Review text

The author studies the set \(L_0\) consisting of Mahler measures of non-reciprocal polynomials \(f\in \mathbb Z[X]\), shows in Sect. 3 that the Mahler measure of \(X^4+(kX-1)^2\) is of degree 4, being a root of \(X^4-k^2X^3=2X^2-k^2X+1\), thus \(L_0\) contains infinitely many Salem numbers of degree \(4\), and establishes in Sect. 4 that \(L_0\) contains infinitely many Salem numbers of degree \(4m+2\) for \(m=1,2,\dots\).
