Here, Ln(·) means the leading coefficient of the orthonormal matrix polynomials Φn(z; •).Finally, we deduce the asymptotic behavior of $\Phi_n(omega, \tilde{\Omega}) \Phi_n(omega, \Omega)$ in the case when M=I.The work of the second author was supported by Dirección General de Enseñanza Superior (DGES) of Spain under grant PB96-0120-C03-01 and INTAS Project INTAS93-0219 Ext.Publicad
