On the Irrationality Exponent of the Number $\ln2$
Yu. V. Nesterenko M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University
Abstract:
We propose another method of deriving the Marcovecchio estimate for the irrationality measure of the number $\ln2$ following, for the most part, the method of proof of the irrationality of the number $\zeta(3)$ proposed by the author in 1996. The proof uses single complex integrals, the so-called Meyer $G$-functions, and is much simpler than that of Marcovecchio.
Keywords:
irrational number, Marcovecchio estimate, irrationality measure, irrationality exponent, Meyer $G$-function, saddle-point method.
