The Modulus of Polynomials with Zeros at the Roots of Unity
Let \(M_n\) denote the maximum on the unit circle of the product \(P_n(z) = \prod_{k=1}^n (1-z^k)\). The authors give a nicely motivated proof of the lower bound \(M_n \geq c \sqrt n 2^{n/6}\), where \(c > 0\) is a constant. They ask about the correct rate of growth of \(M_n\). In fact this was determined by \textit{C. Sudler jun.} [Q. J. Math., Oxf. II. Ser. 15, 1-10 (1964; Zbl 0151.01402)], who showed that \(\log M_n = Kn + O(\log n)\), where \(K = .1986176\dots\) is the maximum for \({1 \over 2} < w < 1\) of the function \(w^{-1} \int_0^w \log(2 \sin \pi t) dt\). This result was refined by \textit{E. M. Wright} [Q. J. Math. Oxf., II. Ser. 15, 11-15 (1964; Zbl 0151.01403), and ibid. 283-287 (1964; Zbl 0151.01403)] who also found asymptotic expressions for the coefficients of \(P_n(z)\).
