    Perturbations of Christoffel-Darboux kernels. I: detection of outliers

    by Bernhard Beckermann, Mihai Putinar, Edward B. Saff, Nikos Stylianopoulos

    Two central objects in constructive approximation, the Christoffel-Darboux kernel and the Christoffel function, are encoding ample information about the associated moment data and ultimately about the possible generating measures. We develop a multivariate theory of the Christoffel-Darboux kernel in C^d, with emphasis on the perturbation of Christoffel functions and their level sets with respect to perturbations of small norm or low rank. The statistical notion of leverage score provides a quantitative criterion for the detection of outliers in large data. Using the refined theory of Bergman orthogonal polynomials, we illustrate the main results, including some numerical simulations, in the case of finite atomic perturbations of area measure of a 2D region. Methods of function theory of a complex variable and (pluri)potential theory are widely used in the derivation of our perturbation formulas.

  • Относительная асимптотика ортогональных многочленов для возмущенных мер

    by Edward Barry Saff, Nikos Stylianopoulos

    В работе дается обзор и доказывается ряд новых результатов о поведении ортогональных многочленов на плоскости под воздействием малых возмущений меры ортогональности. Вводится понятие полиномиально малого возмущения меры. Именно, если $\{p_n(\mu_j,z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$, $j=0,1$, - последовательность многочленов, ортогональных по этой мере, то мера $\mu_0 \geqslant \mu_1$ называется полиномиально малым возмущением меры $\mu_1$, если $\|p_n(\mu_1, \cdot )\|_{L_2(\mu_0-\mu_1)}\to 0$ при $n\to\infty$. Устанавливаются результаты об асимптотическом поведении двух последовательностей ортонормированных многочленов. Также доказываются результаты о поведении нулей полиномиально малых возмущения многочленов, ортогональных относительно плоской меры (многочленов Бергмана). Библиография: 35 названий.

    Relative Asymptotics of Orthogonal Polynomials for Perturbed Measures

    by Edward B. Saff, Nikos Stylianopoulos

    In the context of orthogonal polynomials in the plane we introduce the notion of a polynomially small (PS) perturbation of a measure. In such a case we establish relative asymptotic results for the two sequences of the associated orthonormal polynomials. We also provide results dealing with the behaviour of the zeros of PS perturbations of area orthogonal (Bergman) polynomials.

  • Boundary Estimates for Bergman Polynomials in Domains with Corners

    by N. Stylianopoulos

    Let G G be a bounded simply-connected domain in the complex plane C \mathbb {C} , whose boundary Γ := ∂ G \Gamma :=\partial G is a Jordan curve, and let { p n } n = 0 ∞ \{p_n\}_{n=0}^{\infty } denote the sequence of Bergman polynomials of G G . This is defined as the unique sequence of polynomials { p n ( z ) } n = 0 ∞ \{p_n(z)\}_{n=0}^\infty , with positive leading coefficient, that are orthonormal with respect to the area measure on G G . The asymptotic behaviour of p n ( z ) p_n(z) in the exterior of Γ \Gamma , in cases when Γ \Gamma is a piecewise analytic Jordan curve have been established recently in \cite{St-CA13}. The purpose of this note is to derive, for the same class of curves, estimates for the asymptotics of p n ( z ) p_n(z) on Γ \Gamma .


  • Orthogonal Polynomials for Area-Type Measures and Image Recovery

    by E. B. Saff, H. Stahl, N. Stylianopoulos, V. Totik

    Let $G$ be a finite union of disjoint and bounded Jordan domains in the complex plane, let $\mathcal{K}$ be a compact subset of $G$, and consider the set $G^\star$ obtained from $G$ by removing $\mathcal{K}$; i.e., $G^\star:=G\setminus \mathcal{K}$. We refer to $G$ as an archipelago and $G^\star$ as an archipelago with lakes. Denote by $\{p_n(G,z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ and $\{p_n(G^\star,z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ the sequences of the Bergman polynomials associated with $G$ and $G^\star$, respectively, that is, the orthonormal polynomials with respect to the area measure on $G$ and $G^\star$. The purpose of the paper is to show that $p_n(G,z)$ and $p_n(G^\star,z)$ have comparable asymptotic properties, thereby demonstrating that the asymptotic properties of the Bergman polynomials for $G^\star$ are determined by the boundary of $G$. As a consequence we can analyze certain asymptotic properties of $p_n(G^\star,z)$ by using the corresponding results for $p_n(G,z)$, which were obtained in a recent work by B. Gustafsson, M...

    On the zeros of asymptotically extremal polynomial sequences in the plane

    by Edward B. Saff, Nikos Stylianopoulos

    Let $E$ be a compact set of positive logarithmic capacity in the complex plane and let $\{P_n(z)\}_{1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of asymptotically extremal monic polynomials for $E$ in the sense that \begin{equation*}%\label{} \limsup_{n\to\infty}\|P_n\|_E^{1/n}\le\mathrm{cap}(E). \end{equation*} The purpose of this note is to provide sufficient geometric conditions on $E$ under which the (full) sequence of normalized counting measures of the zeros of $\{P_n\}$ converges in the weak-star topology to the equilibrium measure on $E$, as $n\to\infty.$ Utilizing an argument of Gardiner and Pommerenke dealing with the balayage of measures, we show that this is true, for example, if the interior of the polynomial convex hull of $E$ has a single component and the boundary of this component has an "inward corner" (more generally, a "non-convex singularity"). This simple fact has thus far not been sufficiently emphasized in the literature. As applications we mention improvements of some known results on the distribution of zeros of some special polynomial sequences.

    Orthogonal polynomials for area-type measures and image recovery

    by E. B. Saff, H. Stahl, N. Stylianopoulos, V. Totik

    Let $G$ be a finite union of disjoint and bounded Jordan domains in the complex plane, let $\mathcal{K}$ be a compact subset of $G$ and consider the set $G^\star$ obtained from $G$ by removing $\mathcal{K}$; i.e., $G^\star:=G\setminus \mathcal{K}$. We refer to $G$ as an archipelago and $G^\star$ as an archipelago with lakes. Denote by $\{p_n(G,z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ and $\{p_n(G^\star,z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$, the sequences of the Bergman polynomials associated with $G$ and $G^\star$, respectively; that is, the orthonormal polynomials with respect to the area measure on $G$ and $G^\star$. The purpose of the paper is to show that $p_n(G,z)$ and $p_n(G^\star,z)$ have comparable asymptotic properties, thereby demonstrating that the asymptotic properties of the Bergman polynomials for $G^\star$ are determined by the boundary of $G$. As a consequence we can analyze certain asymptotic properties of $p_n(G^\star,z)$ by using the corresponding results for $p_n(G,z)$, which were obtained in a recent work by B. Gustafsson, M. Putinar, and two of the present authors. The results lead to a reconstruction algorithm for recovering the shape of an archipelago with lakes from a partial set of its complex moments.
