We show that the normalised ultraspherical polynomials, $G_n^{(\lambda)}(x)=C_n^{(\lambda)}(x)/C_n^{(\lambda)}(1)$, satisfy the following stronger version of Tur\'{a}n inequality, $$|x|^\theta \left(G_n^{(\lambda)}(x)\right)^2…

The orthogonal polynomials $p_n$ satisfy Tur\'an's inequality if $p_n^2(x)-p_{n-1}(x)p_{n+1}(x)\ge 0$ for $n\ge 1$ and for all $x$ in the interval of orthogonality. We give general criteria for orthogonal polynomials to satisfy Tur\'an's…

Originally, Tur\'{a}n's inequality states that if $(P_n(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ is the sequence of Legendre polynomials, then $\Delta_n(x):=P_n^2(x)-P_{n+1}(x)P_{n-1}(x)\geq0$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $x\in[-1,1]$. Gasper specified the…

Let \mu denote a symmetric probability measure on [-1,1] and let (p_n) be the corresponding orthogonal polynomials normalized such that p_n(1)=1. We prove that the normalized Tur{\'a}n determinant \Delta_n(x)/(1-x^2), where…

A recent conjecture by I. Ra\c{s}a asserts that the sum of the squared Bernstein basis polynomials is a convex function in $[0,1]$. This conjecture turns out to be equivalent to a certain upper pointwise estimate of the ratio…

The polynomials $p_n$ orthogonal on the interval $[-1,1],$ normalized by $p_n(1)=1,$ satisfy Tur\'an's inequality if $p_n^2(x)-p_{n-1}(x)p_{n+1}(x)\ge 0$ for $n\ge 1$ and for all $x$ in the interval of orthogonality. We give a general…

We establish conditions for the discrete versions of logarithmic concavity and convexity of the higher order regularized basic hypergeometric function with respect simultaneous shift of all its parameters. For a particular case of Heine's…

An elegant and fruitful way to bring harmonic analysis into the theory of orthogonal polynomials and special functions, or to associate certain Banach algebras with orthogonal polynomials satisfying a specific but frequently satisfied…

For a convex domain $K$ in the complex plane, the well-known general Bernstein-Markov inequality holds asserting that a polynomial $p$ of degree $n$ must have $||p'|| < c(K) n^2 ||p||$. On the other hand for polynomials in general, $||p'||$…

P. Tur\'an was the first to derive lower estimations on the uniform norm of the derivatives of polynomials $p$ of uniform norm $1$ on the interval I:=[-1,1] and the disk D:=$\{z \in C~:~|z| \le 1\}$, under the normalization condition that…

Some 76 years ago P. Tur\'an was the first to establish lower estimations of the ratio of the maximum norm of the derivatives of polynomials and the maximum norm of the polynomials themselves on the interval I:=[-1,1] and on the unit disk…

In 1939 P\'al Tur\'an and J\'anos Er\H{o}d initiated the study of lower estimations of maximum norms of derivatives of polynomials, in terms of the maximum norms of the polynomials themselves, on convex domains of the complex plane. As a…

The normalized incomplete beta function can be defined either as cumulative distribution function of beta density or as the Gauss hypergeometric function with one of the upper parameters equal to unity. Logarithmic concavity/convexity of…

We give a geometric approach to the proof of the $\lambda$-lemma. In particular, we point out the role pseudoconvexity plays in the proof.

A tiling of the sphere by triangles, squares, or hexagons is convex if every vertex has at most 6, 4, or 3 polygons adjacent to it, respectively. Assigning an appropriate weight to any tiling, our main result is explicit formulas for the…

We establish some new Tur\'an's type inequalities for orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence with monotonic coefficients. As a corollary we deduce asymptotic bounds on the extreme zeros of orthogonal polynomials with…

We study the following question posed by Turan. Suppose K is a convex body in Euclidean space which is symmetric with respect to the origin. Of all positive definite functions supported in K, and with value 1 at the origin, which one has…

For a convex domain K in the complex plane C, the well-known general Markov inequality asserting that a polynomial p of degree n ||p'|| < c(K) n^2 ||p|| holds. On the other hand for polynomials in general, ||p'|| can be arbitrarily small as…

In 1939 P. Tur\'an started to derive lower estimations on the norm of the derivatives of polynomials of (maximum) norm 1 on $I:=[-1,1]$ (interval) and $D:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}~:~|z|\le 1\}$ (disk), under the normalization condition that the…

Fix any $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$. We say that a set $S\subseteq\mathbb{C}$ is $\lambda$-$convex$ if, whenever $a$ and $b$ are in $S$, the point $(1-\lambda)a+\lambda b$ is also in $S$. If $S$ is also (topologically) closed, then we say that…
