Abstract

In this paper, we deal with a problem of positivity of linear functionals in the linear space ℙ of polynomials in one variable with complex coefficients. Some new results of connection relations between the corresponding sequences of monic orthogonal polynomials of classical character are established.

Summary

Introduction

E linear functional U is positive definite if and only if Δn(U) > 0, for every integer n ≥ 0, where Δn(U) is the Hankel determinants of order n of U (see [5]). 2. Orthogonality and Positive-Definite Linear Functional Character A linear functional U is said to be quasi-definite (regular) if we can associate with it a monic polynomial sequence (MPS) 􏼈Bn􏼉n ≥ 0 with degBn n, n ≥ 0, such that
