The zeros of certain different sequences of orthogonal polynomials interlace in a well-defined way. The study of this phenomenon and the conditions under which it holds lead to a set of points that can be applied as bounds for the extreme zeros of the polynomials. We consider different sequences of the discrete orthogonal Meixner and Kravchuk polynomials and use mixed three term recurrence rela...

‎let $g_{i} $ be a subgroup of $ s_{m_{i}}‎ ,‎ 1 leq i leq k$‎. ‎suppose $chi_{i}$ is an irreducible complex character of $g_{i}$‎. ‎we consider $ g_{1}times cdots times g_{k} $ as subgroup of $ s_{m} $‎, ‎where $ m=m_{1}+cdots‎ +‎m_{k} $‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we give a formula for the dimension of $h_{d}(g_{1}times cdots times g_{k}‎, ‎chi_{1}timescdots times chi_{k})$ and investigate the existe...

A system of multivariate orthogonal polynomials satisfies a matrix equation which plays the role of a three-term relation of the orthogonal polynomial of one variable. However, unlike the case of one variable, there does not exist a second solution of this matrix equation that is linearly independent to the orthogonal polynomials. In particular, there is no analogy of the associated polynomials...

Bleher and Kuijlaars recently showed that the eigenvalue correlations from matrix ensembles with external source can be expressed by means of a kernel built out of special multiple orthogonal polynomials. We derive a Christoffel-Darboux formula for this kernel for general multiple orthogonal polynomials. In addition, we show that the formula can be written in terms of the solution of the Rieman...

We reconsider some families of orthogonal polynomials, within the framework of the so called monomiality principle. We show that the associated operational formalism allows the framing of the polynomial orthogonality using an algebraic point of view. Within such a framework, we introduce families of pseudo-orthogonal polynomials, namely polynomials, not orthogonal under the ordinary definition,...

We consider determinants of Wronskian type whose entries are multiple orthogonal polynomials associated with a path connecting two multi-indices. By assuming that the weight functions form an algebraic Chebyshev (AT) system, we show that the polynomials represented by the Wronskians keep a constant sign in some cases, while in some other cases oscillatory behavior appears, which generalizes cla...

We study constant coefficient four term recurrences for polynomials, in analogy to the three-term recurrences that are associated with orthogonal polynomials. We show that for a family of polynomials obeying such a four-term recurrence, the coefficient array is an ordinary Riordan array of a special type, and vice versa. In certain cases, it is possible to transform these polynomials into relat...
