We characterize all algebraic numbers which are roots of integer polynomials with a coefficient whose modulus is greater than or equal to the sum of moduli of all the remaining coefficients. It turns out that these numbers are zero, roots of unity and those algebraic numbers β whose conjugates over ℚ (including β itself) do not lie on the circle |z| = 1. We also describe all algebraic integers with norm B which are roots of an integer polynomial with constant coefficient B and the sum of moduli of all other coefficients at most |B|. In contrast to the above, the set of such algebraic integers is "quite small". These results are motivated by a recent paper of Frougny and Steiner on the so-called minimal weight β-expansions and are also related to some work on canonical number systems and tilings.

We present a general result of simultaneous approximation to several transcendental real, complex or p-adic numbers ξ1, …, ξt by conjugate algebraic numbers of bounded degree over ℚ, provided that the given transcendental numbers ξ1, …, ξt generate over ℚ a field of transcendence degree one. We provide sharper estimates for example when ξ1, …, ξt form an arithmetic progression with non-zero algebraic difference, or a geometric progression with non-zero algebraic ratio different from a root of unity. In this case, we also obtain by duality a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion expressed in terms of polynomials of bounded degree taking small values at ξ1, …, ξt.

AbstractLet $k$ be a field, and let $\alpha$ and $\alpha'$ be two algebraic numbers conjugate over $k$. We prove a result which implies that if $L\subset k(\alpha,\alpha')$ is an abelian or Hamiltonian extension of $k$, then $[L:k]\leq[k(\alpha):k]$. This is related to a certain question concerning the degree of an algebraic number and the degree of a quotient of its two conjugates provided that the quotient is a root of unity, which was raised (and answered) earlier by Cantor. Moreover, we introduce a new notion of the non-torsion power of an algebraic number and prove that a monic polynomial in $X$—irreducible over a real field and having $m$ roots of equal modulus, at least one of which is real—is a polynomial in $X^m$.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 11R04; 11R20; 11R32; 12F10
