Large integer polynomials in several variables (Q2504935): Difference between revisions

Summary: For every sufficiently large positive integer \(D\), we construct a family of irreducible integer polynomials of degree \(D\) in \(n\) variables whose Mahler measures are bounded by \(D\) and whose values at \((1,\dots, 1)\) are greater than \(\exp\{(1/9n) D^{n/(n+1)}\}\). This shows that an upper bound for the height of integer irreducible polynomials in terms of their degree and Mahler measure obtained by \textit{F. Amoroso} and \textit{M. Mignotte} [Acta Arith. 99, No. 1, 1--12 (2001; Zbl 0978.11007)] is sharp up to a logarithmic factor.
