Abstract:We prove that certain sequences of Laurent polynomials, obtained from a fixed Laurent polynomial P by monomial substitutions, give rise to sequences of Mahler measures which converge to the Mahler measure of P. This generalizes previous work of Boyd and Lawton, who considered univariate monomial substitutions. We provide moreover an explicit upper bound for the error term in this convergence, generalizing work of Dimitrov and Habegger, and a full asymptotic expansion for a family of 2-variable polynomials, who… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
