The talk will describe recent work, joint with Barry Simon, on how
spectral theoretic ideas can be applied in the study of boundary behavior
of power series.
In particular, we describe how the notions of right-limit and
reflectionless operators from spectral theory can be used to obtain
results for power series with bounded Taylor coefficients.
We recover and (within the class of bounded coefficients) improve
various classical results.
