For every integer $n \in \mathbb{N}$, we set $F_n(x) = \cos(n \arccos x)$.
Deduce from the above that $F_n$ extends to $\mathbb{R}$ as a unique polynomial function, whose degree and leading coefficient should be specified.

Let $z \in \mathbb{C}$. Consider the function of the real variable $x$ $$G_z : x \mapsto \sum_{p=0}^{+\infty} \left(x^p(2z - x)^p\right)$$ Deduce (from II.C.5) that $G_z$ admits a Taylor expansion to any order at 0. We denote it $$G_z(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{n} a_k x^k + o\left(x^n\right) \quad x \to 0$$ Determine the coefficients $a_k$ for $k \in \mathbb{N}$.

We consider a power series $g \in O_1$ with non-negative real coefficients. We assume that there exist $a > 0, b > 0$ such that $$g \prec a\left(I + \frac{g^2}{b - g}\right)$$ Show that there exist $r > 0$ and a function $h: ]-r, r[ \longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$, expandable as a power series at 0, satisfying $h(0) = 0$ and such that $$h(x) = a\left(x + \frac{h(x)^2}{b - h(x)}\right)$$ for all $x \in ]-r, r[$. We also denote by $h$ the element of $O_1$ associated with the function $h$.

We now study the linearization problem in the case $|\lambda| = 1$, with $\lambda$ not a root of unity. We set, for $m \geqslant 1$, $$\alpha_m := \min(1/5, \omega_{m+1}, \omega_{m+2}, \ldots, \omega_{2m}), \quad \gamma_m := \alpha_m^{2/m},$$ where $\omega_k := |\lambda^k - \lambda|, k \geqslant 2$, and $r_0 > 0$ is as given by question (24).
Still for $F \in O_{m+1}, m \geqslant 1$, we set $$P := \sum_{k=m+1}^{2m} \frac{(F)_k}{\lambda^k - \lambda} z^k \in O_{m+1} \quad , \quad R := (I + P)^\dagger - I.$$ Show that $P \circ (\lambda I) - \lambda P - F \in O_{2m+1}$ and that $R + P \in O_{2m+1}$. Show that $\hat{P}(r) \leqslant \alpha_m r$ for all $r \in [0, \gamma_m r_0]$, and that $$\hat{R}(r) \leqslant \frac{\alpha_m}{1 - \alpha_m} r$$ for all $r \in [0, (1-\alpha_m)\gamma_m r_0]$.
