In the non-normal case, it is possible to use various look-ahead strategies for computing the elements of a family of regular orthogonal polynomials. These strategies consist in jumping over non-existing and singular orthogonal polynomials by solving triangular linear systems. We show how to avoid them by using a new method called ALA (Avoiding Look-Ahead), for which we give three principal implementations. The application of ALA to Padé approximation, extrapolation methods and Lanczos method for...

A general theory of summation of divergent series based on the Hardy-Kolmogorov axioms is developed. A class of functional series is investigated by means of ergodic theory. The results are formulated in terms of solvability of some cohomological equations, all solutions to which are nonmeasurable. In particular, this realizes a construction of a nonmeasurable function as first conjectured by Kolmogorov.
