Abstract

Euler's constant γ, also known as the Euler-Mascheroni constant, remains one of the most elusive constants in mathematics. Despite extensive study, its irrationality is still unproven, and Apéry-like approximations of it are remarkably scarce. We present a novel identity that expresses γ in terms of a Meijer G-function and its first few derivatives. This identity is then generalized and used to systematically generate infinitely many Apéry-like approximations of γ using a Conservative Matrix Field construction based on the Meijer G-function.
