Abstract

We show that the Szeg\H{o} matrices, associated with Verblunsky coefficients {αn}nZ+\{\alpha_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{Z}_+} obeying n=0nγαn2<\sum_{n = 0}^\infty n^\gamma |\alpha_n|^2 < \infty for some γ(0,1)\gamma \in (0,1), are bounded for values zDz \in \partial \mathbb{D} outside a set of Hausdorff dimension no more than 1γ1 - \gamma. In particular, the singular part of the associated probability measure on the unit circle is supported by a set of Hausdorff dimension no more than 1γ1-\gamma. This proves the OPUC Hausdorff dimension conjecture of Barry Simon from 2005.
