Lehmer's Mahler measure problem

Let M(f) denote the Mahler measure of f. There exists a constant μ>1 such that for any f(x)∈ℤ[x], M(f)>1 → M(f)≥μ.

Mathematical statement

Statement artifacts, not proofs

These records expose exact Lean propositions and statement-only wrappers. Defining a proposition does not supply a proof of it. A placeholder-bearing target also contains no proof. Elaboration checks syntax and types; it does not certify that a formalization perfectly captures every nuance of the informal problem.
