In this work, orthogonal polynomials satisfying $R_I$ type recurrence relation %$\mathcal{P}_{n+1}(z) = (z-c_n)\mathcal{P}_n(z)-λ_n (z-a_n)\mathcal{P}_{n-1}(z),$ with $\mathcal{P}_{-1}(z) = 0$ and $\mathcal{P}_0(z) = 1$ are analyzed when the recurrence coefficients are modified. The structural relationship between the perturbed and the unperturbed polynomials along with the spectral properties and spectral transformation of continued fraction are investigated. It is demonstrated that the transfer matrix method is computationally more efficient than the classical method for obtaining perturbed $R_I$ polynomials. Further, an interesting consequence of co-dilation on the Carathéodary function is presented. Finally, the study of co-recursion and co-dilation in connection to the unit circle is carried out with the help of an illustration. The interlacing and monotonicity of zeros between L-Jacobi polynomials and their perturbed forms are demonstrated.
In this manuscript, new algebraic and analytic aspects of the orthogonal polynomials satisfying $R_{II}$ type recurrence relation given by \begin{align*} \mathcal{P}_{n+1}(x) = (x-c_n)\mathcal{P}_n(x)-λ_n (x-a_n)(x-b_n)\mathcal{P}_{n-1}(x), \quad n \geq 0, \end{align*} where $λ_n$ is a positive chain sequence and $a_n$, $b_n$, $c_n$ are sequences of real or complex numbers with $\mathcal{P}_{-1}(x) = 0$ and $\mathcal{P}_0(x) = 1$ are investigated when the recurrence coefficients are perturbed. Specifically, representation of new perturbed polynomials (co-polynomials of $R_{II}$ type) in terms …
The differential transformation method (DTM) enables the easy construction of a power-series solution to a nonlinear differential equation. The exponentiation operation has not been specifically addressed in the DTM literature, and constructing it iteratively is suboptimal. The recurrence for exponentiating a power series by J.C.P. Miller provides a concise implementation of exponentiation by a positive integer for DTM. An equally-concise implementation of the exponential function is also provided.
By using the Szegő's transformation we deduce new relations between the recurrence coefficients for orthogonal polynomials on the real line and the Verblunsky parameters of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. Moreover, we study the relation between the corresponding $\mathcal{S}$-functions and $\mathcal{C}$-functions
New bispectral polynomials orthogonal on a quadratic bi-lattice are obtained from a truncation of Wilson polynomials. Recurrence relation and difference equation are provided. The recurrence coefficients can be encoded in a perturbed persymmetric Jacobi matrix. The orthogonality relation and an explicit expression in terms of hypergeometric functions are also given. Special cases and connections with the para-Krawtchouk polynomials and the dual-Hahn polynomials are also discussed.
We look at some extensions of the Stieltjes-Wigert weight functions. First we replace the variable x by x^2 in a family of weight functions given by Askey in 1989 and we show that the recurrence coefficients of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials can be expressed in terms of a solution of the q-discrete Painlevé III equation. Next we consider the q-Laguerre or generalized Stieltjes-Wigert weight functions with a quadratic transformation and derive recursive equations for the recurrence coefficients of the orthogonal polynomials. These turn out to be related to the q-discrete Painlevé V eq…
In this paper, monic polynomials orthogonal with deformation of the Freud-type weight function are considered. These polynomials fullfill linear differential equation with some polynomial coefficients in their holonomic form. The aim of this work is explore certain characterizing properties of perturbed Freud type polynomials such as nonlinear recursion relations, finite moments, differential-recurrence and differential relations satisfied by the recurrence coefficients as well as the corresponding semiclassical orthogonal polynomials. We note that the obtained differential equation fulfilled …
We show that the coefficients of the three-term recurrence relation for orthogonal polynomials with respect to a semi-classical extension of the Laguerre weight satisfy the fourth Painlevé equation when viewed as functions of one of the parameters in the weight. We compare different approaches to derive this result, namely, the ladder operators approach, the isomonodromy deformations approach and combining the Toda system for the recurrence coefficients with a discrete equation. We also discuss a relation between the recurrence coefficients for the Freud weight and the semi-classical Laguerre …
We consider the theoretical and numerical aspects of the quadrature rules associated with a sequence of polynomials generated by a special $R_{II}$ recurrence relation. We also look into some methods for generating the nodes (which lie on the real line) and the positive weights of these quadrature rules. With a simple transformation these quadrature rules on the real line also lead to certain positive quadrature rules of highest algebraic degree of precision on the unit circle. This way, we also introduce new approaches to evaluate the nodes and weights of these specific quadrature rules on th…
The Darboux transformations of Krawtchouk polynomials are investigated and all possible exceptional Krawtchouk polynomials obtainable from a single-step Darboux transformation are considered. The properties of these exceptional Krawtchouk polynomials including the Diophantine ones and the recurrence relations are obtained.
In recent years, chain sequences and their perturbations have played a significant role in characterising the orthogonal polynomials both on the real line as well as on the unit circle. In this note, a particular disturbance of the chain sequence related to orthogonal polynomials having their true interval of orthogonality as a subset of $[0,\infty)$ is studied leading to an important consequence related to the kernel polynomials. Such perturbations are shown to be related to transformations of symmetric measures. An illustration using the generalized Laguerre polynomials is also provided.
We examine a special linear combination of balanced very-well-poised $\tphia$ basic hypergeometric series that is known to satisfy a transformation. We call this $Φ$ and show that it satisfies certain three-term contiguous relations. From two sets of contiguous relations for $Φ$ we obtain fifty-six pairwise linearly independent solutions to a three-term recurrence that generalizes the recurrence for Askey-Wilson polynomials. The associated continued fraction is evaluated using Pincherle's theorem. From this continued fraction we are able to derive a discrete system of biorthogonal rational fun…
Let $\un,$ be a quasi-definite linear functional defined on the space of polynomials $\mathbb{P}.$ For such a functional we can define a sequence of monic orthogonal polynomials (SMOP in short) $(P_n)_{n\geq 0},$ which satisfies a three term recurrence relation. Shifting one unity the recurrence coefficient indices given the sequence of associated polynomials of the first kind which are orthogonal with respect to a linear functional denoted by $\un^{(1)}$. In the literature two special transformations of the functional $\un$ are studied, the canonical Christoffel transformation $\widetilde \un…
We present an asymmetric $q$-Painlevé equation. We will derive this using $q$-orthogonal polynomials with respect to generalized Freud weights: their recurrence coefficients will obey this $q$-Painlevé equation (up to a simple transformation). We will show a stable method of computing a special solution which gives the recurrence coefficients. We establish a connection with $α-q-P_V$.
It is well known that Sobolev-type orthogonal polynomials with respect to measures supported on the real line satisfy higher-order recurrence relations and these can be expressed as a (2N+1)-banded symmetric semi-infinite matrix. In this paper we state the connection between these (2N+1)-banded matrices and the Jacobi matrices associated with the three-term recurrence relation satisfied by the standard sequence of orthonormal polynomials with respect to the 2-iterated Christoffel transformation of the measure.
We investigate new generalizations of the Meixner polynomials on the lattice $\mathbb{N}$, on the shifted lattice $\mathbb{N}+1-β$ and on the bi-lattice $\mathbb{N}\cup (\mathbb{N}+1-β)$. We show that the coefficients of the three-term recurrence relation for the orthogonal polynomials are related to the solutions of the fifth Painlevé equation P$_{\textup V}$. Initial conditions for different lattices can be transformed to the classical solutions of P$_{\textup V}$ with special values of the parameters. We also study one property of the Bäcklund transformation of P$_{\textup V}$.
