Problem Statement

For every positive α \alpha, natural number n n, and at most αn \alpha n points xi x_i, construct a trigonometric polynomial P(x) P(x) of degree at most n n for which P(xi)1,  02πP(x)dx=0,   and   maxP(x)>cn , P(x_i) \leq 1, \; \int_0^{2 \pi} P(x)dx=0,\ \; \textrm{and}\ \; \max P(x) > cn\ , where the constant c c depends only on α \alpha.
