报告摘要：Based on van der Poorten's work on continued fractions in function fields, we consider a family of orthogonal polynomials defined by the J-fraction expansion of a meromorphic function of order g+1 on a hyperelliptic curve of genus g. The case of a rational curve (g=0) just produces the Chebyshev polynomials of the 2nd kind, while the elliptic case (g=1) is related to elliptic orthogonal polynomials that were constructed by Akhiezer. For all g>0, the recurrence coefficients obey discrete dynamical systems which are algebraically integrable, being associated with genus g solutions of the Toda lattice. In particular, for g=1 we find a particular Quispel-Roberts-Thompson (QRT) map, together with explicit solutions in terms of Hankel determinants which satisfy the Somos-4 recurrence relation. If time permits, we will mention more recent results with Roberts, Vanhaecke and Zullo, relating to S-fraction expansions and solutions of Volterra/modified Volterra lattices.
