We prove that there is a universal measure on the unit circle such that any probability measure on the unit disk is the limit distribution of some subsequence of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials. This follows from an extension of a…

We obtain new upper bounds on the number of distinct roots of lacunary polynomials over finite fields. Our focus will be on polynomials for which there is a large gap between consecutive exponents in the monomial expansion.

The absolute separation of a polynomial is the minimum nonzero difference between the absolute values of its roots. In the case of polynomials with integer coefficients, it can be bounded from below in terms of the degree and the height…

Let $p_n(x)$ be orthogonal polynomials associated to a measure $d\mu$ of compact support in $R$. If $E\not\in supp(d\mu)$, we show there is a $\delta>0$ so that for all $n$, either $p_n$ or $p_{n+1}$ has no zeros in $(E-\delta, E+\delta)$.…
