Estimates of the orthogonal polynomials with weight \(\exp (-x^ m)\), m an even positive integer (Q1089480)

This note announces an inequality for the polynomials of the title, indeed \[ p_ n(x)^ 2\leq A \exp (x^ m)/(x^ 2_{\ln}-x^ 2)^{1/2} \] when \(| x| \leq x_{\ln}\). Here \(x_{\ln}\) is the largest zero of the degree n orthogonal polynomial \(p_ n\), and A is a constant independent of n. The proof depends on the behavior of a differential equation associated with \(p_ n\).
