We settle two conjectures of Gautschi on the degree dependence of the zeros of the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}$, $\alpha,\beta>-1$, and obtain results substantially stronger than those conjectured. The conjectures stem from a line of questions originating in spherical cubature and hyperinterpolation. A Liouville transformation and Sturm comparison yield affine comparison principles with exact thresholds for the pointwise monotonicity of the rescaled potential. We prove that an increasing affine ordering with a degree-independent shift exists if and only if $|\beta|\leq1/2$. For the spectral scale $n+(\alpha+\beta+1)/2$, we determine the exact parameter regions for the two opposite orderings and show that no uniform spectral ordering is possible outside them. We also characterise all equality cases and derive finite-degree bounds in terms of Bessel zeros. The resulting classifications are exact and cannot be enlarged: outside the stated parameter regions the corresponding uniform zero orderings necessarily fail.
For Jacobi polynomials with parameters greater than $-1/2$, and with the relative extrema enumerated from the endpoint $x=1$, the normalised modulus at the $k$th extremum of degree $n+1$ is proved to be strictly smaller than that at the $k$th extremum of degree $n$, for $1\leq k\leq n$. This proves the Szeg\H{o} conjec...
We prove measure-rigidity results for regular polynomial endomorphisms of~$\mathbb{C}^k$. For maps of the same degree whose leading homogeneous parts differ by an invertible linear map on the target, equality of equilibrium measures is equivalent to postcomposition by an affine symmetry of the Julia set. We then show t...
We give an all-level proof of the four-point $SU(2)$ AGT correspondence with four fundamental hypermultiplets at generic $\beta=-\epsilon_1/\epsilon_2$, by proving an all-level factorization formula for Selberg averages of generalized Jack polynomials. Taking a coefficientwise Jack limit of the generalized Macdonald Pi...
For positive integers $n$ and $M$, Sundaram defined $ F_{n,M}=\sum_{\substack{d\mid n\\d\le M}} Lie_{n/d}[p_d] $ and conjectured that every coefficient in its Schur expansion is a nonnegative integer. We prove the conjecture. The power-sum expansion isolates the contribution of the identity class, and the proof divides...

We consider a Sobolev-type inner product known from the literature. This inner product is a modification of the inner product of Meixner polynomials containing an additional term at a point $a\in\mathbb{R},$ involving the forward-difference operator $\Delta$ and a weight $\lambda>0.$ Here, the poin...

Let (a_k) be the positive coefficient sequence of the normalized Riemann xi-function, and let D_{r,k} denote its consecutive Toeplitz minors. The Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to (a_k) being a Polya frequency sequence of infinite order, and hence to nonnegativity of all Toeplitz minors. We prove that D_{r,k}>0 for e...
