“…A nice summary, as well as many references, can be found in [8]. As in the scalar case, matrix orthogonal polynomials have proved to be a useful tool in the analysis of many problems of mathematics such as differential equations [13,28], rational approximation theory [20], spectral theory of Jacobi matrices [1,29], analysis of polynomial sequences satisfying higher order recurrence relations [11,17], quantum random walks [3], and Gaussian quadrature formulas [2,12,16,31], among many others. In this contribution, we are interested in the study of some properties related with a perturbation of a sequence of matrix moments, within the framework of the theory of matrix orthogonal polynomials both on the real line and on the unit circle.…”
