Orthonormal polynomials for generalized Freud-type weights and higher-order Hermite-Feje'r interpolation polynomials

Let Q: R → R be even, nonnegative and continuous, Q' be continuous, Q' > 0 in (0, ∞), and let Q'' be continuous in (0, ∞). Furthermore, Q satisfies further conditions. We consider a certain generalized Freud-type weight WrQ2(x) = |x|2r exp(-2Q(x)). In previous paper (J. Approx. Theory 121 (2003) 13) we studied the properties of orthonormal polynomials {Pn(WrQ2; x)}n=0x with the generalized Freud-type weight WrQ2(x) on R. In this paper we treat three themes. Firstly, we give an estimate of Pn(WrQ2; x) in the Lp-space, 0 < p ≤ ∞. Secondly, we obtain the Markov inequalities, and third we study the higher-order Hermite Fejer interpolation polynomials based at the zeros {xkn}k=1n of Pn(WrQ2; x). In Section 5 we show that our results are applicable to the study of approximation for continuous functions by the higher-order Hermite-Fejer interpolation polynomials.
