%N Numbers k = p*q*r, with odd primes p < q < r, such that Sister Beiter's cyclotomic coefficient conjecture is false.

%C In 1968, Sister Beiter conjectured that for k = p*q*r, with odd primes p < q < r, the maximum coefficient (in absolute value) of the cyclotomic polynomial Phi(k,x) is <= (p+1)/2. Up to 10^6, all counterexamples have p > 7. Gallot and Moree prove the conjecture is false for p > 7.
