The irrationality measure of \(\pi\) is at most 7.103205334137…. (English) Zbl 1456.11129

The main result of this paper is that the irrationality measure exponent of the number \(\pi\) is less than \(7.103205334138\). The proof uses complex analysis, is based on clever calculating of special integral and is in the spirit of Salikov.
