Zeros of polynomials orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle

Abstract

In this paper we study polynomials $(P_n)$ which are hermitian orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle with respect to weight functions which have square root singularities at the end points of the arcs, an arbitrary nonvanishing trigonometric polynomial $\mathcal{A}$ in the denominator and possible point measures at the zeros of $\mathcal{A}$. First we give an explicit representation of the orthogonal polynomials $P_n$ in terms of elliptic functions. With the help of this representation for sufficiently large $n$ the number of zeros of $P_n$ which are in an $ε$-neighbourhood of each of the arcs are determined. Finally it is shown that the accumulation points of the zeros of $(P_n)$ which are not attracted to the support lie on a Jordan arc running within the unit disk from one of the arcs to the other one. The accumulation points lie dense on the Jordan arc if the harmonic measures of the arcs are irrational. If the harmonic measures are rational then there is only a finite set of accumulation points on the Jordan arc.

Regular specular differentiation in Euclidean spaces

We study the regular specular derivative, a generalized derivative defined at every point where both one-sided derivatives exist and are finite. Geometrically, it is the slope of the mirror that reflects the left tangent ray into the right one. In one variable we derive computational formulas, prove inverse function and rotation rules, establish Quasi-Rolle's Theorem and the Quasi-Mean Value Theorem, and obtain a derivative-limit theorem, which shows that twice regularly specularly differentiable functions are continuously differentiable. We also prove both parts of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. In several variables we introduce specular gradients, directional derivatives, tangent hyperplanes, and normal vectors, show that a continuous specular gradient forces classical differentiability, and characterize when the specular tangent hyperplane is unique.

Prevalent smoothness in inhomogeneous Besov spaces

In this article, we prove that, under some assumptions on the so-called environment, prevalent functions in inhomogeneous Besov spaces recently introduced by Barral-Seuret in 2023 are multifractal, with a singularity spectrum that we determine. This completes the previous Baire generic results already obtained.

Lebesgue Covering Theorem and level sets of continuous functions

We formulate and prove a dimension-theoretic generalization of a version of the Lebesgue Covering Theorem. A generalized $n$-dimensional version of the Steinhaus Chessboard Theorem, recently proved algorithmically by Turzański and Ziajor, is a particular case of this result. Moreover, we study two types of sets associated with a continuous function $g \colon [0,1]^n \to \mathbb{R}$. Namely, the set of all points $p \in \mathbb{R}$ such that the fiber $g^{-1}[\left\{p\right\}]$ connects $i$th opposite faces of $[0,1]^n$, and the set of all points $p \in \mathbb{R}$ such that the fiber $g^{-1}[\left\{p\right\}]$ separates $i$th opposite faces of $[0, 1]^n$.
