Orthogonal polynomials on several intervals: accumulation points of recurrence coefficients and of zeros

Abstract: Let

E = c u p_{j = 1}^{l} [a_{2 j - 1}, a_{2 j}],

a_{1} < a_{2} < ... < a_{2 l},

l g e q 2

and set

omega

, where

o m e g a_{j} (i n f t y)

is the harmonic measure of

[a_{2 j - 1}, a_{2 j}]

at infinity. Let

m u

be a measure which is on

E

absolutely continuous and satisfies SzegH{o}'s-condition and has at most a finite number of point measures outside

E

, and denote by

(P_{n})

and

({m a t h c a l Q}_{n})

the orthonormal polynomials and their associated Weyl solutions with respect to

d m u

, satisfying the recurrence relation

s q r t l a m b d a_{2 + n} y_{1 + n} = (x - a l p h a_{1 + n}) y_{n} - s q r t l a m b d a_{1 + n} y_{- 1 + n}

. We show that the recurrence coefficients have topologically the same convergence behavior as the sequence

omega

modulo 1; More precisely, putting

alpha

lambda

(a l p h a_{[f r a c l 1 2] + 1 + n}, ...,

a l p h a_{1 + n}, ...,

a l p h a_{- [f r a c l - 2 2] + 1 + n},

l a m b d a_{[f r a c l - 2 2] + 2 + n},

..., l a m b d a_{2 + n},

...,

l a m b d a_{- [f r a c l - 1 2] + 2 + n})

we prove that

alpha

lambda

converges if and only if

omega

converges modulo 1 and we give an explicit homeomorphism between the sets of accumulation points of

alpha

lambda

and

omega

modulo 1.
