The associated \(q\)-Pollaczek polynomials \(F_ n^ \gamma(x)\) are given by the recurrence relation \[ (1-\gamma q^{n+1})F^ \gamma_{n+1}(x)=2[(1-\gamma U\Delta q^ n)x+\gamma Vq^ n]F_ n^ \gamma(x)-(1-\gamma\Delta^ 2q^{n-1})F^ \gamma_{n-1}(x). \] When \(q\to 1\) these polynomials lead to the associated Pollaczek polynomials. In the present paper other interesting limit points for \(q\) are considered, namely the \(k\)-th roots of unity. By putting \(q=se^{2\pi i/k}\) and \(\gamma=s^{kc+r}e^{2\pi ri/k}\) for some positive integer \(r<k\) together with similar substitutions for the parameters \(U,V,\Delta\), and then letting \(s\to 1\), the authors arrive at a set of orthogonal polynomials \(Q_ n(x)\) for which the recurrence relation has constant recurrence coefficients if \(n+r+1\not\equiv 0\bmod k\) and the recurrence relation is the one for associated Pollaczek polynomials when \(n+r+1\equiv 0\bmod k\). Orthogonal polynomials with this type of recurrence relation are known as sieved polynomials (the recurrence coefficients have been sieved). For the sieved associated Pollaczek polynomials the authors obtain the generating function and an asymptotic expansion as \(n\to\infty\). From this expansion the Stieltjes transform of the orthogonality measure is obtained and by the Perron-Stieltjes inversion formula one then arrives at the weight function, which is expressed in terms of hypergeometric functions.
