Schneider–Lang–Ramachandra's exponential conjecture

About 24 years old · traced to

Let MM be a 2×22\times2 matrix whose entries are logarithms of algebraic numbers. Assume that the rows of MM are linearly independent over Q{\mathbb Q} and that its columns are linearly independent over Q{\mathbb Q}.

Schneider–Lang–Ramachandra's exponential conjecture. Under these assumptions, the determinant of MM is nonzero.

The source invokes this conjecture to derive the cubic totally real norm-one torus case of the torus analogue of Mazur's conjecture. It is presented as a well-known conjecture in transcendental number theory and is not established in the paper.
