Certain asymptotic expansions for laguerre polynomials and Charlier polynomials

Here proposed are certain asympotic expansion formulas for L _n ^(∞-1) (λz) and C _n ^(∞) (λz) in which 0<w=0(λ) and C_n/(^w)(λz), z being a complex number. Also presented are certain estimates for the remainders (error bounds) of the asymptotic expansions within the regions D₁(-∞<R_ez<=1/2(ω/λ) and D₂(1/2(ω/λ)<=Re_z<∞), respectively.

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.     

Inequalities for generalized nonnegative polynomials

We define generalized polynomials as products of polynomials raised to positive real powers. The generalized degree can be defined in a natural way. We prove Markov-, Bernstein-, and Remez-type inequalities inL ^p (0p) and Nikolskii-type inequalities for such generalized polynomials. Our results extend the corresponding inequalities for ordinary polynomials.Communicated by George G. Lorentz.

Integral representations for the generalized Bedient polynomials and the generalized Cesàro polynomials

The main object of this paper is to investigate several general families of hypergeometric polynomials and their associated multiple integral representations. By suitably specializing our main results, the corresponding integral representations are deduced for such familiar classes of hypergeometric polynomials as (for example) the generalized Bedient polynomials and the generalized Cesàro polynomials. Each of the integral representations, which are derived in this paper, may be viewed also as a linearization relationship for the product of two different members of the associated family of hypergeometric polynomials.     

Period polynomials for generalized cyclotomic periods

The theory of cyclotomic period polynomials is developed for general periods of an arbitrary modulus, extending known results for the Gauss periods of prime modulus. Primes dividing the discriminant of the period polynomial are investigated, as are those primes dividing values of the period polynomial.Author has NSF grant MCS-8101860     

Saturation theorems for generalized Bernstein polynomials

In the present paper, we give the explicit formula of the principal part of n ∑ k=0 ([k]q -[n]qx)sxk n-k-1 ∏ m=0 (1-qmx) with respect to [n]q for any integer s and q ∈ (0,1]. And, using the expressions, we obtain saturation theorems for Bn(f,qn;x) approximating to f(x) ∈ C[0,1], 0 < qn ≤ 1, qn → 1.     

Asymptotic formulae for generalized Freud polynomials

We establish the Mehler–Heine type formulae for orthonormal polynomials with respect to generalized Freud weights. Using this type of asymptotics, we can give estimates of the value at the origin of these polynomials and of all their derivatives as well as the asymptotic behavior of the corresponding zeros.     

Asymptotic expansions of generalized functions

The definition is formulated of the asymptotic expansion of a generalized function depending on a parameter. A number of theorems are proved about the properties of asymptotic expansions and operations on them, in particular, theorems on differentiation and integration. For generalized functions of the formf (x)e^ixt,f (x) S', t ± the relation is investigated between the singularity carrierf and the carrier of coefficient functionals.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 12, No. 2, pp. 131–138, August, 1972.     

Uniform asymptotic expansions of the Pollaczek polynomials

Two uniform asymptotic expansions are obtained for the Pollaczek polynomials P_n(cosθ;a,b). One is for , , in terms of elementary functions and in descending powers of . The other is for , in terms of a special function closely related to the modified parabolic cylinder functions, in descending powers of n. This interval contains a turning point and all possible zeros of P_n(cosθ) in θ(0,π/2].     

Multivariate generalized Bernstein polynomials: identities for orthogonal polynomials of two variables

We introduce polynomials $B^n_{k}(\boldmath{x};\omega|q)$ of total degree n, where $\boldmath{k} = (k_1,\ldots,k_d)\in\mathbb N_0^d, \; 0\le k_1+\ldots+k_d\le n$ , and $\boldmath{x}=(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_d)\in\mathbb R^d$ , depending on two parameters q and ω, which generalize the multivariate classical and discrete Bernstein polynomials. For ω=0, we obtain an extension of univariate q-Bernstein polynomials, introduced by Phillips (Ann Numer Math 4:511–518, 1997). Basic properties of the new polynomials are given, including recurrence relations, q-differentiation rules and de Casteljau algorithm. For the case d=2, connections between $B^n_{k}(\boldmath{x};\omega|q)$ and bivariate orthogonal big q-Jacobi polynomials—introduced recently by the first two authors—are given, with the connection coefficients being expressed in terms of bivariate q-Hahn polynomials. As limiting forms of these relations, we give connections between bivariate q-Bernstein and Dunkl’s (little) q-Jacobi polynomials (SIAM J Algebr Discrete Methods 1:137–151, 1980), as well as between bivariate discrete Bernstein and Hahn polynomials.     

Realization and GCD-existence theorem for generalized polynomials

It is shown, that in the ring F _ℚ[I] of generalized polynomials with several indeterminates from the set I over the field F and with rational exponents, each two elements have a greatest common divisor. On the other hand, this ring is Bezout only if I = O/ or I is a singleton.     

A universality theorem for ratios of random characteristic polynomials

We consider asymptotics of ratios of random characteristic polynomials associated with orthogonal polynomial ensembles. Under some natural conditions on the measure in the definition of the orthogonal polynomial ensemble we establish a universality limit for these ratios.
