The smallest eigenvalue of large Hankel matrices generated by a singularly perturbed Laguerre weight (2006.06318v1)

Abstract: An asymptotic expression of the orthonormal polynomials $\mathcal{P}{N}(z)$ as $N\rightarrow\infty$, associated with the singularly perturbed Laguerre weight $w{\alpha}(x;t)=x^{\alpha}{\rm e}^{-x-\frac{t}{x}},~x\in[0,\infty),~\alpha>-1,~t\geq0$ is derived. Based on this, we establish the asymptotic behavior of the smallest eigenvalue, $\lambda_{N}$, of the Hankel matrix generated by the weight $w_{\alpha}(x;t)$.
