Analysis of Norm-Attainability and Convergence Properties of Orthogonal Polynomials in Weighted Sobolev Spaces

Abstract

This paper explores norm-attainability of orthogonal polynomials in Sobolev spaces, investigating properties like existence, uniqueness, and convergence. It establishes the convergence of these polynomials in Sobolev spaces, addressing orthogonality preservation and derivative behaviors. Spectral properties, including Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems, are analyzed, enhancing the understanding of these polynomials. The study incorporates fundamental concepts like reproducing kernels, Riesz representations, and Bessel’s inequality. Results contribute to the theoretical understanding of orthogonal polynomials, with potential applications in diverse mathematical and computational contexts.
