Here $d\theta/2\pi$ is the normalized Lebesgue measure and $\lambda$ is a positive real number. The nonhomogeneous second-order differential equations satisfied by the sequence of monic Sobolev orthogonal polynomials are obtained. Moreover, as an application, a sample of the Dirichlet boundary value problem is solved.application/pdfeng© ElsevierOrthogonal polynomialsSobolev inner productsDifferential operatorsresearch articleMatemáticas10.1016/S0377-0427(00)00645-2open access
