Consequences of the continuity of the monic integer transfinite diameter

Abstract: We consider the problem of determining the monic integer transfinite diameter for real intervals

I

of length less than 4. We show that

t_{M} ([0, x])

, as a function in

x > 0

, is continuous, therefore disproving two conjectures due to Hare and Smyth. Consequently, for

n > 2 i n a t u r a l s

, we define the quantity

and give lower and upper bounds of

b_{m a x} (n)

. Finally, we improve the lower bound for

b_{m a x} (n)

for

3 l e q n l e q 8

.
