Asymptotic root distribution of Charlier polynomials with large negative parameter

Uniform Asymptotic Expansions for Charlier Polynomials

The asymptotic behaviour of the Charlier polynomials C (a) n (x) as nQ. is examined. These polynomials satisfy a discrete orthogonality relation and, unlike classical orthogonal polynomials, do not satisfy a second-order linear differential equation with respect to the independent variable x. As such, previous results on their asymptotic behaviour have been restricted to integral methods and co...

Convergent Asymptotic Expansions of Charlier, Laguerre and Jacobi Polynomials

Convergent expansions are derived for three types of orthogonal polynomials: Charlier, Laguerre and Jacobi. The expansions have asymptotic properties for large values of the degree. The expansions are given in terms of functions that are special cases of the given polynomials. The method is based on expanding integrals in one or two points of the complex plane, these points being saddle points ...

Asymptotic zero distribution of biorthogonal polynomials

Let ψ : [0, 1] → R be a strictly increasing continuous function. Let Pn be a polynomial of degree n determined by the biorthogonality conditions ∫ 1 0 Pn (x)ψ (x) j dx = 0, j = 0, 1, . . . , n− 1. We study the distribution of zeros of Pn as n → ∞, and related potential theory.

Bounds for Zeros of the Charlier Polynomials

We use the method of positive quadratic forms and discrete analogues of the Laguerre inequality recently obtained by the author, to give bounds on the zeros of the Charlier polynomials, which are uniform in all parameters involved.
