We generalize Gel'fond's transcendence criterion to the context of a sequence of polynomials whose first derivatives take small values on large subsets of a fixed subgroup of the multiplicative group C* of the field of complex numbers.
A small value estimate is a statement providing necessary conditions for the existence of certain sequences of non-zero polynomials with integer coefficients taking small values at points of an algebraic group. Such statements are desirable…
We give conditions on a finite set of series of rational numbers to ensure that they are algebraically independent. Specialising our results to polynomials of lower degree, we also obtain new results on irrationality and $mathbb{Q}$-linear…
For a tuple $(\theta_1,..,\theta_M)$ of complex number, buliding on the approximation techniques in earlier papers of this series, this paper engages in deducing lower estimates on the transcendence degree of the field generated by…
We construct a complex entire function with arbitrary number of variables which has the following property: The infinite set consisting of all the values of all its partial derivatives of any orders at all algebraic points, including zero…
This paper deals with criteria of algebraic independence for the derivatives of solutions of rank one difference equations. The key idea consists in deriving from the commutativity of the differentiation and difference operators a sequence…
We develop a method for determining the density of squarefree values taken by certain multivariate integer polynomials that are invariants for the action of an algebraic group on a vector space. The method is shown to apply to the…
We show that, if a sequence of non-zero polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}[X_1,X_2]$ take small values at translates of a fixed point $(\xi,\eta)$ by multiples of a fixed rational point within the group $\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{C}^*$, then $\xi$…
From around 2010 onward, Elsner et al.,developed and applied a method in which the algebraic independence of n quantities x_1,...,x_n over a field is transferred to further n quantities y_1,...,y_n by means of a system of polynomials in 2n…
We give lower bounds for the degree of multiplicative combinations of iterates of rational functions (with certain exceptions) over a general field, establishing the multiplicative independence of said iterates. This leads to a…
We prove that, for generic systems of polynomial differential equations, the dependence of the solution on the initial conditions is not differentially algebraic. This answers, in the negative, a question posed by L.A. Rubel.
We prove a new general multiplicity estimate applicable to sets of functions without any assumption on algebraic independence. The multiplicity estimates are commonly used in determining measures of algebraic independence of values of…
Let $R$ denote a 2-fir. The notions of F-independence and algebraic subsets of R are defined. The decomposition of an algebraic subset into similarity classes gives a simple way of translating the F-independence in terms of dimension of…
In the present paper we develop a small cancellation theory for associative algebras with a basis of invertible elements. Namely, we study quotients of a group algebra of a free group and introduce three axioms for the corresponding…
This note considers a finite algebraic group $G$ acting on an affine variety $X$ by automorphisms. Results of Dufresne on polynomial separating algebras for linear representations of $G$ are extended to this situation. For that purpose, we…
For a large prime $p$, and a polynomial $f$ over a finite field $F_p$ of $p$ elements, we obtain a lower bound on the size of the multiplicative subgroup of $F_p^*$ containing $H\ge 1$ consecutive values $f(x)$, $x = u+1, \ldots, u+H$,…
We give an explicit upper bound for the algebraic degree and an explicit lower bound for the absolute value of the minimum of a polynomial function on a compact connected component of a basic closed semialgebraic set when this minimum is…
In this version small mistakes are corrected and the exposition is changed as suggested by the referee (to appear in Canadian Journal of Mathematics). The first main result of the paper is a criterion for a partially commutative group $\GG$…
Given an algebraic differential equation of order greater than one, it is shown that if there is any nontrivial algebraic relation amongst any number of distinct nonalgebraic solutions, along with their derivatives, then there is already…
Building on work of Davenport and Schmidt, we mainly prove two results. The first one is a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion which provides a sufficient condition for a complex or $p$-adic number $\xi$ to be algebraic in terms…
