Abstract

Let \({\alpha}\) be a square matrix of measures, and \({\left\{P_n(x; \alpha)\right\}_{n\geq 0}}\) the associated sequence of orthonormal matrix polynomials satisfying the three-term recurrence relation \({x P_n(x; \alpha) = A_{n+1}(\alpha)P_{n+1}(x; \alpha) + B_n(\alpha) P_n(x; \alpha) + A_n^{\ast}(\alpha)P_{n-1}(x; \alpha),}\) \({n \geq 0.}\) Let \({{\rm d}\beta(u) {\overset{ {\rm def} }{=}} {\rm d}\alpha(u) + M\delta(u - c)}\), where \({M}\) is a positive definite matrix, \({\delta (u - c)}\) is the Dirac measure supported at \({c}\) that is located outside the support of \({{\rm d}\alpha}\). We study the outer relative asymptotics of the sequence \({\left\{P_n(x; \beta)\right\}_{n\geq 0}}\) with respect to the sequence \({\left\{P_n(x; \alpha)\right\}_{n\geq 0}}\) under quite general assumption on the coefficients of the three-term recurrence relation \({\left\{A_{n}(\alpha) \right\}_{n\geq 0}}\) and \({\left\{B_{n}(\alpha) \right\}_{n\geq 0}}\).
