We first improve the known lower bound for the absolute Zhang–Zagier measure in the general case. Then we restrict our study to totally positive algebraic integers. In this case, we are able to find six points for the related spectrum. At last, we give inequalities involving the Zhang–Zagier measure, the Mahler measure and the length of such integers.

AbstractLet $\def \xmlpi #1{}\def \mathsfbi #1{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {#1}}}\let \le =\leqslant \let \leq =\leqslant \let \ge =\geqslant \let \geq =\geqslant \def \Pr {\mathit {Pr}}\def \Fr {\mathit {Fr}}\def \Rey {\mathit {Re}}P(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $d$ with zeros $\alpha _1, \ldots, \alpha _d$. Stulov and Yang [‘An elementary inequality about the Mahler measure’, Involve6(4) (2013), 393–397] defined the total distance of$P$ as ${\rm td}(P)=\sum _{i=1}^{d} | | \alpha _i| -1|$. In this paper, using the method of explicit auxiliary functions, we study the spectrum of the total distance for totally positive algebraic integers and find its five smallest points. Moreover, for totally positive algebraic integers, we establish inequalities comparing the total distance with two standard measures and also the trace. We give numerical examples to show that our bounds are quite good. The polynomials involved in the auxiliary functions are found by a recursive algorithm.

AbstractThe Mahler measure M (α) of an algebraic integer α is the product of the moduli of the conjugates of α which lie outside the unit circle. A number α is reciprocal if α- 1 is a conjugate of α. We give two constructions of reciprocal a for which M (α) is non-reciprocal producing examples of any degree n of the form 2h with h odd and h ≥ 3, or else of the form with s ≥ 2. We give explicit examples of degrees 10, 14 and 20.
