Lehmer's conjecture for Hermitian matrices over the Eisenstein and Gaussian integers

Number Theory 2013-09-10 v1

Abstract

We solve Lehmer's problem for a class of polynomials arising from Hermitian matrices over the Eisenstein and Gaussian integers, that is, we show that all such polynomials have Mahler measure at least Lehmer's number \tau_0 = 1.17628... .
