Abstract
Let with and denote the Thetanullwert of the Jacobi theta function Moreover, let and . For every even integer , which is not a power of two, we prove constructively the existence of a nontrivial integer polynomial such that holds for all complex numbers from the upper half plane of . These polynomials are used to prove the algebraic independence of and for all algebraic numbers with . Combining this with former results of the authors, it is shown that for such algebraic the numbers and are algebraically independent over for every integer . A result on the algebraic dependence over of the three numbers , , and for integers is also presented.
