Abstract

In Sections 4 through 11 of this paper we study the phase behaviour, on the unit circle, for the so called “ultraflat unimodular polynomials” the existence of which is known since Kahane’s celebrated 1980 paper [7]. Before doing so we recall, in Sections 2 and 3, some definitions and historical background.
