The Duffin–Schaeffer-type conjecture for multiple zeta-star values
The Duffin–Schaeffer-type conjecture for multiple zeta-star values
Let , and let be the set of real numbers such that
for infinitely many with . The Duffin–Schaeffer-type conjecture. If
is divergent, then
This conjecture is the divergent-series counterpart to the preceding zero-one-law result, which proves measure zero when the series converges. It asks whether almost every real number in admits infinitely many approximations by multiple zeta-star values at the stated scale.
