Abstract :
Let View the MathML sourceE=⋃j=1l[a2j−1,a2j] be the union of ll disjoint intervals and set View the MathML sourceω(∞)=(ω1(∞),…,ωl−1(∞)), where ωj(∞)ωj(∞) is the harmonic measure of [a2j−1,a2j][a2j−1,a2j] at infinity. Let μμ be a measure which is absolutely continuous on EE, satisfying Szegő’s condition, and with at most a finite number of point measures outside EE, and denote by (Pn)(Pn) and (Qn)(Qn) the orthonormal polynomials and their associated Weyl solutions with respect to μμ. We show that the recurrence coefficients have topologically the same convergence behavior as the sequence View the MathML source(nω(∞))n∈N modulo 1. As one of the consequences, there is a homeomorphism from the so-called gaps View the MathML sourceXj=1l−1([a2j,a2j+1]+∪[a2j,a2j+1]−) on the Riemann surface for View the MathML sourcey2=∏j=12l(x−aj) into the set of accumulation points of the sequence of recurrence coefficients if ω1(∞),…,ωl−1(∞)ω1(∞),…,ωl−1(∞), 1 are linearly independent over the rational numbers QQ. Furthermore, it is shown that the convergence behavior of the sequence of recurrence coefficients and of the sequence of zeros of the orthonormal polynomials and Weyl solutions outside the spectrum is topologically the same. These results are proved by proving corresponding statements for the accumulation points of the vector of moments of the diagonal Green’s functions.
