This article initiates the study of topological transcendental fields $\FF$ which are subfields of the topological field $\CC$ of all complex numbers such that $\FF$ consists of only rational numbers and a nonempty set of transcendental…

Let $\theta=(\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_m) \in \R^m, \kappa=(\kappa_1,\ldots,\kappa_n) \in \R^n$ be two tuples of real numbers each linearly independent over $\Q$, and $T$ the transcendence degree of the field generated by $\{\exp(\theta_i…

While currently the $abc$ conjecture and work towards it remains open or is disputed, at the same time much work has been done on weaker versions, as well as on its generalisation to number fields. Given integers satisfying $a+b=c$, Stewart…

Transcendental functions, such as exponentials and logarithms, appear in a broad array of computational domains: from simulations in curvilinear coordinates, to interpolation, to machine learning. Unfortunately they are typically expensive…

Let $\mathcal{K}:=(K;+,\cdot, D, 0, 1)$ be a differentially closed field of characteristic $0$ with field of constants $C$. In the first part of the paper we explore the connection between Ax-Schanuel type theorems (predimension…

Transcendence criteria inspired by Kolberg's paper dated 1962. This is the second part of a note about Kolberg's proof that the values of the sums of a class of certain power series in x, for algebraic values of x, are transcendent. A…

Let $M$ be a random matrix chosen according to Haar measure from the unitary group $\mathrm{U}(n,\mathbb{C})$. Diaconis and Shahshahani proved that the traces of $M,M^2,\ldots,M^k$ converge in distribution to independent normal variables as…

For almost all tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ of complex numbers, a strong version of Schanuel's Conjecture is true: the $2n$ numbers $x_1,\dots,x_n, {\mathrm e}^{x_1},\dots, {\mathrm e}^{x_n}$ are algebraically independent. Similar statements…

Factorial series played a major role in Stirling's classic book "Methodus Differentialis" (1730), but now only a few specialists still use them. This article wants to show that this neglect is unjustified, and that factorial series are…

Some cases of the LFED Conjecture, proposed by the second author [Z3], for certain integral domains are proved. In particular, the LFED Conjecture is completely established for the field of fractions $k(x)$ of the polynomial algebra $k[x]$,…

We conjecture the existence of special elements in odd degree higher algebraic K-groups of number fields that are related in a precise way to the values at strictly negative integers of the derivatives of Artin L-functions of finite…

We study relative differential closure in the context of Hardy fields. Using our earlier work on algebraic differential equations over Hardy fields, this leads to a proof of a conjecture of Boshernitzan (1981): the intersection of all…

In this paper, we study some typical arithmetic properties of Euler's totient function of polynomials over finite fields. Especially, we study polynomial analogues of some classical conjectures about Euler's totient function, such as…

To obtain the Dirichlet series for complex powers of the Riemann zeta function, we define and study the basic properties of a sequence of polynomials that, used as coefficients of the respective terms of the Dirichlet series of the Riemann…

We consider the problem of solvability of linear differential equations over a differential field~$K$. We introduce a class of special differential field extensions, which widely generalizes the classical class of extensions of differential…

Schinzel's Hypothesis H is a general conjecture in number theory on prime values of polynomials that generalizes, e.g., the twin prime conjecture and Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progression. We prove an arithmetic analog of…

Surreal numbers, have a very rich and elegant theory. This class of numbers, denoted by No, includes simultaneously the ordinal numbers and the real numbers, and forms a universal huge real closed field: It is universal in the sense that…

The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…

An $H$-field is a type of ordered valued differential field with a natural interaction between ordering, valuation, and derivation. The main examples are Hardy fields and fields of transseries. Aschenbrenner and van den Dries proved…

In this paper we prove Shapiro's 1958 Conjecture on exponential polynomials, assuming Schanuel's Conjecture.
