Zeros of Non-Baxter Paraorthogonal Polynomials on the Unit Circle

Constructive Approximation volume 35, pages 107–121 (2012)Cite this article

Abstract

We provide leading-order asymptotics for the size of the gap in the zeros around 1 of paraorthogonal polynomials on the unit circle whose Verblunsky coefficients satisfy a slow decay condition and are inside the interval (−1,0). We also include related results that impose less restrictive conditions on the Verblunsky coefficients.
