A characterization of positive quadrature formulae. (English) Zbl 0799.65020

It is shown that quasi-orthogonal polynomials that lead to positive quadrature formulae can all be expressed as characteristic polynomials of a symmetric tridiagonal matrix with positive subdiagonal elements. Numerical results are not given.
