Complete Bernstein functions and scaled ultraspherical zeros

Let $z_{n,j}(\lambda)$ denote the positive zeros, in decreasing order, of the ultraspherical polynomial $C_n^\lambda$, $\lambda>-1/2$, with the reduced limiting interpretation at $\lambda=0$ specified below. Our principal result settles three higher-monotonicity questions of Gautschi: two as printed and the natural ope...

A proof of Gautschi's conjecture on subrange Jacobi polynomials

Let $\pi_n$ be the monic polynomial of degree $n$ orthogonal on $[-c,c]$, $0<c\leq1$, with respect to the Jacobi weight $(1-x)^\alpha(1+x)^\beta$, where $-1<\alpha<\beta$. Gautschi conjectured that \[ \left[ \frac{\pi_n(-c)}{\pi_n(c)} \right]^2 \left(\frac{1-c}{1+c}\right)^{\beta-\alpha}<1. \] By his variation formula,...

Degree-uniform regions for Gautschi's conjecture on subrange Jacobi polynomials

Let $\pi_n$ be the monic polynomial of degree $n$ orthogonal on $[-c,c]$, $0<c\leq 1$, with respect to the Jacobi weight $(1-x)^\alpha(1+x)^\beta$, where $-1<\alpha<\beta$. Gautschi conjectured that $$ \left[ \frac{\pi_n(-c)}{\pi_n(c)} \right]^2 \left(\frac{1-c}{1+c}\right)^{\beta-\alpha}<1. $$ By his variation formula...
