abstract = {A sum of exponentials of the form $f(x)=\exp \left( 2\pi iN_\{1\}x\right) +\exp \left( 2\pi iN_\{2\}x\right) +\cdots +\exp \left( 2\pi iN_\{m\}x\right) $, where the $N_\{k\}$ are distinct integers is called an idempotent trigonometric polynomial (because the convolution of $f$ with itself is $f$) or, simply, an idempotent. We show that for every $p&gt;1,\,$ and every set $E$ of the torus $\mathbb\{T=R\}/\mathbb\{Z\}$ with $|E| &gt;0,$ there are idempotents concentrated on $E$ in the $L^\{p\}$ sense. More precisely, for each $p&gt;1,$ there is an explicitly calculated constant $C_\{p\}&gt;0$ so that for each $E$ with $|E| &gt;0$ and $\epsilon &gt;0$ one can find an idempotent $f$ such that the ratio $\left( \int _\{E\}|f| ^\{p\}\big / \int _\{\mathbb\{T\}\}|f| ^\{p\} \right) ^\{1/p\}$ is greater than $C_\{p\}-\epsilon $. This is in fact a lower bound result and, though not optimal, it is close to the best that our method gives. We also give both heuristic and computational evidence for the still open problem of whether the $L^\{p\}$ concentration phenomenon fails to occur when $p=1.$},

We show that for every $p&gt;1,\,$ and every set $E$ of the torus $\mathbb{T=R}/\mathbb{Z}$ with $|E| &gt;0,$ there are idempotents concentrated on $E$ in the $L^{p}$ sense.

This is in fact a lower bound result and, though not optimal, it is close to the best that our method gives.
