We consider for n=0,1,... the nested spaces L_n of rational functions of degree n at most with given poles 1/ã_i, |ã_i|<1, i=1,...,n. It is known that, given a measure supported on the unit circle, it is possible to generate a nested orthogonal basis fn in Ln of rationals. These satisfy a recurrence relation that generalizes the recurrence for Szegö polynomials.In this paper we shall prove a Favard type theorem which says that if you have a sequence of rational functions fn in L_n which are generated by such a recurrence,then there will be a measure µ supported on the unit circle to which they are orthogonal. We shall give a sufficient condition for the uniqueness of this measure.status: publishe
