Abstract

We study Nevai's condition that for orthogonal polynomials on the real line, Kn(x, x0)2 Kn(x0, x0)-1 dρ(x) → ρx0 Where Kn is the Christoffel-Darboux kernel. We prove that it holds for the Nevai class of a finite gap set uniformly on the spectrum, and we provide an example of a regular measure on [-2,2] where it fails on an interval.
