We consider base- expansions of Parry’s type, where are integers and is the positive solution to (the golden ratio corresponds to ). The map induces a discrete dynamical system on the interval and we study its associated transfer (Perron–Frobenius) operator . Our main result can be roughly summarized as follows: we explicitly construct two piecewise affine functions and with and such that for every sufficiently smooth which is supported in and satisfies , we have in . This is also compared with the case of integer bases, where more refined asymptotic formulas are possible.

We study Nevai’s condition from the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the real line. We prove that a large class of measures with unbounded Jacobi parameters satisfies Nevai’s condition locally uniformly on the support of the measure away from a finite explicit set. This allows us to give applications to relative uniform and weak asymptotics of Christoffel–Darboux kernels on the diagonal and to limit theorems for unconventionally normalized global linear statistics of orthogonal polynomial ensembles.

A compilation of new results on the asymptotic behaviour of the Humbert functions and , and also on the Appell function , is presented. As a by-product, we confirm a conjectured limit which appeared recently in the study of the Glauber–Ising model. We also propose two elementary asymptotic methods and confirm through some illustrative examples that both methods have great potential and can be applied to a large class of problems of asymptotic analysis. Finally, some directions of future research are pointed out in order to suggest ideas for further study.

We investigate the behaviour of invertible and Fredholm operators on interpolation scales constructed via a family of interpolation functors . This family includes both complex and real interpolation functors. Our results demonstrate, in particular, that kernels and cokernels of operators are stable on intervals of parameters where the operators are Fredholm. Additionally, we introduce the notion of Fredholm operators in the category of Banach couples, establishing its relevance for the obtained results.

In this article, we characterize completely alternating functions on an abelian semigroup in terms of completely monotone functions on the product semigroup . We also discuss completely alternating sequences induced by a class of rational functions and obtain a set of sufficient conditions (in terms of its zeros and poles) to determine them. As an application, we show a complete characterization of several classes of completely monotone functions on induced by rational functions in two variables. We also derive a set of necessary conditions for the complete monotonicity of the sequence .

We generalize the theory of Widom factors to the setting. We define Widom factors of compact subsets associated with multivariate orthogonal polynomials and weighted Chebyshev polynomials. We show that on product subsets of , where each is a non-polar compact subset of , these quantities have universal lower bounds which directly extend one dimensional results. Under the additional assumption that each is a subset of the real line, we provide improved lower bounds for Widom factors for some weight functions ; in particular, for the case . Finally, we define the Mahler measure of a multivariate polynomial relative to and obtain lower bounds for this quantity on product sets.

For the -Hermite, Laguerre, and Jacobi ensembles of dimension there exist central limit theorems for the freezing case such that the associated means and covariances can be expressed in terms of the associated Hermite, Laguerre, and Jacobi polynomials of order respectively as well as via the associated dual polynomials in the sense of de Boor and Saff. In this paper we derive limits for for the covariances of the largest (and smallest) eigenvalues for these frozen Jacobi ensembles in terms of Bessel functions. These results correspond to the hard edge analysis in the frozen Laguerre cases by Andraus and Lerner-Brecher and to known results for finite .
