2- and 3-adic expansion conjecture for the gamma coefficients as alpha-polynomials

About 17 years old · traced to

Let r∈Nr\in\mathbb{N} and set a=α2−1a=\alpha^2-1. Define γ−12+r∗∗(a)\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}(a) by

γ−12+r(a+1)=1(2r)!ar6rγ−12+r∗∗(a),γ−12+r∗∗∈Q[a−1].\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}(a+1)=\frac{1}{(2r)!}\frac{a^r}{6^r}\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}(a),\qquad \gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}\in\mathbb{Q}[a^{-1}].

2- and 3-adic expansion conjecture. The polynomials γ−12+r∗∗(a)\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}(a) possess 2- and 3-adic expansions to all orders:

γ−12+r∗∗(a)=∑0≤jλ2,j(r,a)2j,\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}(a)=\sum_{0\leq j}\lambda_{2,j}(r,a)2^j,

where λ2,j(r,a)∈{0,1}\lambda_{2,j}(r,a)\in\{0,1\}, and

γ−12+r∗∗(a)=∑0≤jλ3,j(r,a)3j,\gamma_{-\frac{1}{2}+r}^{\ast\ast}(a)=\sum_{0\leq j}\lambda_{3,j}(r,a)3^j,

where λ3,j(r,a)∈{0,1,2}\lambda_{3,j}(r,a)\in\{0,1,2\}. The coefficients depend only on the first jj digits of the corresponding pp-adic expansion of rr:

λ2,j(r,a)=λ2,j([r0,r1,…,rj−1],a),r=∑0≤i<jri2i(mod2j),\lambda_{2,j}(r,a)=\lambda_{2,j}([r_0,r_1,\ldots,r_{j-1}],a),\qquad r=\sum_{0\leq i<j}r_i2^i\pmod {2^j}, λ3,j(r,a)=λ3,j([r0,r1,…,rj−1],a),r=∑0≤i<jri3i(mod3j).\lambda_{3,j}(r,a)=\lambda_{3,j}([r_0,r_1,\ldots,r_{j-1}],a),\qquad r=\sum_{0\leq i<j}r_i3^i\pmod {3^j}.

Moreover, each λ2,j(r,a)\lambda_{2,j}(r,a) has degree at most jj as a polynomial in a−1a^{-1}.
