Wu–Zhang's conjecture on extremal reciprocal algebraic integers

About 8 years old · traced to

Let α\alpha be a reciprocal algebraic integer that is not a root of unity, and let d=deg⁡(α)≥2d=\deg(\alpha)\geq 2. Let mrd(d)\mathrm{mr}^d(d) denote the relevant degree-dd extremal reciprocal house quantity used in the source. Wu–Zhang's conjecture.

mrd(d)≥mr20(20),\mathrm{mr}^d(d)\geq \mathrm{mr}^{20}(20),

and, if 10∤d10\nmid d,

mrd(d)≥mr12(12).\mathrm{mr}^d(d)\geq \mathrm{mr}^{12}(12).

The conjecture is presented as being supported by the paper's computed tables and is attributed to Wu and Zhang. No proof or disproof is supplied here.
