Evaluations of the areal Mahler measure of multivariable polynomials

Number Theory 2023-06-29 v1

Abstract

We exhibit some nontrivial evaluations of the areal Mahler measure of multivariable polynomials, defined by Pritsker [Pri08] by considering the integral over the product of unit disks instead of the unit torus as in the standard case. As in the case of the classical Mahler measure, we find examples yielding special values of LL-functions.
