In this paper, we study the orthogonal polynomials with respect to a singularly perturbed Pollaczek-Jacobi type weight $$ w(x,t):=(1-x^2)^\alpha\mathrm{e}^{-\frac{t}{1-x^{2}}},\qquad x\in[-1,1],\;\;\alpha>0,\;\;t>0. $$ By using the ladder…

Orthogonal polynomials and expansions are studied for the weight function $h_\kappa^2(x) \|x\|^{2\nu} (1-\|x\|^2)^{\mu-1/2}$ on the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $h_\kappa$ is a reflection invariant function, and for related weight…
