The resolution of Saffari's phase problem
We say that an unimodular polynomial \[ P_n(z)= \sum^n_{k=0} a_kz^k, \quad|a_k|=1,\;k=0,1,\dots,n \] is an \(\varepsilon\)-ultraflat polynomial, if \[ (1-\varepsilon)\sqrt {n+1}\leq\bigl |P_n(z) \bigr|\leq (1+ \varepsilon) \sqrt{n+1} \text{ for }|z|= 1. \] More generally we write \((P_n)\in UF(\varepsilon_n)\), where \((\varepsilon_n)\) is a positive sequence tending to 0, if for every \(n\) a polynomial \(P_n\) is an \(\varepsilon_n\)-ultraflat polynomial. Let us put \[ P_n(e^{it})= R_n(t)e^{i \alpha_n(t)},\;R_n (t)= \bigl|P_n(e^{it}) \bigr|. \] In this paper some problems concerning an angular speed \(\alpha_n'(t)\) are investigated. In particular the following reformulation of the uniform distribution of Saffari's conjecture is presented. Theorem. Let \((P_n)\in UF(\varepsilon_n)\). Then for every \(q>0\) we have \[ {1 \over 2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi} \bigl|\alpha_n'(t) \bigr|^q dt={n^q \over q+1} (1+O_{n,q}) \] with suitable constants \(O_{n,p}\) converging to 0 as \(n\to \infty\) for every fixed \(q>0\).
