We prove a version of strong asymptotics of Christoffel functions with varying weights for a general class of sets E and measures in the complex plane. This class includes all regular measures in the sense of Stahl-Totik on regular compact…

Let theta = p/q with p and q relatively prime and u and v a pair of unitaries such that u v = e^{i theta} v u, where u and v generate the rotation C*-algebra A_theta. Let h_{theta, lambda} = u + u^{-1} + lambda/2(v + v^{-1}) be the almost…
We consider the normal matrix model with a cubic potential. The model is ill-defined, and in order to reguralize it, Elbau and Felder introduced a model with a cut-off and corresponding system of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a…
Surprisingly, apart from some special cases, simple asymptotic expansions for the associated Legendre functions $P_\nu ^\mu (z)$ and $Q_\nu ^\mu (z)$ for large degree $\nu$ or large order $\mu$ are not available in the literature. The main…
We consider the Hankel determinant and orthogonal polynomials with respect to the deformed Laguerre weight $w(x; t) = {x^\alpha }{\mathrm e^{ - x}}{(x + t)^\lambda },\; x\in \mathbb{R}^{+} $ with parameters $\alpha > -1,\; t > 0$ and…
In general, perturbative expansions of observables in powers of the coupling constant in quantum field theories are asymptotic series. In many cases it is possible to apply resummation techniques to assign a unique finite value to an…
This paper is a continuation of our analysis, begun in arXiv:1310.2276, of the rational solutions of the inhomogeneous Painleve-II equation and associated rational solutions of the homogeneous coupled Painleve-II system in the limit of…
Motivated by the classical Rodrigues' formula, we study the root asymptotic of the polynomial sequence $$R_{[\alpha n],n,P}(z)=\frac{d^{[\alpha n]}P^n(z)}{dz^{[\alpha n]}}, n= 0,1,\dots$$ where ${P(z)}$ is a fixed univariate polynomial,…
We derive bulk asymptotics of skew-orthogonal polynomials (sop) $\pi^{\bt}_{m}$, $\beta=1$, 4, defined w.r.t. the weight $\exp(-2NV(x))$, $V (x)=gx^4/4+tx^2/2$, $g>0$ and $t<0$. We assume that as $m,N \to\infty$ there exists an $\epsilon >…
The convolution of indicators of two conjugacy classes on the symmetric group S_q is usually a complicated linear combination of indicators of many conjugacy classes. Similarly, a product of the moments of the Jucys--Murphy element involves…
In this paper we obtain large $z$ asymptotic expansions in the complex plane for the tau function corresponding to special function solutions of the Painlev\'e II differential equation. Using the fact that these tau functions can be written…
Usually when solving differential or difference equations via series solutions one encounters divergent series in which the coefficients grow like a factorial. Surprisingly, in the $q$-world the $n$th coefficient is often of the size…
We use the Legendre polynomials and the Hermite polynomials as two examples to illustrate a simple and systematic technique on deriving asymptotic formulas for orthogonal polynomials via recurrence relations. Another application of this…
This paper complements the recent investigation of \cite{DM} on the asymptotic behavior of polynomials orthogonal over the interior of an analytic Jordan curve $L$. We study the specific case of $L=\{z= w-1 +(w-1)^{-1},\ |w|=R\}$, for some…
A new interpretation and applications of the ``Diophantine'' and factorisation properties of {\em finite} orthogonal polynomials in the Askey scheme are explored. The corresponding twelve polynomials are the ($q$-)Racah, (dual, $q$-)Hahn,…
We study right limits of the Bergman Shift matrix. Our results have applications to ratio asymptotics, weak asymptotic measures, relative asymptotics, and zero counting measures of the orthogonal and orthonormal polynomials.
We study asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials associated to the generalized Jacobi weight, which is a weight function with a finite number of algebraic singularities on $[-1,1]$. The recurrence coefficients…
We compute the pointwise asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a general class of pure point measures supported on finite sets as both the number of nodes of the measure and also the degree of the orthogonal polynomials…
We examine the asymptotics of a sequence of lacunary binomial-type polynomials $\wp_n(z)$ as $n\rightarrow\infty$ that have arisen in the problem of the expected number of independent sets of vertices of finite simple graphs. We extend the…
