Guys I need help. I was wondering if J.simons and de.werger's application of baker's theory on linear forms of logarithms could be applied to a rather different equation describing collatz map in one equation, using similar logic used by C.Bohm and G.sontacchi's criterion for loop in collatz. As I do not have a clear grasp at transcendental number theory, Can anyone tell me if this line of inquiry is even appropriate?
