Weighted sums of orthogonal polynomials with positive zeros
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the two sequences of polynomials which arise as denominators of the approximants of even and odd order, respectively, of a Stieltjes fraction, and which may be defined alternatively as a sequence of orthogonal polynomials with positive zeros and the associated sequence of kernel polynomials. Motivated by problems in the setting of birth-death processes, where these sequences play a major role, we focus on the asymptotic behaviour of the sequences and establish convergence of certain weighted sums of the polynomials at hand.

We consider the problem of computing all the zeros of an analytic function that lie in the interior of a Jordan curve, together with their respective multiplicities. Our approach uses modiied moments based on formal orthogonal polynomials. Numerical experiments indicate that it is far superior to classical approaches, which consider the usually ill-conditioned map from the Newton sums to the un...
متن کاملWeighted Sums of Orthogonal Polynomials Related to Birth-Death Processes with Killing
We consider sequences of orthogonal polynomials arising in the analysis of birth-death processes with killing. Motivated by problems in this stochastic setting we discuss criteria for convergence of certain weighted sums of the polynomials. AMS Subject Classifications: 42C05, 60J80.
متن کاملThe Distribution of Zeros of Asymptotically Extremal Polynomials
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the zeros of a sequence of polynomials whose weighted norms have the same n th root behavior as the weighted norms for certain cxtrcmal polynomials. Our results include as special cases several of the previous results of ErdGs, Freud, Jentzsch, Szego and Blatt, Saff, and Simkani. Applications are given concerning the zeros of orthogonal polynom...
متن کاملSobolev Spaces with Respect to Measures in Curves and Zeros of Sobolev Orthogonal Polynomials
In this paper we obtain some practical criteria to bound the multiplication operator in Sobolev spaces with respect to measures in curves. As a consequence of these results, we characterize the weighted Sobolev spaces with bounded multiplication operator, for a large class of weights. To have bounded multiplication operator has important consequences in Approximation Theory: it implies the unif...
متن کاملOn Sums of Powers of Zeros of Polynomials
Due to Girard’s (sometimes called Waring’s) formula the sum of the r−th power of the zeros of every one variable polynomial of degree N , PN (x), can be given explicitly in terms of the coefficients of the monic P̃N (x) polynomial. This formula is closely related to a known N − 1 variable generalization of Chebyshev’s polynomials of the first kind, T (N−1) r . The generating function of these po...
