Abstract
Using potential theoretic methods and exploiting the connection with eigenvalues of Toeplitz matrices, we investigate the limiting behaviour of zeros of Faber polynomials generated by a Laurent series. Our results build upon fundamental work of J. L. Ullman. For example, we show that if E is a compact set with simply connected complement and connected interior whose boundary is either (i) not a piecewise analytic curve or (ii) a piecewise analytic curve but with a singularity other than an outward cusp, then the equilibrium distribution for E is a limit measure of the sequence of normalized zero counting measures for the Faber polynomials associated with E.
