Review text

A remarkable inequality with utterly explicit constants established by Erdélyi, Magnus and Nevai states that for \(\alpha\geq \beta> -{1\over 2}\) the orthonormal Jacobi polynomials \(P^{(\alpha,\beta)}_k\) satisfy \[ M(P^{(\alpha,\beta)}_k, \sqrt{1- x^2})= \max_{|x|\leq 1} \{(1- x)^{\alpha+{1\over 2}}(1+ x)^{\beta+{1\over 2}}(P^{(\alpha,\beta)}_k(x))^2\}= O(\alpha). \] They conjectured that the real order of the maximum is \(O(2^{1/2})\). In this paper the author uses a method suggested in another paper of himself and proves a new boundedness of \(M(P^{(\alpha,\beta)}_k,\sqrt{1- x^2})\) depending of the degree \(k\) which improves their result by a factor of order \(({1\over 2}+{1\over k})^{-1/3}\). Also confirm the conjecture in some limiting cases.
