Saturation of the Shepard operators

We discuss the Shepard operators S_n (f; x) in this paper and establish the saturation of the sequence {S_n f} _n-1 ^∞ , as well as investigate some related questions. The research of this author was supported in part by the Hungarian Science Foundation for Research, Grant. N ^o . 1157.     

Chebyshev polynomials on a system of curves

This paper is devoted to the problem of how close can one get with the n-th Chebyshev numbers of a compact set ?? to the theoretical lower bound cap(??) ⁿ . It is shown that for a system of m ?? 2 analytic curves, there is always a subsequence for which the Chebyshev numbers are at least (1 + ??)cap(??) ⁿ , while for another subsequence they are at most (1 + O(n ^?1/(m?1)))cap(??) ⁿ . It is also shown that the last estimate is optimal. We also discuss how well a system of curves can be approximated by lemniscates in Hausdorff metric. The proofs are based on potential theoretical arguments. Simultaneous Diophantine approximation of harmonic measures lies in the background. To achieve the correct rate, a perturbation of the multi-valued complex Green??s function is introduced which makes the n-th power of its exponential single-valued and which allows the construction of Faber-like polynomials on multiply connected domains.

Asymptotics for Christoffel functions for general measures on the real line

We consider asymptotics of Christoffel functions for measures ν with compact support on the real line. It is shown that under some natural conditionsn times thenth Christoffel function has a limit asn→∞ almost everywhere on the support, and the limit is the Radon-Nikodym derivative of ν with respect to the equilibrium measure of the support of ν. The case in which the support is an interval was settled previously by A. Máté, P. Nevai and the author. The present paper solves the general problem.

Extensions of Szegö's theory of orthogonal polynomials,II

Let {? _n (dμ)} be a system of orthonormal polynomials on the unit circle with respect to a measuredμ. Szegö's theory is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of? _n (dμ) when logμ'∈L ¹. In what follows we will discuss the asymptotic behavior of the ratio φ_n(dμ ₁)/φ_n(dμ ₂) off the unit circle in casedμ ₁ anddμ ₂ are close in a sense (e.g.,dμ ₂=g dμ ₁ whereg≥0 is such thatQ(e ^it )g(t) andQ(e ^it )/g(t) are bounded for a suitable polynomialQ) and μ ₁ ^′ >0 almost everywhere or (a somewhat weaker requirement) lim _n→∞Φ _n (dμ ₁,0)=0, for the monic polynomials Φ _n . The consequences for orthogonal polynomials on the real line are also discussed.     

Sharpening of Hilbert’s lemniscate theorem
