Asymptotic formulas for the zeros of the Meixner polynomials. (English) Zbl 0931.33006
In the paper under review interesting asymptotic results are given for the zeros of the Meixner polynomials. Large zeros and small zeros are discussed separately, and it is shown by numeric examples that the given estimates are quite accurate in some situations.
