Chatterjee–Garg linear independence conjecture for generalized Stieltjes constants

About 2 years old · traced to

Let q>1q>1 be any positive algebraic number and let b≥3b\geq 3 be any integer. The numbers

{1,γ0(q,ab):1≤a<b,(a,b)=1}\left\{1,\gamma_0\left(q,\frac{a}{b}\right):1\leq a<b,\\ (a,b)=1\right\}

are φ(b)+1\varphi(b)+1 real numbers.

Chatterjee–Garg conjecture. The numbers

{1,γ0(q,ab):1≤a<b,(a,b)=1}\left\{1,\gamma_0\left(q,\frac{a}{b}\right):1\leq a<b,\\ (a,b)=1\right\}

are linearly independent over the field of rationals.

This conjecture concerns the linear independence of special values of the qq-analogue of the generalized Stieltjes constants at reduced rational arguments. Its status is not specified in the supplied text.
