Iterative applications of M applied to any starting complex point z (except for the singular value -1+0*i) rapidly converge to z0. The convergence, and the existence of this limit, justify the expression used in the name. It is easy to show that, close to z0, the convergence is exponential, with the error decreasing approximately by a factor of abs(z0/(1+z0))=0.4571... per iteration. %C A272875 The imaginary part and the modulus of this complex constant are in A272876 and A272877, respectively. %H A272875 Stanislav Sykora, <a href="/A272875/b272875.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..2000</a> %F A272875 z0 = a+A272876*i satisfies the equations (1+z0)^i = z0, (1+z0)*z0^i = 1. %e A272875 0.6738813311078755157802311904681019338764503347933725454899813516... %t A272875 RealDigits[Re[z /.
