COMMENTS
Note that in the Reference P. Erdös and G. Szegö the numerical value of the Zolotarev-Schur constant is given (due to roundings) in the biased form 0.3124... - Heinz-Joachim Rack, Oct 03 2017
Named after the Russian mathematicians Yegor Ivanovich Zolotarev (1847-1878) and Issai Schur (1875-1941). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 15 2021
