Quaternionic Lehmer conjecture

From papers

Let P(x)Z[x]P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x] be a monic irreducible polynomial, and let mH(P)m_{\mathbb{H}}(P) denote its quaternionic Mahler measure. Quaternionic Lehmer conjecture. There is a constant cc such that, for every monic irreducible polynomial P(x)Z[x]P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x],

mH(P)c.m_{\mathbb{H}}(P)\geq c.

This is the quaternionic analogue of Lehmer's question about a positive lower bound for the Mahler measures of monic irreducible integer polynomials. The supplied source does not indicate whether the conjecture has been resolved.
