Let

be the rath cyclotomic polynomial, and denote by An the absolute value of the largest coefficient of Fn(x).Schur proved that

and Emma Lehmer [5] showed that An>cn1/3 for infinitely many n; in fact she proved that n can be chosen as the product of three distinct primes. I proved [3] that there exists a positive constant q such that, for infinitely many n

and Bateman [1] proved very simply that, for every ∈>0 and all n>no(∈),
