Sequences of orthogonal Laurent polynomials,bi-orthogonality and quadrature formulas on the unit circle

In this paper, the construction of orthogonal bases in the space of Laurent polynomials on the unit circle is considered. As an application, a connection with the so-called bi-orthogonal systems of trigonometric polynomials is established and quadrature formulas on the unit circle based on Laurent polynomials are studied.     

Asymptotic constants for the error of Hermite-Fejér interpolation on the unit circle

The paper deals with the rate of convergence for the Laurent polynomials of Hermite-Fejér interpolation on the unit circle with nodal system the n roots of a complex number with modulus one. The order of convergence and the asymptotic constants are obtained when we consider analytic functions on open disks and open annulus containing the unit circle.     

About measures and nodal systems for which the Hermite interpolants uniformly converge to continuous functions on the circle and interval

We obtain the Laurent polynomial of Hermite interpolation on the unit circle for nodal systems more general than those formed by the n-roots of complex numbers with modulus one. Under suitable assumptions for the nodal system, that is, when it is constituted by the zeros of para-orthogonal polynomials with respect to appropriate measures or when it satisfies certain properties, we prove the convergence of the polynomial of Hermite-Fejér interpolation for continuous functions. Moreover, we also study the general Hermite interpolation problem on the unit circle and we obtain a sufficient condition on the interpolation conditions for the derivatives, in order to have uniform convergence for continuous functions.Finally, we obtain some improvements on the Hermite interpolation problems on the interval and for the Hermite trigonometric interpolation.     

Orthogonal polynomials and some q-beta integrals of Ramanujan

Two integrals of Ramanujan are used to define a q-analogue of the Euler beta integral on the real line and of the Cauchy beta-integral on the complex unit circle. Such integrals are connected to orthogonal, biorthogonal and Laurent polynomials. Explicit examples of Laurent orthogonal polynomials are given on the real line and on the circle.     

Relations between univalent and orthogonal polynomials

Two sequences of polynomials are studied. One satisfies a three term recurrence relation for specific parameters and another a para-orthogonality property. Using the fact that these polynomials have their zeros lying on the unit circle and some other properties, we establish a criterion in order that the polynomials be univalent in the open unit disk.     

Rakhmanov's theorem for orthogonal matrix polynomials on the unit circle

Rakhmanov's theorem for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle gives a sufficient condition on the orthogonality measure for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle, in order that the reflection coefficients (the recurrence coefficients in the Szegő recurrence relation) converge to zero. In this paper we give the analog for orthogonal matrix polynomials on the unit circle.     

Zeros of a family of hypergeometric para‐orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle

Para‐orthogonal polynomials derived from orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are known to have all their zeros on the unit circle. In this note we study the zeros of a family of hypergeometric para‐orthogonal polynomials. As tools to study these polynomials, we obtain new results which can be considered as extensions of certain classical results associated with three term recurrence relations and differential equations satisfied by orthogonal polynomials on the real line. One of these results which might be considered as an extension of the classical Sturm comparison theorem, enables us to obtain monotonicity with respect to the parameters for the zeros of these para‐orthogonal polynomials. Finally, a monotonicity of the zeros of Meixner‐Pollaczek polynomials is proved.     

On expansions in orthogonal polynomials

A recently introduced fast algorithm for the computation of the first N terms in an expansion of an analytic function into ultraspherical polynomials consists of three steps: Firstly, each expansion coefficient is represented as a linear combination of derivatives; secondly, it is represented, using the Cauchy integral formula, as a contour integral of the function multiplied by a kernel; finally, the integrand is transformed to accelerate the convergence of the Taylor expansion of the kernel, allowing for rapid computation using Fast Fourier Transform. In the current paper we demonstrate that the first two steps remain valid in the general setting of orthogonal polynomials on the real line with finite support, orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and Laurent orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle.     

Quadrature and orthogonal rational functions

Classical interpolatory or Gaussian quadrature formulas are exact on sets of polynomials. The Szegő quadrature formulas are the analogs for quadrature on the complex unit circle. Here the formulas are exact on sets of Laurent polynomials. In this paper we consider generalizations of these ideas, where the (Laurent) polynomials are replaced by rational functions that have prescribed poles. These quadrature formulas are closely related to certain multipoint rational approximants of Cauchy or Riesz–Herglotz transforms of a (positive or general complex) measure. We consider the construction and properties of these approximants and the corresponding quadrature formulas as well as the convergence and rate of convergence.

Discriminants and Functional Equations for Polynomials Orthogonal on the Unit Circle

We derive raising and lowering operators for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and find second order differential and q-difference equations for these polynomials. A general functional equation is found which allows one to relate the zeros of the orthogonal polynomials to the stationary values of an explicit quasi-energy and implies recurrences on the orthogonal polynomial coefficients. We also evaluate the discriminants and quantized discriminants of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle.     

