These polyn omials were considered by Fekete in an attempt to understand real zeros of Dirichlet L-functions in the critical strip. Since then\, their zeros and value distribution have been extensively studied. In this talk I will pre sent some recent results concerning real zeros of Fekete polynomials.  We shall also discuss applications to sign changes of quadratic character sum s and zeros of theta functions. This is a joint work with O. Klurman and M .
