Abstract
We discuss a fast approximate solution to the associated classical-classical orthogonal polynomial connection problem. We first show that associated classical orthogonal polynomials are solutions to a fourth-order quadratic eigenvalue problem with polynomial coefficients such that the differential operator is degree-preserving. Upon linearization, the discretization of this quadratic eigenvalue problem is block upper-triangular and banded. After a perfect shuffle, we extend a divide-and-conquer approach to the upper-triangular and banded generalized eigenvalue problem to the blocked case, which may be accelerated by one of a few different algorithms. Associated orthogonal polynomials arise from iterated Stieltjes transforms of orthogonal polynomials; hence, fast approximate conversion to classical cases combined with fast discrete sine and cosine transforms provides a modular mechanism for synthesis of singular integral transforms of classical orthogonal polynomial expansions.
