An update on orthogonal polynomials and weighted approximation on the real line (Q1327433)

The paper is an update of an earlier survey [the author, Acta Appl. Math. 10, 237-296 (1987; Zbl 0696.42016)]. The present survey concentrates on polynomials on \((-\infty, \infty)\) with special emphasis on analytic aspects, such as asymptotics and bounds on orthogonal polynomials, their zeros and their recurrence coefficients. Besides of reviewing the development in the theory during the last 8 to 10 years also applications to mean convergence of orthogonal expansions, Lagrange interpolation, Jackson-Bernstein theorems, and weighted incomplete polynomial approximation are discussed.
