Equidistribution of zeros of some polynomials related to cyclic functions

Abstract: In the study of the cyclicity of a function $f$ in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces an important role is played by sequences of polynomials ${p_n}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ called \emph{optimal polynomial approximants} (o.p.a.). For many such spaces and when the functions $f$ generating those o.p.a. are polynomials without zeros inside the disk but with some zeros on its boundary, we find that the weakly asympotic distribution of the zeros of $1-p_nf$ is the uniform measure on the unit circle.
