Review text

Biorthogonal polynomials in continuous or discrete settings have been studied by many authors. In the present paper the authors deal with monic polynomials \(P_n\) of degree \(n\) determined by the biorthogonality relations \[ \int_0^\infty P_n(x)x^{\alpha}e^{-\sigma_{n,j}x}\,dx=0, \quad 1\leq j\leq n, \] where \(\alpha>-1\) and \(\{\sigma_{n,j}\}_{j=1}^n\) is an array of distinct positive numbers. They prove that \(P_n\) exists, is unique, has \(n\) simple positive zeros, and is given explicitly by the composition of the associated exponent polynomial \[ Q_n(x)=\prod_{j=1}^n (x+\sigma_{n,j}^{-1}) \] and the Laguerre polynomial \(L_n^{(\alpha)}\). The authors study the zero distribution of \(\{P_n\}\) and show that the zero counting measures \(\mu_n\) of \(\{P_n(-4nx)\}\) and the zero counting measures \(\nu_n\) of \(\{Q_n\}\) have weak limits simultaneously, and find the relation between the corresponding limits.
