Abstract
Let\(\{ P_n \} _{n \in IN_0 }\) be a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a measure dω on the real line and\(\{ Q_n \} _{n \in IN_0 }\) the sequence of their associated functions (they are essentially the Hilbert transforms of these polynomials). We show how to get associated functions Q [m,l] n if the measure dω changes to\(\frac{{\Phi _m }}{{\varphi _l }}\), where Φm and ϕ l are polynomials of degree m resp.l.
The results can be used for example to construct Gaussian quadrature rules for rational modified weight functions.
