Gun–Ram Murty–Rath conjecture on logarithms of gamma values

About 8 years old · traced to

For any positive integer q>2q>2, let VΓ(q)‾\overline{V_{\Gamma}(q)} be the Q‾\overline{\mathbb{Q}}-vector space spanned by the real numbers

log⁡Γ(aq),1≤a≤q,(a,q)=1.\log\Gamma\left(\frac{a}{q}\right),\qquad 1\leq a\leq q,\qquad (a,q)=1.

Gun–Ram Murty–Rath conjecture. The dimension of VΓ(q)‾\overline{V_{\Gamma}(q)} is

dim⁡Q‾VΓ(q)‾=ϕ(q).\dim_{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}}\overline{V_{\Gamma}(q)}=\phi(q).

This conjecture concerns the algebraic linear independence of logarithms of gamma values at reduced rational arguments and is relevant to the arithmetic nature of special values of derivatives of LL-series and generalized Stieltjes constants. Its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
