New examples of nonnegative trigonometric polynomials with integer coefficients

A.S.Belov

In the paper it is proved that for any positive integer n and any number $\lambda \geq 1$ the following estimate holds:

$2 \lambda n^{\alpha} + \sum_{k=1}^s [ \lambda ( \frac nk )^{\alpha} - 1] \cos (kx) > 0$
for all x and s = 0,..., n. Here the braces mean the integer part of a number, and $\alpha \in (0,1)$ is the unique root of the equation $\int_0^{3\pi/2} t^{-\alpha} \cos t dt = 0$.

It is proved also that for any positive integer n and any numbers $q \geq 2$ and $\lambda \geq sq^q$ the following estimate is true:

$4\lambda n^{1/q} + \sum_{k=1}^n [ \lambda (( \frac nk )^{1/q} - 1) + 1 ] \cos (kx) > 0$
for all x.

From these two main results and similar ones new estimates in some extremal problems connected with nonnegative trigonometric polynomials with integer coefficients are deduced.

All articles are published in Russian.
