Polynomial approximation is studied in the Sobolev space $W_p^r(w_{\alpha,\beta})$ that consists of functions whose $r$-th derivatives are in weighted $L^p$ space with the Jacobi weight function $w_{\alpha,\beta}$. This requires…

We describe an approach for finding upper bounds on an ODE dynamical system's maximal Lyapunov exponent among all trajectories in a specified set. A minimization problem is formulated whose infimum is equal to the maximal Lyapunov exponent,…

Let $\mu$ be a non-trivial probability measure on the unit circle $\partial\bbD$, $w$ the density of its absolutely continuous part, $\alpha_n$ its Verblunsky coefficients, and $\Phi_n$ its monic orthogonal polynomials. In this paper we…

We discuss asymptotics of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the real line and on the unit circle when the recursion coefficients are periodic. The zeros on or near the absolutely continuous spectrum have a clock structure with spacings…

We study orthogonal polynomial systems arising from general pre-Hilbert inner products on polynomial spaces, beyond the classical framework of measures. To each such inner product we associate a canonical Laplacian defined from an abstract…

Several new inequalities for moduli of smoothness and errors of the best approximation of a function and its derivatives in the spaces $L_p$, $0<p<1$, are obtained. For example, it is shown that for any $0<p<1$ and $k,\,r\in \mathbb{N}$ one…

We introduce and study a special family of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle (OPUC). These OPUC satisfy a mirror symmetry property of their Verblunsky coefficients. Several equivalent conditions for the OPUC to be mirror symmetric…

Suppose that $\Omega$ is the open region in $\mathbb{R}^n$ above a Lipschitz graph and let $d$ denote the exterior derivative on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We construct a convolution operator $T $ which preserves support in $\bar{\Omega$}, is…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure with an infinite compact support on $\mathbb{R}$. Let us further assume that $(F_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a sequence of orthogonal polynomials for $\mu$ where $(f_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a sequence of nonlinear…

The best uniform polynomial approximation of the checkmark function $f(x)=|x-\alpha |$ is considered, as $\alpha$ varies in $(-1,1)$. For each fixed degree $n$, the minimax error $E_n (\alpha)$ is shown to be piecewise analytic in $\alpha$.…

We report an infinite number of orthonormal wave functions bases for the quantum problem of a free particle in presence of an applied external magnetic field. Each set of orthonormal wave functions (basis) is labeled by an integer $p$,…

We consider the spectrum of a two-dimensional Pauli operator with a compactly supported electric potential and a variable magnetic field with a positive mean value. The rate of accumulation of eigenvalues to zero is described in terms of…

We show that a partition of the unity (or POVM) on a Hilbert space that is almost orthogonal is close to an orthogonal POVM in the same von Neumann algebra. This generalizes to infinite dimension previous results in matrix algebras by…

The complex or non-hermitian orthogonal polynomials with analytic weights are ubiquitous in several areas such as approximation theory, random matrix models, theoretical physics and in numerical analysis, to mention a few. Due to the…
