This module adds the Euler-Mascheroni constant γ to the Recognition Science constants collection. It records the classical limit definition together with positivity, numerical bounds, and an irrationality conjecture. Workers who embed standard mathematical constants into RS-native units cite these entries for consistency checks. The module is purely definitional with supporting lemmas.

claim$γ = lim_{n→∞} (H_n - ln n) ≈ 0.5772$

background

The upstream Constants module supplies the RS time quantum τ₀ = 1 tick. This module extends that collection by importing the Euler-Mascheroni constant, defined exactly as the limit of the difference between the nth harmonic number and the natural logarithm. In the RS setting, constants are carried in native units tied to the forcing chain and the phi-ladder; γ enters through its appearance in harmonic asymptotics and logarithmic integrals.

proof idea

This is a definition module, no proofs.

why it matters in Recognition Science

The module supplies γ for the broader Constants framework. It records the standard definition and basic properties that later results may invoke when comparing RS-derived constants (such as those fixed by T5 J-uniqueness or T6 phi) against classical mathematical constants.
