چکیده
Ratio asymptotics for matrix orthogonal polynomials with recurrence coefficients An and Bn having limits A and B respectively (the matrix Nevai class) were obtained by Durán. In the present paper we obtain an alternative description of the limiting ratio. We generalize it to recurrence coefficients which are asymptotically periodic with higher periodicity, or which are slowly varying in function of a parameter. Under such assumptions, we also find the limiting zero distribution of the matrix orthogonal polynomials, generalizing results by Durán-López-Saff and Dette-Reuther to the non-Hermitian case. Our proofs are based on ‘normal family’ arguments and on the solution to a quadratic eigenvalue problem. As an application of our results we obtain new explicit formulas for the spectral measures of the matrix Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind, and we derive the asymptotic eigenvalue distribution for a class of random band matrices generalizing the tridiagonal matrices introduced by Dumitriu-Edelman.

Zeros and logarithmic asymptotics of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials for exponential weights
We obtain the (contracted) weak zero asymptotics for orthogonal polynomials with respect to Sobolev inner products with exponential weights in the real semiaxis, of the form xγe−φ(x), with γ > 0, which include as particular cases the counterparts of the so-called Freud (i.e., when φ has a polynomial growth at infinity) and Erdös (when φ grows faster than any polynomial at infinity) weights. In ...

متن کاملApplications of universality limits to zeros and reproducing kernels of orthogonal polynomials
We apply universality limits to asymptotics of spacing of zeros fxkng of orthogonal polynomials, for weights with compact support and for exponential weights. A typical result is lim n!1 xkn xk+1;n ~ Kn (xkn; xkn) = 1 under minimal hypotheses on the weight, with ~ Kn denoting a normalized reproducing kernel. Moreover, for exponential weights, we derive asymptotics for the di¤erentiated kernels ...
متن کاملFine Structure of the Zeros of Orthogonal Polynomials, Iii. Periodic Recursion Coefficients
We discuss asymptotics of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the real line and on the unit circle when the recursion coefficients are periodic. The zeros on or near the absolutely continuous spectrum have a clock structure with spacings inverse to the density of zeros. Zeros away from the a.c. spectrum have limit points mod p and only finitely many of them.
