Abstract

Let I\mathbb{I} denote an imaginary quadratic field or the field Q\mathbb{Q} of rational numbers and ZI\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}} its ring of intergers. We shall prove an explicit Baker type lower bound for ZI\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}-linear form of the numbers \begin{equation}\label{1} 1,\ e^{\alpha_1},...,\ e^{\alpha_m},\quad m\ge 2, \end{equation} where α0=0\alpha_0=0, α1,...,αm\alpha_1,...,\alpha_m, are m+1m+1 different numbers from the field I\mathbb{I}. Our work gives gives some improvements to the existing explicit versions of of Baker's work about exponential values at rational points. In particilar, dependences on mm are improved.
