Abstract

For 0<α<10<\alpha<1, we study the zeros of the sequence of polynomials {Pm(z)}m=0\left\{ P_{m}(z)\right\} _{m=0}^{\infty} generated by the reciprocal of (1t)α(12zt+t2)(1-t)^{\alpha}(1-2zt+t^{2}), expanded as a power series in tt. Equivalently, this sequence is obtained from a linear combination of Chebyshev polynomials whose coefficients have a binomial form. We show that the number of zeros of Pm(z)P_{m}(z) outside the interval (1,1)(-1,1) is bounded by a constant independent of mm.
