Abstract

Uvarov-type perturbations for mixed-type multiple orthogonal polynomials on the step line are investigated within a matrix-analytic framework. The transformations considered involve both rational and additive modifications of a rectangular matrix of measures, implemented through left and right multiplication by regular matrix polynomials together with the addition of finitely many discrete matrix masses. These operations induce structured finite-band modifications of the corresponding moment matrix and rational transformations of the associated Markov-Stieltjes matrix function. Explicit Uvarov-type connection formulas are obtained, relating the perturbed and unperturbed families of mixed-type multiple orthogonal polynomials, and determinant conditions ensuring the existence of the new orthogonality are established. The algebraic consequences of these transformations are analyzed, showing their effect on the structure of the block-banded recurrence operators and on the spectral data encoded in the Markov-Stieltjes matrix functions. As an illustrative example, nontrivial Uvarov-type perturbations of the Jacobi-Pi\~neiro multiple orthogonal polynomials are presented. The results unify Christoffel, Geronimus, and Uvarov transformations within a single matrix framework, providing a linear-algebraic perspective on rational and additive spectral transformations of structured moment matrices and their corresponding recurrence operators.

On the log-concavity of the composite Bessel function $x^{\alpha}J_{\nu }\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $

For a twice differentiable function $f:\left( a,b\right) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ define $v\left( f\right) =f^{\prime}f^{\prime}-f^{\prime\prime }f.$ It is well known that the positivity of $v\left( f\right) $ implies that the function $\left\vert f\right\vert $ is strictly log-concave on each subinterval which does not contain zeros of $f.$ In this paper we provide criteria for the positivity of $v\left( F\right) $ for the composite Bessel function $F\left( x\right) =J_{\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\nu}\left( x\right) :=x^{\alpha}J_{\nu}\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $ for positive numbers $\beta$ and $\gamma$ and real numbers $\alpha$ and $\nu.$

Riesz capacity ratios with negative exponents

We investigate sharp inequalities for ratios of Riesz capacities with negative exponents by combining computational experiments with rigorous analysis. For finite subsets of the line, we prove positivity of equilibrium masses when $-1<p<0$, enabling numerical tests of conjectured extremal ratios. In the plane, comparisons of the disk with regular polygon vertex sets reveal a cascade of transitions among the tested competitors and suggest a precise conjecture for the equilibrium measure of odd polygons, for which we give a partial proof. Numerical intersections of equality curves show that the regions where these sets outperform the disk are not simply nested. Similar numerical intersections occur in three dimensions between the regular-simplex equality curve and those of explicit five-point and six-point configurations. Motivated by the dimensional dependence of these comparisons, we prove that for each fixed $p<-2<q<0$, the regular simplex has a larger capacity ratio than the ball in all sufficiently large dimensions. Accompanying Python and Mathematica code supports reproduction and further testing of the conjectures.

Shorter proof of dimension-free $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms

We provide a shorter and more direct proof of $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms (of an arbitrary order) in terms of the corresponding Riesz transforms, with a constant independent of the dimension of the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$. This result was originally proved by Mateu, Orobitg, P\'erez and Verdera with a constant depending on the dimension, and improved to a dimension-free inequality by Kucharski, Wr\'obel and Zienkiewicz.
