On the coefficients of divisors of x^n-1

Abstract: Let

a (r, n)

be

r

th coefficient of

n

th cyclotomic polynomial. Suzuki proved that

a (r, n) | r g e q 1, n g e q 1 = m a t h b b Z

. If

m

and

n

are two natural numbers we prove an analogue of Suzuki's theorem for divisors of

x^{n} - 1

with exactly

m

irreducible factors. We prove that for every finite sequence of integers

n_{1}, l d o t s, n_{r}

there exists a divisor

f (x) = s u m_{i = 0}^{d e g (f)} c_{i} x^{i}

of

x^{n} - 1

for some

n i n m a t h b b N

such that

c_{i} = n_{i}

for

1 l e q i l e q r

. Let

H (r, n)

denote the maximum absolute value of

r

th coefficient of divisors of

x^{n} - 1

. In the last section of the paper we give tight bounds for

H (r, n)

.
