Abstract

We show that if two complex quadratic polynomials in a single variable each have a coefficient 1, then their product must have a coefficient with absolute value at least ( 13 − 3 ) / 2 (\sqrt {13}-3)/2 . This is best possible. There is a more natural and classical formulation using heights. We also present some speculations about higher degree involving Littlewood polynomials.
