Five-diagonal matrices and zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle (Q1863565)

The authors show that monic orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are closely related to a certain class of five-diagonal infinite matrices which can be constructed directly from the Schur parameters. The result is based upon the study of Laurent orthogonal polynomials, in particular on the five term recurrence relation they satisfy. As an application, some results on the behavior of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials and the location of the Schur parameters are obtained.
