On the Arithmetic Behavior of Liouville Numbers under Rational Maps

Abstract

In 1972, Alnia\c{c}ik proved that every strong Liouville number is mapped into the set of UmU_m-numbers, for any non-constant rational function with coefficients belonging to an mm-degree number field. In this paper, we generalize this result by providing a larger class of Liouville numbers (which, in particular, contains the strong Liouville numbers) with this same property (this set is sharp is a certain sense).
