Erdős problem 990

Let f=a0++adxdC[x]f=a_0+\cdots+a_dx^d\in \mathbb{C}[x] be a polynomial. Is it true that, if ff has roots z1,,zdz_1,\ldots,z_d with corresponding arguments θ1,,θd[0,2π]\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_d\in [0,2\pi], then for all intervals I[0,2π]I\subseteq [0,2\pi] (#θiI)I2πd(nlogM)1/2, \left\lvert (\# \theta_i \in I) - \frac{\lvert I\rvert}{2\pi}d\right\rvert \ll \left(n\log M\right)^{1/2}, where nn is the number of non-zero coefficients of ff and M=a0++ad(a0ad)1/2. M=\frac{\lvert a_0\rvert+\cdots +\lvert a_d\rvert}{(\lvert a_0\rvert\lvert a_d\rvert)^{1/2}}.
