Sažetak

Given an odd integer polynomial f(x) of a degree k >= 3,
we construct a non-negative valued, normed trigonometric polynomial with non-vanishing coefficients only at values of f(x) not greater than n, and a small free coefficient a_0 = O((log n)^{−1/k}). This gives an alternative proof of the bound for the maximal possible cardinality of a set of integers A, so that A − A does not contain an integer value of f(x). We also discuss other interpretations and an ergodic characterization of that bound.
