Zeros and logarithmic asymptotics of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials for exponential weights

[摘要] We obtain the (contracted) weak zero asymptotics for orthogonal polynomials with respect to Sobolev inner products with exponential weights in the real semiaxis, of the form X(gamma)e(-phi(X)), with gamma > 0, which include as particular cases the counterparts of the so-called Freud (i.e., when phi has a polynomial growth at infinity) and Erdos (when phi grows faster than any polynomial at infinity) weights. In addition, the boundness of the distance of the zeros of these Sobolev orthogonal polynomials to the convex hull of the support and, as a consequence, a result on logarithmic asymptotics are derived.
