Orthogonal Polynomials

The theory of orthogonal polynomials plays an important role in many branches of mathematics, such as approximation theory (best approximation, interpolation, quadrature), special functions, continued fractions, differential and integral equations. The notion of orthogonality originated from the theory of continued fractions, but later became an independent (and possibly more important) discipl...

Orthogonal Polynomials

In this survey, different aspects of the theory of orthogonal polynomials of one (real or complex) variable are reviewed. Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are not discussed.

Orthogonal Polynomials with Orthogonal Derivatives

Symmetric Orthogonal Polynomials and the Associated Orthogonal L-polynomials

We show how symmetric orthogonal polynomials can be linked to polynomials associated with certain orthogonal L-polynomials. We provide some examples to illustrate the results obtained. Finally as an application, we derive information regarding the orthogonal polynomials associated with the weight function (1 + kx2)(l x2)~1/2, k>0.
