Let $R_n^{(a,b)}=P_n^{(a,b)}/P_n^{(a,b)}(1)$ be the normalised Jacobi polynomials. For $\alpha\ge0$, put $\xi_0=-1$ and let $\xi_n$ be the largest zero of $R_n^{(\alpha+1,\alpha)}$ for $n\ge1$. We prove that $$ R_k^{(\alpha,\alpha)}(x) =\min_{n\ge0}R_n^{(\alpha,\alpha)}(x), \quad \xi_{k-1}\le x\le\xi_k, $$ for every $k\ge1$. This determines the pointwise lower envelope of the normalised ultraspherical polynomials and answers Question 2 posed by F. M. de Oliveira Filho in his 2009 thesis. For $\alpha>0$ and $-1<x<1$, we also determine all minimising degrees. The sequence is non-increasing up to each such degree, which answers his Question 1 in this range. A Legendre example gives a negative answer when $\alpha=0$.
Let $(a_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a sequence of complex numbers, and define \[ b_n=\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k} a_k, \qquad c_n=\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k}(-1)^{n-k}a_k. \] Let $\beta>1$, put $\alpha=\sqrt{\beta^2-1}$, and suppose that $b_n,c_n=O(\beta^n)$. Mashreghi and Ransford proved that \[ \limsup_{n\to\infty}\frac{|a_n|}{\alpha...
Let $\Omega_{n}=\{-1,1\}^n$ be the $n$-dimensional hypercube equipped with the normalized uniform measure, let $\nabla$ be the Walsh gradient and let $\Delta$ be the Walsh Laplacian. For every $1<p\leq 2$ we prove the following estimate \[ \|\nabla f\|_{L_p(\Omega_n;\ell_2^n)} \leq c_{{\rm abs}}(p-1)^{-2}\|\Delta^{1/p}...

Let $z_{n,j}(\lambda)$ denote the positive zeros, in decreasing order, of the ultraspherical polynomial $C_n^\lambda$, $\lambda>-1/2$, with the reduced limiting interpretation at $\lambda=0$ specified below. Our principal result settles three higher-monotonicity questions of Gautschi: two as printed and the natural ope...
We prove that for every dimension $n \geq 2$ and parameter $p \in ]1,n[$, the hedgehog $u_0(x) = x/|x|$ is the unique minimiser of the $p$-energy $\mathcal{E}_p [u]:=\int_{\mathbf{B}^n}|\nabla u|^p\,{\rm d}x$ in the class of $W^{1,p}$-mappings from the $n$-dimensional unit ball $\mathbf{B}^n$ to the $(n-1)$-dimensional...
We study the positive Helson form $h_0[a,b]=\sum_{m,n\ge1}\alpha(mn)a_n\overline{b_m}$ on the finitely supported sequences $c_{00}\subset\ell^2(\mathbb{N})$, where $\alpha(n)=\int_{\mathbb{R}}n^{-s}d\mu(s)<\infty$ for a finite positive Borel measure $\mu$. Under the Carleman condition $\sum_{k\ge1}\alpha(4^k)^{-1/(2k)}...
Let $m\geq1$ be fixed. We consider the space $\mathcal{P}_m(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of real $m$-homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb{R}^n$, endowed with the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma_{m,n}$ associated with the Bombieri norm. We study how well the norm of a typical polynomial on the unit ball of $\ell_\infty^n$, namely th...
