Abstract

We give a solution of the problem on trigonometric polynomials fnf_n with the given leading harmonic ycosnty\cos nt that deviate the least from zero in measure, more precisely, with respect to the functional μ(fn)=mes{t[0,2π]:fn(t)1}\mu(f_n)=mes\{t\in[0,2\pi]: |f_n(t)|\ge 1\}. For trigonometric polynomials with a fixed leading harmonic, we consider the least uniform deviation from zero on a compact set and find the minimal value of the deviation over compact subsets of the torus that have a given measure. We give a solution of a similar problem on the unit circle for algebraic polynomials with zeros on the circle.
