Evaluating products of cyclotomic polynomials at roots of unity

Are there general non-trivial conditions on $p(\cdot)$ and $n$, where $p(\cdot)$ is a product of cyclotomic polynomials and $n$ is a positive integer, such that all the coefficients of $p(\cdot)$ are ...

Recover cyclotomic integer with bounded coefficients from its known associate

Recall that two cyclotomic integers are called associated if their ratio is a unit in the corresponding ring of cyclotomic integers. We will view cyclotomic integers as polynomials (of degree $<\...

Real root of the derivative of a prime cyclotomic polynomial

Consider the graph of $y=x^n$ with $n$ odd, and draw a tangent to its negative arc that crosses the graph at $(1,1)$. Equating the slopes gives us $\frac{x^n-1}{x-1}=nx^{n-1}$ at the point of tangency....
