To answer a question of Professor Georges Rhin

Professor Georges Rhin considers a nonzero algebraic integer $\a$ with conjugates $\a_1=\a, \ldots, \a_d$ and asks what can be said about $\d \sum_{ | \a_i | >1} | \a_i |$, that we denote ${\rm{R}}(\a)$. If $\a$ is supposed to be a totally positive algebraic integer, we can establish an analog to the famous Schur-Siegel-Smyth trace problem for this measure. After that, we compute the greatest lower bound $c(\theta)$ of the quantities ${\rm{R(\a)}}/d$, for $\a$ belonging to nine subintervals of $]0, 90 [$. The third three subintervals are complete and consecutive. All our results are obtained by using the method of explicit auxiliary functions. The polynomials involved in these functions are found by our recursive algorithm.

Properties of Trinomials of Height at least 2

This paper is concerned with trinomials of the form $z^{n}+az^{m}+b$, where $0<m<n$ are relatively prime integers and $a$ and $b$ are non-zero complex numbers. Typically (but not exclusively), $a$ will be an integer with $|a| \geq 2$, while $b=\pm 1$. Our main results cover the irreducibility, Mahler measure and house of such trinomials.

Une nouvelle minoration pour la trace des entiers algébriques totalement positifs

We explain how a slight variant in the use of our recursive algorithm leads to improve the known lower bounds for the absolute trace of a totally positive algebraic integer. We also link the absolute trace of a totally positive algebraic integer and the absolute trace of a totally positive reciprocal integer.
