Proofs and numerical counterexamples are given in situations where the zeros of $R_n$, and $S_n$, respectively, interlace (or do not in general) with the zeros of $L_k^{\\alpha}$, $L_k^{\\alpha'}$, $k=n$ or $n-1$. The results we prove hold for continuous, as well as integral, shifts of the parameter $\\alpha$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-12-03T14:38:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C45", "42C05" ], "keywords": [ "linear combinations", "laguerre polynomials", "study interlacing properties", "numerical counterexamples", "situations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1016/j.cam.2009.02.091", "journal": "Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics", "year": 2009, "month": "Dec", "volume": 233, "number": 3, "pages": 719 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009JCoAM.233..719D" } } }
