Extract

The present paper is a sequel to a previous paper (1) in which I proved a conjecture made by R. M. Robinson concerning sums of three roots of unity. For any algebraic integer α, we denote by the maximum absolute value of α and all its algebraic conjugates. We say that α and β are equivalent if α = εβ′, where ε is some root of unity and β′ is some conjugate of β; when this happens we obviously have
