Classical Jacobi polynomials $P_{n}^{(\alpha,\beta)}$, with $\alpha, \beta>-1$, have a number of well-known properties, in particular the location of their zeros in the open interval $(-1,1)$. This property is no longer valid for other…

The big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials $(Q_n^{(0)}(x;\alpha,\beta,c))_n$ have been classically defined for $\alpha,\beta\in(-1,\infty)$, $c\in(-1,1)$. We extend this family so that wider sets of parameters are allowed, i.e., they are non-standard.…

We consider interlacing properties satisfied by the zeros of Jacobi polynomials in quasi-orthogonal sequences characterised by $\alpha>-1$, $-2<\beta<-1$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions under which a conjecture by Askey, that…

A Bernstein type inequality is obtained for the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{\alpha,\beta}(x)$, which is uniform for all degrees $n\ge0$, all real $\alpha,\beta\ge0$, and all values $x\in [-1,1]$. It provides uniform bounds on a complete set of…

We prove an inequality for Jacobi polynomials that \begin{align} \Delta_n(x):=P_n^{(\alpha_n,\beta_n)}(x)P_n^{(\alpha_{n+1},\beta_{n+1})}(x)- P_{n-1}^{(\alpha_n,\beta_n)}(x)P_{n+1}^{(\alpha_{n+1},\beta_{n+1})}(x)\le 0,\ \forall x\ge 1,…

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…

Assume that $\{a_{n};\,n\geq0\}$ is a sequence of positive numbers and $\sum a_{n}^{\,-1}<\infty$. Let $\alpha_{n}=ka_{n}$, $\beta_{n}=a_{n}+k^{2}a_{n-1}$ where $k\in(0,1)$ is a parameter, and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be an orthonormal polynomial…

Orthogonality of the Jacobi and of Laguerre polynomials, P_n^(a,b) and L_n^(a), is established for a,b complex (a,b not negative integers and a+b different from -2,-3,...) using the Hadamard finite part of the integral which gives their…

For a long time it has been a challenging goal to identify all orthogonal polynomial systems that occur as eigenfunctions of a linear differential equation. One of the widest classes of such eigenfunctions known so far, is given by…

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…

The Jacobi polynomials $\hat{P}_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)$ conform the canonical family of hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials (HOPs) with the two-parameter weight function $(1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta, \alpha,\beta>-1,$ on the interval…

Let ${\bf P}_k^{(\alpha, \beta)} (x)$ be an orthonormal Jacobi polynomial of degree $k.$ We will establish the following inequality \begin{equation*} \max_{x \in [\delta_{-1},\delta_1]}\sqrt{(x- \delta_{-1})(\delta_1-x)}…

Orthogonal polynomials on the real line always satisfy a three-term recurrence relation. The recurrence coefficients determine a tridiagonal semi-infinite matrix (Jacobi matrix) which uniquely characterizes the orthogonal polynomials. We…

Orthogonal polynomials $P_{n}(\lambda)$ are oscillating functions of $n$ as $n\to\infty$ for $\lambda$ in the absolutely continuous spectrum of the corresponding Jacobi operator $J$. We show that, irrespective of any specific assumptions on…

Our goal is to find an asymptotic behavior as $n\to\infty$ of orthogonal polynomials $P_{n}(z)$ defined by the Jacobi recurrence coefficients $a_{n}, b_{n}$. We suppose that the off-diagonal coefficients $a_{n}$ grow so rapidly that the…

T. Erd\'{e}lyi, A.P. Magnus and P. Nevai conjectured that for $\alpha, \beta \ge - {1/2} ,$ the orthonormal Jacobi polynomials ${\bf P}_k^{(\alpha, \beta)} (x)$ satisfy the inequality \begin{equation*} \max_{x \in…

Four Jacobi settings are considered in the context of Hardy's inequality: the trigonometric polynomials and functions, and the corresponding symmetrized systems. In the polynomial cases sharp Hardy's inequality is proved for the type…

We look for differential equations satisfied by the generalized Jacobi polynomials which are orthogonal on the interval [-1,1] with respect to the classical weight function for the Jacobi polynomials together with point masses at both…

In this contribution, we study the orthogonality conditions satisfied by Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials $U^{(a)}_n(x;q)$ when the parameters $a$ and $q$ are not necessarily real nor `classical', i.e., the linear functional $\bf u$ with…

We study Nevai's condition from the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the real line. We prove that a large class of measures with unbounded Jacobi parameters satisfies Nevai's condition locally uniformly on the support of the measure away…
