The number of books treating the subject, however, is limited. This monograph brings together some results involving the asymptotic behaviour of orthogonal polynomials when the degree tends to infinity, assuming only a basic knowledge of real and complex analysis. An extensive treatment, starting with special knowledge of the orthogonality measure, is given for orthogonal polynomials on a compact set and on an unbounded set. Another possible approach is to start from properties of the coefficients in the three-term recurrence relation for orthogonal polynomials. This is done using the methods of (discrete) scattering theory. A new method, based on limit theorems in probability theory, to obtain asymptotic formulas for some polynomials is also given. Various consequences of all the results are described and applications are given ranging from random matrices and birth-death processes to discrete Schrödinger operators, illustrating the close interaction with different branches of applied mathematics. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Mathematics,$x0075-8434 ;$v1265 606 $aOrthogonal polynomials$xAsymptotic theory 606 $aMathematical analysis$vCongresses 615 0$aOrthogonal polynomials$xAsymptotic theory. 615 0$aMathematical analysis 676 $a515.55 686 $a42C05$2msc 686 $a33A65$2msc 700 $aAssche$b Walter van$f1958-$0149638 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996466489603316 996 $aAsymptotics for orthogonal polynomials$978533 997 $aUNISA
