Research stay at UC3M: DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

Project: Study asymptotic properties and distribution of zeros of general Chebyshev type extremal polynomials associated with the usual Lp-norm on compact subsets of the real line endowed with Borel measures.

Investigate the relationship between optimal polynomial meshes and Gaussian-type cubature formulas on convex sets in the d-space.

Explore the methods of multivariate orthogonal polynomials and extremal multivariate polynomial inequalities in order to obtain new exact Markov and Bernstein type inequalities for multivariate polynomials in L2 norm.
