Source abstract

We introduce two independent numerator exponents into the Zeilberger--Zudilin integral and specialize them to A1=A2=18572785. A_1=A_2=\frac{1857}{2785}. The resulting integer linear forms in 11 and ππ prove μ(π)<7.101862832357. μ(π)<7.101862832357. This lowers the Zeilberger--Zudilin upper bound 7.1032053341377.103205334137\ldots by more than 0.0013425017800.001342501780; the difference between the unrounded bounds is 0.00134250178065090.0013425017806509\ldots, approximately 0.01890%0.01890\%. The same parameter point is a strict two-dimensional local minimizer of the explicit auxiliary upper-bound function in its admissible arithmetic chamber. This is a local statement about that function, not a claim that the point is a global optimizer among all constructions.
