We present a new completely effective proof of the Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem based on algebraic independence methods. Although it is slightly weaker than the best known estimate due to A. Sert, it improves the best estimate due to M.…
The famous result of Lindemann and Weierstrass says that if $a_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{n}$ are distinct algebraic numbers, then $e^{a_{1}},e^{a_{2}},\ldots,e^{a_{n}}$ are linearly independent complex numbers over the field…
$E$-functions were introduced by Siegel in 1929 to generalize Diophantine properties of the exponential function. After developments of Siegel's methods by Shidlovskii, Nesterenko and Andr\'e, Beukers proved in 2006 an optimal result on the…
For a lattice \Lambda in the complex plane, let K_{\Lambda} be the field of \Lambda-elliptic functions. For two relatively prime integers p (respectively q) greater than 1, consider the endomorphisms \psi (resp. \phi) of K_{\Lambda} given…
Linear forms in logarithms over connected commutative algebraic groups over the algebraic numbers field have been studied widely. However, the theory of linear forms in logarithms over noncommutative algebraic groups have not been developed…
We prove several new results of Ax-Lindemann type for semiabelian varieties over the algebraic closure K of C(t), making heavy use of the Galois theory of logarithmic differential equations. Using related techniques, we also give a…
For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…
In this paper, we establish the linear independence of values of the $q$-analogue of the exponential function, $E_q(x)$ and its derivatives at specified algebraic arguments, when $q$ is a Pisot-Vijayraghavan number. We also deduce similar…
We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…
It is expected that Schanuel's Conjecture contains all ``reasonable" statements that can be made on the values of {\em the exponential function}. In particular it implies the Lindemann-Weierstrass Theorem and the Conjecture on algebraic…
We wish to report here on a recent approach to the non-commutative calculus on $q$-Minkowski space which is based on the reflection equations with no spectral parameter. These are considered as the expression of the invariance (under the…
This paper centers around proving variants of the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass (ALW) theorem for analytic functions which satisfy Schwarzian differential equations. In previous work, the authors proved the ALW theorem for the uniformizers of…
The grouplike elements of a coalgebra over a field are known to be linearly independent over said field. Here we prove three variants of this result. One is a generalization to coalgebras over a commutative ring (in which case the linear…
Selfdual representations of any group fall into two classes when they are irreducible: those which carry a symmetric bilinear form, and the others which carry an alternating bilinear form. The Langlands correspondence, which matches the…
We prove the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem with derivatives for the uniformizing functions of genus zero Fuchsian groups of the first kind. Our proof relies on differential Galois theory, monodromy of linear differential equations, the…
Let $G$ be a locally compact group. We examine the problem of determining when nonzero functions in $L^2(G)$ have linearly independent translations. In particular, we establish some results for the case when $G$ has an irreducible, square…
Let C be an algebraically closed field and X a projective curve over C. Consider an ordinary linear differential equation, or a linear differ- ence equation, with coefficients in the field of rational functions of X, and assume that its…
We prove, in a quantitative form, linear independence results for values of a certain class of q-series, which generalize classical q-hypergeometric series. These results refine our recent estimates.
Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension. Let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_r$ be $r\geq 1$ distinct characters of the Galois group with the associated Artin L-functions $L(s,\chi_1),\ldots, L(s,\chi_r)$. Let $m\geq 0$. We prove that the…
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…
