AbstractMethods from the theory of orthogonal polynomials are extended to L-polynomials . By this means the authors and W. B. Jones (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 98 (1984), 528–554) solved the strong Hamburger moment problem, that is, given a double sequence , to find a distribution function ψ(t), non-decreasing, with an infinitenumber of points of increase and bounded on −∞ < t < ∞, such that for all integers . In this article further menthods such as analogues of the Lioville-Ostrogradski formula and of the Christoffel-Darboux formula are developed to investigated When the moment porblem has a unique solution. This will be the case if and only if a sequence of nested disks associated with the sequence has only a point as its intersection (the so called limit point case).

In his classic memoir on the moment problem that bears his name, Stieltjes [2] exhibited1as an example of an indeterminate (Stieltjes) moment sequence.Stieltjes also obtained the corresponding S-fraction and thus implicitly obtained the three-term recurrence formula satisfied by the corresponding orthogonal polynomials.

The present work deals with optimization in kinematics, generalizing previous results of the author. A second theme is maximizing the constrained gain linear function and minimizing the constrained cost function. Elementary notions of optimal control are considered as well. Finally, polynomial approximation results on unbounded subsets in several variables are applied to the moment problem. The existence of the solution of a two dimensional moment problem is characterized in terms of quadratic forms.

We study the moment problem associated with the Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials in some detail providing raising (creation) and lowering (annihilation) operators, Rodrigues formula, and a second-order operator equation involving the Askey–Wilson operator. A new infinite family of weight functions is also given. Sufficient conditions for functions to be weight functions for the [Formula: see text]-Hermite, [Formula: see text]-Laguerre and Stieltjes–Wigert polynomials are established and used to give new infinite families of absolutely continuous orthogonality measures for each of these polynomials.
