Operators associated with polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle an
d their doubly infinite analogs are considered. We assume that the ele
ments in the operators are obtained from a stationary stochastic proce
ss and we investigate the properties of the spectrum of these operator
s. Lyapunov exponents are introduced and we examine their relationship
with the absolutely continuous components of the spectrum of the abov
e operators. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