Spectral factorization of Laurent polynomials

We analyse the performance of five numerical methods for factoring a Laurent polynomial, which is positive on the unit circle, as the modulus squared of a real algebraic polynomial. It is found that there is a wide disparity between the methods, and all but one of the methods are significantly influenced by the variation in magnitude of the coefficients of the Laurent polynomial, by the closeness of the zeros of this polynomial to the unit circle, and by the spacing of these zeros. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

An extension of Suffridge's convolution theorem

We present an extension of Suffridge's convolution theorem for polynomials with restricted zeros on the unit circle. We also discuss a possible extension of the theorem of Laguerre for those polynomials and give an answer to a long-standing open question by Suffridge regarding an extension of the theorem of Gauß-Lucas.     

Uniform Asymptotics for Second-Kind Ultraspherical Polynomials on the Unit Circle

The object under consideration is the system of orthonormal polynomials of the second kind which corresponds to ultraspherical weight function on the unit circle. We obtain a uniform asymptotic representation for such polynomials in the closed unit disk as well as two-sided bounds on the unit circle. October 24, 1996. Date revised: April 10, 1997.     

Exceptional Laurent biorthogonal polynomials through spectral transformations of generalized eigenvalue problems

A formulation is given for the spectral transformation of the generalized eigenvalue problem through the decomposition of the second-order differential operators. This allows us to construct some Laurent biorthogonal polynomial systems with gaps in the degree of the polynomial sequence. These correspond to an exceptional-type extension of the orthogonal polynomials, as an extension of the Laurent biorthogonal polynomials. Specifically, we construct the exceptional extension of the Hendriksen–van Rossum polynomials, which are biorthogonal analogs of the classical orthogonal polynomials. Similar to the cases of exceptional extensions of classical orthogonal polynomials, both state-deletion and state-addition occur.     

Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for CMV operators associated with orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle

We provide a detailed treatment of Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for half-lattice and full-lattice CMV operators and discuss their systems of orthonormal Laurent polynomials on the unit circle, spectral functions, variants of Weyl–Titchmarsh functions, and Green's functions. In particular, we discuss the corresponding spectral representations of half-lattice and full-lattice CMV operators.     

Asymptotics for polynomials orthogonal over the unit disk with respect to a positive polynomial weight

We derive asymptotics for polynomials orthogonal over the complex unit disk with respect to a weight of the form ²|h(z)|, with h(z) a polynomial without zeros in |z|<1. The behavior of the polynomials is established at every point of the complex plane. The proofs are based on adapting to the unit disk a technique of J. Szabados for the asymptotic analysis of polynomials orthogonal over the unit circle with respect to the same type of weight.     

CMV Biorthogonal Laurent Polynomials: Perturbations and Christoffel Formulas

Quasidefinite sesquilinear forms for Laurent polynomials in the complex plane and corresponding CMV biorthogonal Laurent polynomial families are studied. Bivariate linear functionals encompass large families of orthogonalities such as Sobolev and discrete Sobolev types. Two possible Christoffel transformations of these linear functionals are discussed. Either the linear functionals are multiplied by a Laurent polynomial, or are multiplied by the complex conjugate of a Laurent polynomial. For the Geronimus transformation, the linear functional is perturbed in two possible manners as well, by a division by a Laurent polynomial or by a complex conjugate of a Laurent polynomial, in both cases the addition of appropriate masses (linear functionals supported on the zeros of the perturbing Laurent polynomial) is considered. The connection formulas for the CMV biorthogonal Laurent polynomials, its norms, and Christoffel–Darboux kernels, in all the four cases, are given. For the Geronimus transformation, the connection formulas for the second kind functions and mixed Christoffel–Darboux kernels are also given in the two possible cases. For prepared Laurent polynomials, i.e., of the form , , these connection formulas lead to quasideterminantal (quotient of determinants) Christoffel formulas for all the four transformations, expressing an arbitrary degree perturbed biorthogonal Laurent polynomial in terms of 2n unperturbed biorthogonal Laurent polynomials, their second kind functions or Christoffel–Darboux kernels and its mixed versions. Different curves are presented as examples, such as the real line, the circle, the Cassini oval, and the cardioid. The unit circle case, given its exceptional properties, is discussed in more detail. In this case, a particularly relevant role is played by the reciprocal polynomial, and the Christoffel formulas provide now with two possible ways of expressing the same perturbed quantities in terms of the original ones, one using only the nonperturbed biorthogonal family of Laurent polynomials, and the other using the Christoffel–Darboux kernels and its mixed versions, as well. Two examples are discussed in detail.     

Algorithms for solving Hermite interpolation problems using the Fast Fourier Transform

We present a method for computing the Hermite interpolation polynomial based on equally spaced nodes on the unit circle with an arbitrary number of derivatives in the case of algebraic and Laurent polynomials. It is an adaptation of the method of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) for this type of problems with the following characteristics: easy computation, small number of operations and easy implementation.In the second part of the paper we adapt the algorithm for computing the Hermite interpolation polynomial based on the nodes of the Tchebycheff polynomials and we also study Hermite trigonometric interpolation problems.     

A scalar Riemann boundary value problem approach to orthogonal polynomials on the circle

A scalar Riemann boundary value problem defining orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and the corresponding functions of the second kind is obtained. The Riemann problem is used for the asymptotic analysis of the polynomials orthogonal with respect to an analytical real-valued weight on the circle.
