MATH Seminar: “Lower Bounds for Extremal Polynomials”, Gökalp Alpan, 2:00PM November 5 2024 (EN)

You are cordially invited to the Analysis Seminar organized by the Department of Mathematics.

Speaker: Gökalp Alpan (Sabancı University)

“Lower Bounds for Extremal Polynomials”

Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss weighted Chebyshev polynomials and orthogonal polynomials, with a special emphasis on the real line.
The weighted Chebyshev polynomials are the monic polynomials that minimize the weighted sup-norm on a given set and monic orthogonal polynomials minimize the L2 norm associated with a Borel measure.
I will survey results involving the lower bounds of the norms of the extremal polynomials mentioned above. I will also discuss some recent results on asymptotics for the lower bounds, which generalize some classical results.
