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.

Group-free radial Kunze-Stein phenomenon on affine buildings

We give a geometric proof of the radial Kunze--Stein phenomenon on the good vertices of a thick, locally finite, regular affine building of irreducible type. The proof uses a positive spherical function, its joint eigenvalues for sphere averages, and the growth of vector-distance spheres. Conjugation by this function and complex interpolation yield a weighted $\ell^2$ estimate and the boundedness of radial operators with $\ell^p$ kernels for $1\leq p<2$. We also present proofs by the averaging operators norms, by the Schur test and by Helgason transform. A further interpolation gives weighted mixed-exponent estimates. No transitivity assumption on the automorphism group is required; in particular the argument applies to buildings of type $\widetilde A_2$ without a Bruhat--Tits realization.

Borel Summability for Nonlinear Differential Systems on Characteristic Domains

We investigate singularly perturbed nonlinear complex differential systems of the form $\hbar \partial_x f = F (x, \hbar, f)$, where $\hbar$ is a small complex perturbation parameter. We give geometric and analytic conditions under which the formal perturbative solution associated with a fixed regular leading-order branch is locally uniformly Borel summable. This leads to an existence and uniqueness theorem of holomorphic solutions with prescribed perturbative expansion. We give an explicit triangular example and a self-contained application to the singularly perturbed Painlevé I equation.

Necessary and sufficient conditions for universality limits

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for universality limits for orthogonal polynomials associated to a fixed measure on the real line and related systems. One of our results is that the Christoffel--Darboux kernel has sine kernel asymptotics at a point $ξ$, with regularly varying scaling, if and only if the orthogonality measure (spectral measure) has a unique tangent measure at $ξ$ and that tangent measure is the Lebesgue measure. All previously known cases of sine kernel asymptotics, with absolutely continuous or singular measures, have regularly varying scaling. Our work is not limited to bulk universality; we show that the Christoffel--Darboux kernel has a regularly varying scaling limit with a nontrivial limit kernel if and only if the orthogonality measure has a unique tangent measure at $ξ$ and that tangent measure is not a point mass. The possible limit kernels correspond to homogeneous de Branges spaces; in particular, this equivalence completely characterizes several prominent universality classes such as hard edge universality, Fisher--Hartwig singularities, and jump discontinuities in the weights. A key ingredient in the proof is a new correspondence between measures and chains of de Branges spaces, not between Weyl functions and Hamiltonians. In order to handle limits with power law weights, this correspondence goes beyond the more common setting of Poisson-finite measures, and allows arbitrary power bounded measures.
