It is shown that eventually all but a uniformly bounded number of the roots of the $L^p$-optimal polynomials lie within a small neighborhood of the support of a certain equilibrium measure; asymptotics for the $n$th roots of the $L^p$ norms are also provided. The case $p=\\infty$ is well known and corresponds to weighted Chebyshev polynomials; the case $p=2$ corresponding to orthogonal polynomials as well as any other $1\\leq p <\\infty$ is our contribution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-22T03:46:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "orthogonal polynomials", "varying weight", "optimal polynomials lie", "complex plane", "optimal weighted polynomials" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0910.4223B" } } }
