本文研究了关于变四次权ω(x) = e - nV (x),w hereV (x) = Vt(x) = x 4 4 + t 2 x 2的正交多项式的渐近性。我们关注临界情况t =−2,在某种意义上,对于t−2,相关平衡测度的支持是一个区间,而对于t<−2,支持由两个区间组成。得到了z在三个无界区域上的全局一致渐近展开式。这些区域一起覆盖了整个复z平面。特别地,在包含原点的区域中,展开涉及与第二个Painleve方程的Hastings- McLeod解相关的Ψ函数。我们的方法是基于Deift和Zhou (Ann)引入的黎曼-希尔伯特问题的最陡下降法的改进版本。数学。137(1993),295-370)。
In this paper, we study the asymptotics of polynomials orthogonal with respect to the varying quartic weight ω(x) = e −nV (x) ,w hereV (x) = Vt(x) = x 4 4 + t 2 x 2 . We focus on the critical case t = −2, in the sense that for t −2, the support of the associated equilibrium measure is a single interval, while for t< −2, the support consists of two intervals. Globally uniform asymptotic expansions are obtained for z in three unbounded regions. These regions together cover the whole complex z-plane. In particular, in the region containing the origin, the expansion involves the Ψ function affiliated with the Hastings- McLeod solution of the second Painleve equation. Our approach is based on a modified version of the steepest-descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems introduced by Deift and Zhou (Ann. Math. 137 (1993), 295-370).
