The cyclotomic-divisibility equidistribution conjecture for Fekete polynomials
Let be a positive squarefree integer, let be an integer not dividing , set , and let
Let be the Fekete polynomial and let . The cyclotomic-divisibility equidistribution conjecture. The elements of , reduced modulo , equidistribute in if and only if the -th cyclotomic polynomial divides . Equivalently,
The proposition preceding this conjecture proves the equidistribution condition as a sufficient condition for cyclotomic divisibility, and the converse holds in all computed cases and in the cases covered by the cited theorem; its validity in general remains open.
