First we consider the case where one of the functionals is arbitrary and quasi-definite and the other one is the Lebesgue normalized functional. Next we study the sum of two positive measures. The first one is arbitrary and the second one is the Lebesgue normalized measure and we obtain some relevant properties concerning the new measure. Finally we consider the sum of a Bernstein–Szegö measure and the Lebesgue measure. In this case we obtain more simple explicit algebraic relations as well as the relation between the corresponding Szegö’s functions.application/pdfeng© ElsevierOrthogonal polynomialsQuasi-definite functionalsLebesgue measureSzegö conditionBernstein–Szegö measuresLebesgue perturbation of a quasi-definite Hermitian functional.
