Abstract

We investigate a class of complex-valued polynomials known as the Littlewood polynomials. These are polynomials with coefficients of $\pm 1$ of an arbitrary degree. The distribution of the roots of these polynomials has an interesting structure. We study the algebraic structure of the space of Littlewood polynomials and its zero sets.
