Abstract

We study the sequence of polynomials {Sn}n0\{S_n\}_{n\geq 0} that are orthogonal with respect to the general discrete Sobolev-type inner product f,gs= ⁣ ⁣f(x)g(x)dμ(x)+j=1Nk=0djλj,kf(k)(cj)g(k)(cj), \langle f,g \rangle_{\mathsf{s}}=\!\int\! f(x) g(x)d\mu(x)+\sum_{j=1}^{N}\sum_{k=0}^{d_j}\lambda_{j,k} f^{(k)}(c_j)g^{(k)}(c_j), where μ\mu is a finite Borel measure whose support \suppμ\supp{\mu} is an infinite set of the real line, λj,k0\lambda_{j,k}\geq 0, and the mass points cic_i, i=1,,Ni=1,\dots,N are real values outside the interior of the convex hull of \suppμ\supp{\mu} (ci\RR\interch\suppμc_i\in\RR\setminus\inter{\ch{\supp{\mu}}}). Under some restriction of order in the discrete part of ,s\langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle_{\mathsf{s}}, we prove that SnS_n has at least ndn-d^* zeros on \interch\suppμ\inter{\ch{\supp{\mu}}}, being dd^* the number of terms in the discrete part of ,s\langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle_{\mathsf{s}}. Finally, we obtain the outer relative asymptotic for {Sn}\{S_n\} in the case that the measure μ\mu is the classical Laguerre measure, and for each mass point, only one order derivative appears in the discrete part of ,s\langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle_{\mathsf{s}}.
