Feb 19, 2014 at 17:05 comment added James Propp Sketch of a possible proof: Write $f(x)$ as the sum of a quadratic function $g(x)$ and a function $h(x)$ satisfying $h(0)=h(1)$ and $h'(0)=h'(1)$. Prove the $o(1/n)$ estimate for $g(x)$ by direct computation and for $h(x)$ by Fourier methods (treating $h$ as a differentiable function on ${\bf R}/{\bf Z}$) and then add to get the $o(1/n)$ estimate for $f$. But is the needed lemma about differentiable functions on the circle true?
