A class of orthogonal functions given by a three term recurrence formula

The main goal in this manuscript is to present a class of functions satisfying a certain orthogonality property for which there also exists a three term recurrence formula. This class of functions, which can be considered as an extension to the class of symmetric orthogonal polynomials on $[-1,1]$, has a complete connection to the orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. Quadrature rules and other properties based on the zeros of these functions are also considered.
