We develop a theory of polynomials and, in particular, an analog of the theory of Legendre orthogonal polynomials on the bubble-diamond fractals, a class of fractal sets that can be viewed as the completion of a limit of a sequence of…
Orthogonal polynomials of degree $n$ with respect to the weight function $W_\mu(x) = (1-\|x\|^2)^\mu$ on the unit ball in $\RR^d$ are known to satisfy the partial differential equation $$ [ \Delta - \la x, \nabla \ra^2 - (2 \mu +d) \la x,…
We provide a representation in terms of certain canonical functions for a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weight that is strictly positive and analytic on the unit circle. These formulas yield a complete asymptotic…
A classical result due to Bochner classifies the orthogonal polynomials on the real line which are common eigenfunctions of a second order linear differential operator. We settle a natural version of the Bochner problem on the unit circle…
We discuss the relationship between the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a semi-classical Laguerre weight and classical solutions of the fourth Painlev\'e equation. We show that the coefficients in these…
We study orthogonal polynomials for a weight function defined over a domain of revolution, where the domain is formed from rotating a two-dimensional region and goes beyond the quadratic domains. Explicit constructions of orthogonal bases…
In this survey, different aspects of the theory of orthogonal polynomials of one (real or complex) variable are reviewed. Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are not discussed.
Given a bivariate weight function defined on the positive quadrant of $\mathbb{R}^2$, we study polynomials in two variables orthogonal with respect to varying measures obtained by special modifications of this weight function. In…
Every classical orthogonal polynomial system $p_n(x)$ satisfies a three-term recurrence relation of the type \[ p_{n+1}(x)=(A_nx+B_n)p_n(x)-C_np_{n-1}(x)~ (n=0,1,2,\ldots, p_{-1}\equiv 0), \] with $C_nA_nA_{n-1}>0$. Moreover, Favard's…
We develop a numerical method for computing with orthogonal polynomials that are orthogonal on multiple, disjoint intervals for which analytical formulae are currently unknown. Our approach exploits the Fokas--Its--Kitaev Riemann--Hilbert…
Two families of d-orthogonal polynomials related to su(2) are identified and studied. The algebraic setting allows their full characterization (explicit expressions, recurrence relations, difference equations, generating functions, etc.) of…
Orthogonal polynomials with respect to the hypergeometric distribution on lattices in polyhedral domains in ${\mathbb R}^d$, which include hexagons in ${\mathbb R}^2$ and truncated tetrahedrons in ${\mathbb R}^3$, are defined and studied.…
We show that if m is a probability measure with infinite support on the unit circle having no singular component and a differentiable weight, then the corresponding paraorthogonal polynomial P_n(z;B) solves an explicit second order linear…
Let $R$ be a root system of type BC in $\mathfrak a=\mathbb R^r$ of general positive multiplicity. We introduce certain canonical weight function on $\mathbb R^r$ which in the case of symmetric domains corresponds to the integral kernel of…
By using the Szeg\H{o}'s transformation we deduce new relations between the recurrence coefficients for orthogonal polynomials on the real line and the Verblunsky parameters of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. Moreover, we study…
When a nontrivial measure $\mu$ on the unit circle satisfies the symmetry $d\mu(e^{i(2\pi-\theta)}) = - d\mu(e^{i\theta})$ then the associated OPUC, say $S_n$, are all real. In this case, Delsarte and Genin, in 1986, have shown that the two…
The differential systems satisfied by orthogonal polynomials with arbitrary semiclassical measures supported on contours in the complex plane are derived, as well as the compatible systems of deformation equations obtained from varying such…
In this paper, we study a family of orthogonal polynomials $\{\phi_n(z)\}$ arising from nonlinear coherent states in quantum optics. Based on the three-term recurrence relation only, we obtain a uniform asymptotic expansion of $\phi_n(z)$…
In an important paper, Zagier proved that certain half-integral weight modular forms are generating functions for traces of polynomials in the $j$-function. It turns out that Zagier's work makes it possible to algorithmically compute…
Let $w$ be a weight on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ having the form \[w(z)=|v(z)|^2\prod_{k=1}^s\left|\frac{z-a_k}{1-z\overline{a}_k}\right|^{m_k}\,,\quad m_k>-2,\ |a_k|<1,\] where $v$ is analytic and free of zeros in $\overline{\mathbb{D}}$,…
