Riemann-Hilbert analysis for Jacobi polynomials orthogonal on a single contour
英文摘要：
Classical Jacobi polynomials $P_{n}^{(α,β)}$, with $α, β>-1$, have a number of well-known properties, in particular the location of their zeros in the open interval $(-1,1)$. This property is no longer valid for other values of the parameters; in general, zeros are complex. In this paper we study the strong asymptotics of Jacobi polynomials where the real parameters $α_n,β_n$ depend on $n$ in such a way that $$ \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{α_{n}}{n}=A, \quad \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{β_{n}}{n}=B, $$ with $A,B \in \mathbb{R}$. We restrict our attention to the case where the limits $A,B$ are not both positive and take values outside of the triangle bounded by the straight lines A=0, B=0 and $A+B+2=0$. As a corollary, we show that in the limit the zeros distribute along certain curves that constitute trajectories of a quadratic differential. The non-hermitian orthogonality relations for Jacobi polynomials with varying parameters lie in the core of our approach; in the cases we consider, these relations hold on a single contour of the complex plane. The asymptotic analysis is performed using the Deift-Zhou steepest descent method based on the Riemann-Hilbert reformulation of Jacobi polynomials.
