We'll explain how to use their ideas to recover the Szeg}o and Killip{ Simon Theorems. The primary audience is spectral theorists and people working on orthogonal polynomials who have limited familiarity with the theory of large deviations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-08-04T08:58:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60F10", "35P05", "42C05" ], "keywords": [ "sum rules", "spectral theory", "pedagogical approach", "large deviation approach", "orthogonal polynomials" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
