Strong four exponentials implies that no algebraic multiple of is a logarithm
ProvedDiazModulus.recip_pi_not_log_of_sfeThe strong four exponentials conjecture implies DiazModulus.recip_pi_not_log: that no non-zero algebraic has a logarithm of an algebraic number.
The configuration. Write and suppose is algebraic. Apply the strong four exponentials conjecture to
The four products are , , , and . All four lie in : the first by definition; because is algebraic; by the assumption being contradicted; and because it is algebraic, and is a -vector space containing . That contradicts the conjecture, provided both rows are -linearly independent.
What supplies the independence, and it is not -transcendence. Both and are independent as soon as and are transcendental, and Hermite–Lindemann alone gives both — no separate input on the transcendence of is needed. For : it is non-zero, and if it were algebraic then would be transcendental. For : it is non-zero since , and if it were algebraic then would be transcendental, against the assumption. Hermite–Lindemann is available on this mission as the Proved node DiazModulus.hermite_lindemann_holds, so it is discharged rather than carried, and the strong four exponentials conjecture is the only hypothesis this node retains.
What it is for. DiazModulus.recip_pi_not_log is open and two further open leaves of Diaz's modulus conjecture reduce to it. This node records exactly what strength would settle it, and pins that strength to a named conjecture rather than to a vague appeal. It does not make the parent easier: the strong four exponentials conjecture is open, and is itself the assumption the whole modulus conjecture currently rests on.
