AbstractWe give some structural formulas for the family of matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials of size $$2\times 2$$ 2 × 2 introduced by C. Calderón et al. in an earlier work, which are common eigenfunctions of a differential operator of hypergeometric type. Specifically, we give a Rodrigues formula that allows us to write this family of polynomials explicitly in terms of the classical Jacobi polynomials, and write, for the sequence of orthonormal polynomials, the three-term recurrence relation and the Christoffel–Darboux identity. We obtain a Pearson equation, which enables us to prove that the sequence of derivatives of the orthogonal polynomials is also orthogonal, and to compute a Rodrigues formula for these polynomials as well as a matrix-valued differential operator having these polynomials as eigenfunctions. We also describe the second-order differential operators of the algebra associated with the weight matrix.

Via a generalization of the pseudospectral method for numerical solution of differential equations, a family of nonlinear algebraic identities satisfied by the zeros of a wide class of orthogonal polynomials is derived. The generalization is based on a modification of pseudospectral matrix representations of linear differential operators proposed in the paper, which allows these representations to depend on two, rather than one, sets of interpolation nodes. The identities hold for every polynomial family pνxν=0∞ orthogonal with respect to a measure supported on the real line that satisfies some standard assumptions, as long as the polynomials in the family satisfy differential equations Apν(x)=qν(x)pν(x), where A is a linear differential operator and each qν(x) is a polynomial of degree at most n0∈N; n0 does not depend on ν. The proposed identities generalize known identities for classical and Krall orthogonal polynomials, to the case of the nonclassical orthogonal polynomials that belong to the class described above. The generalized pseudospectral representations of the differential operator A for the case of the Sonin-Markov orthogonal polynomials, also known as generalized Hermite polynomials, are presented. The general result is illustrated by new algebraic relations satisfied by the zeros of the Sonin-Markov polynomials.

We extend to a situation involving matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials a scalar result that plays an important role in Random Matrix Theory and a few other areas of mathe-matics and signal processing. We consider a case of matrix-valued Jacobi polynomials which arises from the study of representations of [Formula: see text], a group that plays an important role in Random Matrix Theory. We show that in this case an algebraic miracle, namely the existence of a differential operator that commutes with a naturally arising integral one, extends to this matrix-valued situation.

SynopsisWe consider the eigenfunction expansions associated with a symmetric differential operator M[·] of order 2n with coefficients defined on an open interval (a, b). Each singular endpoint of (a, b) is assumed to be of limit-n type. A direct convergence theory is established for the eigenfunction series expansion of a function y in a set Termwise differentiation of the series is established for the derivatives of order up to n. For O ≤ i ≤ n − 1, the i-fold differentiated series converges absolutely and uniformly to y(i) on compact intervals; the n−fold differentiated series converges to yn in the mean. The expansion theory is valid also when an essential spectrum is present. An explicit formula is given for the calculation of the spectral matrix.

In this paper we address the classical question going back to S. Bochner and H. L. Krall to describe all systems $\{p_{n}(x)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ of orthogonal polynomials (OPS) which are the eigenfunctions of some finite order differential operator. Such systems of orthogonal polynomials are called Bochner-Krall OPS (or BKS for short) and their spectral differential operators are accordingly called Bochner-Krall operators (or BK-operators for short). We show that the leading coefficient of a Nevai type BK-operator is of the form $((x - a)(x-b))^{N/2}$. This settles the special case of the general conjecture 7.3. of [4] describing the leading terms of all BK-operators.

An important problem in complex analysis is to determine properties of the image of an analytic function p defined on the unit disc U from an inclusion or containment relation involving several of the derivatives of p. Results dealing with differential inclusions have led to the development of the field of Differential Subordinations, while results dealing with differential containments have led to the development of the field of Differential Superordinations. In this article, the authors consider a mixed problem consisting of special differential inclusions implying a corresponding containment of the form D[p](U)⊂Ω⇒Δ⊂p(U), where Ω and Δ are sets in C, and D is a differential operator such that D[p] is an analytic function defined on U. We carry out this research by considering the more general case involving a system of two simultaneous differential operators in two unknown functions.

SynopsisWirtinger-type inequalities of order n are inequalities between quadratic forms involving derivatives of order k ≦ n of admissible functions in an interval (a, b). Several methods for establishing these inequalities are investigated, leading to improvements of classical results as well as systematic generation of new ones. A Wirtinger inequality for Hamiltonian systems is obtained in which standard regularity hypotheses are weakened and singular intervals are permitted, and this is employed to generalize standard inequalities for linear differential operators of even order. In particular second order inequalities of Beesack's type are developed, in which the admissible functions satisfy only the null boundary conditions at the endpoints of [a, b] and b does not exceed the first systems conjugate point (a) of a. Another approach is presented involving the standard minimization theory of quadratic forms and the theory of “natural boundary conditions”. Finally, inequalities of order n + k are described in terms of (n, n)-disconjugacy of associated 2nth order differential operators.

SynopsisFormulas are determined for the deficiency numbers of a formally symmetric ordinary differential operator with complex coefficients which have asymptotic expansions of a prescribed type on a half-axis. An implication of these formulas is that for any given positive integer there exists a formally symmetric ordinary differential operator whose deficiency numbers differ by that positive integer.

This paper is concerned with deriving some new formulae expressing explicitly the high-order derivatives of Jacobi polynomials whose parameters difference is one or two of any degree and of any order in terms of their corresponding Jacobi polynomials. The derivatives formulae for Chebyshev polynomials of third and fourth kinds of any degree and of any order in terms of their corresponding Chebyshev polynomials are deduced as special cases. Some new reduction formulae for summing some terminating hypergeometric functions of unit argument are also deduced. As an application, and with the aid of the new introduced derivatives formulae, an algorithm for solving special sixth-order boundary value problems are implemented with the aid of applying Galerkin method. A numerical example is presented hoping to ascertain the validity and the applicability of the proposed algorithms.
