Description

Motivated both by digital filter design and polynomial-based matrix iteration methods, we study Green's function for the complement of a union of disjoint closed intervals. The key tool is the Schwarz-Christoffel map. Asymptotic analysis produces simple and useful leading terms for Green's function and the associated equilibrium distribution. Our results are applied to optimal lowpass filters and matrix iterations.
