## Jacobi polynomials, Bernstein-type inequalities and dispersion estimates for the discrete Laguerre operator.(English)Zbl 1405.33012

The Legendre polynomials satisfy the Bernstein’s inequality $$(1-x^2)^{1/4}|P_n(x)|\leq 2/\sqrt{\pi(2n+1)}$$, for any $$x\in[-1,1]$$. The authors are mainly interested in obtaining uniform estimates for certain expressions of the form $$(-x)^a(1+x)^b|P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)|$$ on $$[-1,1]$$, where $$P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}$$ are the Jacobi polynomials. The obtained estimates allowed them to investigate the dispersive estimates of certain Schrödinger equations whose Hamiltonian is a discrete Laguerre operator $$H_\alpha$$ acting in $$\ell^2(\{0,1,2,\ldots\})$$. This is based on the fact that the kernel of the evolution group $$\text{e}^{\text{i}tH_\alpha}$$ can be expressed by means of the Jacobi polynomials.
