Hypergeometric rational approximations to $\zeta(4)$

2019 
We give a new hypergeometric construction of rational approximations to $\zeta(4)$, which absorbs the earlier one from 2003 based on Bailey's ${}_9F_8$ hypergeometric integrals. With the novel ingredients we are able to get a better control of arithmetic and produce a record irrationality measure for $\zeta(4)$.
