COMMENT
|
This number is algebraic of degree 10.
The Salem constant given here is the smallest known value of Mahler's measure M(f)=abs(a_d)*Product_{k=1..d}max(1,abs(b_k)) of a polynomial f(x)=sum_{k=0..d}(a_k*x^k)=a_d*Product_{k=1..d}(x-b_k). The minimum occurs for Lehmer's polynomial (coefficients A070178) L(x)=x^10+x^9-x^7-x^6-x^5-x^4-x^3+x+1 with M(L)=1.1762808... - Hugo Pfoertner (hugo(AT)pfoertner.org), Mar 12 2006
