Uniform Asymptotics of Orthogonal Polynomials Arising from Coherent States
In this paper, we study a family of orthogonal polynomials
arising from nonlinear coherent states in quantum optics. Based on the
three-term recurrence relation only, we obtain a uniform asymptotic expansion
of as the polynomial degree tends to infinity. Our asymptotic
results suggest that the weight function associated with the polynomials has an
unusual singularity, which has never appeared for orthogonal polynomials in the
Askey scheme. Our main technique is the Wang and Wong's difference equation
method. In addition, the limiting zero distribution of the polynomials
is provided
Plancherel-Rotach asymptotic expansion for some polynomials from indeterminate moment problems
We study the Plancherel--Rotach asymptotics of four families of orthogonal
polynomials, the Chen--Ismail polynomials, the Berg-Letessier-Valent
polynomials, the Conrad--Flajolet polynomials I and II. All these polynomials
arise in indeterminate moment problems and three of them are birth and death
process polynomials with cubic or quartic rates. We employ a difference
equation asymptotic technique due to Z. Wang and R. Wong. Our analysis leads to
a conjecture about large degree behavior of polynomials orthogonal with respect
to solutions of indeterminate moment problems.Comment: 34 pages, typos corrected and references update
Asymptotic Gap Probability Distributions of the Gaussian Unitary Ensembles and Jacobi Unitary Ensembles
In this paper, we address a class of problems in unitary ensembles.
Specifically, we study the probability that a gap symmetric about 0, i.e.
is found in the Gaussian unitary ensembles (GUE) and the Jacobi
unitary ensembles (JUE) (where in the JUE, we take the parameters
). By exploiting the even parity of the weight, a doubling of the
interval to for the GUE, and , for the (symmetric) JUE,
shows that the gap probabilities maybe determined as the product of the
smallest eigenvalue distributions of the LUE with parameter and
and the (shifted) JUE with weights and
The function, namely, the derivative of the
log of the smallest eigenvalue distributions of the finite- LUE or the JUE,
satisfies the Jimbo-Miwa-Okamoto form of and ,
although in the shift Jacobi case, with the weight
the parameter does not show up in the equation. We also obtain the
asymptotic expansions for the smallest eigenvalue distributions of the Laguerre
unitary and Jacobi unitary ensembles after appropriate double scalings, and
obtained the constants in the asymptotic expansion of the gap probablities,
expressed in term of the Barnes function valuated at special point.Comment: 38 page
