Title: Orthogonal Polynomials in One and Two Variables With Applications

Abstract:
Polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle have played a useful role in various problems in engineering such as AR models, stability and spectral factorization, and the development of fast algorithms for the inversion of positive Toeplitz matrices. I will review the one variable theory and then discuss progress in extending these results to two variables. I will also mention some open problems.

Bio:
Dr. Geronimo has been a Professor of Mathematics in the Math Department at Georgia Tech since 1991. His interests include orthogonal polynomials, fractals, and wavelets.
