteristic polynomials of certain unitary and real orthogonal upper Hessenberg matrices. The corresponding eigenvalue p.d.f.'s are beta-generalizations of the classical…
The sieved Jacobi polynomials have been introduced by Askey. These can be obtained from conveniently taking $q$ to be a root of unity in the Askey-Wilson polynomials. The question of determining if they are eigenfunctions of some operator…
We study the orthogonal polynomials associated with the equilibrium measure, in logarithmic potential theory, living on the attractor of an Iterated Function System. We construct sequences of discrete measures, that converge weakly to the…
In this paper we study the inverse spectral problem for Jacobi-type pencils. By a Jacobi-type pencil we mean the following pencil $J_5 - \lambda J_3$, where $J_3$ is a Jacobi matrix and $J_5$ is a semi-infinite real symmetric five-diagonal…
We study Jacobi matrices on trees with one end at inifinity. We show that the defect indices cannot be greater than 1 and give criteria for essential selfadjointness. We construct certain polynomials associated with matrices, which mimic…
We introduce here a generalization of the modified Bernstein polynomials for Jacobi weights using the $q$-Bernstein basis proposed by G.M. Phillips to generalize classical Bernstein Polynomials. The function is evaluated at points which are…
Lehmer constructs four classes of matrices constructed from roots of unity for which the characteristic polynomials and the $k$-th powers can be determined explicitly. Here we study a class of matrices which arise naturally in…
In this paper, we study a class of orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence relation with periodic coefficients. We derive explicit formulas for the generating function, the associated continued fraction, the orthogonality…
In this paper we study a generalization of the class of orthogonal polynomials on the real line. These polynomials satisfy the following relation: $(J_5 - \lambda J_3) \vec p(\lambda) = 0$, where $J_3$ is a Jacobi matrix and $J_5$ is a…
In this contribution, we introduce the multiplicative Jacobi polynomials that arise as one of the solutions of the multiplicative Sturm-Liouville equation \begin{equation*} \frac{d^*}{dx}\left( e^{(1-x^2)\omega(x)}\odot \frac{d^*y}{dx}…

New differential-recurrence properties of dual Bernstein polynomials are given which follow from relations between dual Bernstein and orthogonal Hahn and Jacobi polynomials. Using these results, a fourth-order differential equation…
We determine asymptotic formulas for the coefficients of a natural class of negative index and negative weight Jacobi forms. These coefficients can be viewed as a refinement of the numbers $p_k(n)$ of partitions of n into k colors. Part of…
Multi-indexed Jacobi polynomials are defined by the Wronskian of four types of eigenfunctions of a deformed P\"oschl-Teller Hamiltonian. We give a correspondence between multi-indexed Jacobi polynomials and pairs of Maya diagrams, and we…
