Let \(P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}\) be the Jacobi polynomials, and \[ g_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)=c_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(1-x)^{\alpha/2}(1+x)^{\beta/2}P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x), \] where \(c_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}\) is an explicitly given normalizing coefficient, which is chosen such that \[ \frac{1}{2}\int_{-1}^1g_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)^2dx=\frac{1}{2n+\alpha+\beta+1}. \] Main result: There exists a constant \(C>0\) such that \[ |(1-x^2)^{1/4}g_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)|\leq C (2n+\alpha+\beta +1)^{-1/4} \] for all \(x\in[-1,1],\) all \(\alpha,\beta\geq 0,\) and all nonnegative integers \(n\). From the abstract: ``It provides uniform bounds on a complete set of matrix coefficients for the irreducible representations of \(\mathrm{SU}(2)\) with a decay of \(d^{-1/4}\) in the dimension \(d\) of the representation. Moreover, it complements previous results of Krasikov on a conjecture of Erdélyi, Magnus, and Nevai.''
