On the L₂ Markov inequality with Laguerre weight

Abstract: Let

w_{a l p h a} (t) = t^{a l p h a}, e^{- t}

,

a l p h a > - 1

, be the Laguerre weight function, and

| c d o t |_{w_{a} l p h a}

denote the associated

L_{2}

-norm, i.e.,

| f|_{w_alpha}:=Big(int_{0}^{infty}w_{alpha}(t)| f(t)|^2,dtBig)^{1/2}.

Denote by

{c a l P}_{n}

the set of algebraic polynomials of degree not exceeding

n

. We study the best constant

c_{n} (a l p h a)

in the Markov inequality in this norm,

| p^{prime}|_{w_alpha}leq c_n(alpha),| p|_{w_alpha},,quad pin {cal P}_n,,

namely the constant

c_{n}(alpha)=sup_{mathop{}^{pin {cal P}_n}_{p e 0}}frac{| p^{prime}|_{w_alpha}}{| p|_{w_alpha}},,

and we are also interested in its asymptotic value

c(alpha)=lim_{n ightarrowinfty}frac{c_{n}(alpha)}{n},.

In this paper we obtain lower and upper bounds for both

c_{n} (a l p h a)

and

c (a l p h a)

. % Note that according to a result of P. D"{o}rfler from 2002,

c (a l p h a) = [j_{(a l p h a - 1) / 2, 1}]^{- 1}

, with

j_{u, 1}

being the first positive zero of the Bessel function

J_{u} (z)

, hence our bounds for

c (a l p h a)

imply bounds for

j_{(a l p h a - 1) / 2, 1}

as well.
