In 1959, Moser [4] posed the following problem: how should a pair of n-sided dice be loaded (identically) so that, on throwing the dice, the frequency of the most frequently occurring sum is as small as possible? This can be recast in the following form: determine for each n(≥1), the polynomial P n (x) which minimizes the maximum coefficient in the polynomial subject to the conditions that the coefficients of P n (x) are nonnegative and sum to unity.
