Abstract: Recently, Hang Liu and Hourong Qin came up with a numerical observation about the relation between the Mahler measures of one hyperelliptic and two elliptic families. The discoverers foresee a proof of the identities "by extending ideas in" two papers of Matilde Lal'{i}n and Gang Wu, the ideas based on a theorem of Spencer Bloch and explicit diamond-operation calculations on the underlying curves. We prove the relation using the already available diamond-free methodology. While finding such relations for the Mahler measures remains an art, proving them afterwards is mere complex (analysis) exercising.
