Chebyshev polynomials related to Jacobi weights
Abstract
We investigate Chebyshev polynomials corresponding to Jacobi weights and determine monotonicity properties of their related Widom factors. This complements work by Bernstein from 1930-31 where the asymptotical behavior of the related Chebyshev norms was established. As a part of the proof, we analyze a Bernstein-type inequality for Jacobi polynomials due to Chow et al. Our findings shed new light on the asymptotical uniform bounds of Jacobi polynomials. We also show a relation between weighted Chebyshev polynomials on the unit circle and Jacobi weighted Chebyshev polynomials on [-1,1]. This generalizes work by Lachance et al. In order to complete the picture we provide numerical experiments on the remaining cases that our proof does not cover.
