Abstract

We give a direct algebraic proof of the necessity direction in the single-point higher-order Szeg\H{o} sum rules on the unit circle for m=1,2,3m=1,2,3. More precisely, for Hm(eiθ)=(1cosθ)mH_m(e^{i\theta})=(1-\cos\theta)^m, we show that 02πHm(eiθ)logw(θ)dθ2π>\int_0^{2\pi}H_m(e^{i\theta})\log w(\theta)\frac{d\theta}{2\pi}>-\infty implies (S1)mα2,α2m+2.(S-1)^m\alpha\in\ell^2,\qquad \alpha\in\ell^{2m+2}. The proof is carried out within Yan's algebraic model for higher-order sum rules. The main point is to obtain coercive lower bounds for the nonlogarithmic part of the truncated sum rule: the quadratic component yields the principal finite-difference energy, while the higher-order correction terms are controlled by telescoping cancellations and relative bounds. The logarithmic remainder then gives the required 2m+2\ell^{2m+2}-summability. The purpose is to isolate explicit low-order necessity arguments within the algebraic framework.
