歐拉-馬斯刻若尼常數主要應用於數論 。
該常數最先由瑞士 數學家萊昂哈德·歐拉 在1735年發表的文章De Progressionibus harmonicus observationes 中定義。歐拉曾經使用
C
{\displaystyle C}
作為它的符號,並計算出了它的前6位小數。1761年他又將該值計算到了16位小數。1790年,意大利 數學家洛倫佐·馬斯凱羅尼 引入了
γ
{\displaystyle \gamma }
作為這個常數的符號,並將該常數計算到小數點後32位。但後來的計算顯示他在第20位的時候出現了錯誤。
目前尚不知道該常數是否為有理數 ,但是分析表明如果它是一個有理數,那麼它的分母位數將超過10242080 。[ 2]
