COMMENTS
Deshouillers and Iwaniec (2008) proved that the sequence of geometric mean values of the Euler totient function, A001088(n)^(1/n) = (Product_{k=1..n} phi(k))^(1/n), is uniformly distributed modulo 1 if and only if this constant is irrational. They noted that Richard Bumby showed that if it is rational, then its denominator has at least 20 decimal digits.
