We study sieved orthogonal
polynomials on the unit circle and using a result of Szegö we show that there is a
one to one correspondence between a family of sieved orthogonal polynomials on the
unit circle and two families of sieved orthogonal polynomials on the interval [−1,1],
namely sieved polynomials of the first and second kinds. We find explicit
representations of the sieved polynomials and the Herglotz transform of the measure
with respect to which they are orthogonal.
