On Newman polynomials without roots on the unit circle
A. Dubickas Institute of Mathematics, Vilnius University, Vilnius (Lithuania)
Abstract:
In this note we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the triplet of nonnegative integers $a<b<c$ for which the Newman polynomial
$\sum_{j=0}^a x^j + \sum_{j=b}^c x^j$ has a root on the unit circle.
From this condition we derive that for each $d \geq 3$ there is a positive integer $n>d$ such that the Newman
polynomial
$1+x+\dots+x^{d-2}+x^n$ of length $d$
has no roots on the unit circle.
Keywords:
Newman polynomial, root of unity.
