Abstract

Given a nontrivial Borel measure mu on the unit circle T, the corresponding reproducing (or Christoffel-Darboux) kernels with one of the variables fixed at z = 1 constitute a family of so-called para-orthogonal polynomials, whose zeros belong to T. With a proper normalization they satisfy a three-term recurrence relation determined by two sequences of real coefficients, [c(n)] and [d(n)], where [d(n)] is additionally a positive chain sequence. Coefficients (c(n), d(n)) provide a parametrization of a family of measures related to mu by addition of a mass point at z = 1. In this paper we estimate the location of the extreme zeros (those closest to z = 1) of the para-orthogonal polynomials from the (c(n), d(n))-parametrization of the measure, and use this information to establish sufficient conditions for the existence of a gap in the support of mu at z = 1. These results are easily reformulated in order to find gaps in the support of mu at any other z epsilon T. We provide also some examples showing that the bounds are tight and illustrate their computational applications. (AU)
