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.…
We prove an analogue of the Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem (that the exponentials of Q-linearly independent algebraic numbers are algebraically independent) for commutative algebraic groups G without unipotent quotients, over function…
In this paper, we study linear forms \[\lambda = \beta_1\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_1}+\cdots+\beta_m\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_m},\] where $\alpha_i$ and $\beta_i$ are algebraic numbers. An explicit lower bound for the absolute value of $\lambda$ is…
I propose a proof of the existence of the existence of eigenvectors and eigenvalues in the spirit of Argand's proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra. The proof only relies on Weierstrass's theorem, the definition of the inverse of a…
The hyperbolic Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass conjecture is a functional algebraic independence statement for the uniformizing map of an arithmetic variety. In this paper we provide a proof of this conjecture, generalizing previous work of…
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…
$E$-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…
Let $(i,j)\in \mathbb{N}\times \mathbb{N}_{\geq2}$ and $S_{i,j}$ be an infinite subset of positive integers including all prime numbers in some arithmetic progression. In this paper, we prove the linear independence over $\mathbb{Q}$ of the…
Let $\theta_3(\tau)=1+2\sum_{\nu=1}^{\infty} q^{\nu^2}$ with $q=e^{i\pi \tau}$ denote the Thetanullwert of the Jacobi theta function \[\theta(z|\tau) \,=\,\sum_{\nu=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{\pi i\nu^2\tau + 2\pi i\nu z} \,.\] Moreover, let…
Elliptic curves are fundamental objects in number theory and algebraic geometry, whose points over a field form an abelian group under a geometric addition law. Any elliptic curve over a field admits a Weierstrass model, but prior formal…
Given any two rational numbers $r_1$ and $r_2$, a necessary and sufficient condition is established for the three numbers $1$, $\cos (\pi r_1)$, and $\cos (\pi r_2)$ to be rationally independent. Extending a classical fact sometimes…
Let $H_n =\sum\limits_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k}$ be the $n$-th harmonic number. Euler extended it to complex arguments and defined $H_r$ for any complex number $r$ except for the negative integers. In this paper, we give a new proof of the…
This note presents an analytic technique for proving the linear independence of certain small subsets of real numbers over the rational numbers. The applications of this test produce simple linear independence proofs for the subsets of…
Our (weak) conjecture claims that a finite dimensional Lie algebra ${\bf g}$ over the field of complex numbers is semi-simple iff the Leibniz homology vanishes in positive dimensions $HL_i({\bf g})=0$, $i>0$. We will indicate a mistake in…
We present a self-contained development of the Weierstrass theory of those analytic functions (single-valued or multiform) which admit an algebraic addition theorem. We review the history of the theory and present detailed proofs of the…
Consider some non-zero complex numbers $a_i, b_i, c_i, d_i$ with $1 \leq i \leq n$ and the associated classical Lotka-Volterra systems \[ \begin{cases} x' = a_i xy + b_i y \newline y' = c_i xy + d_i y \text{ .} \end{cases} \] We show that…
For x,y in R (where R denotes the real numbers) and f in L^2(R), define (x,y)f(t) = e^{2 pi i yt}f(t+x) and if L is a subset of R^2, define S(f,L) = {(x,y)f | (x,y) in L}. It has been conjectured that if f is not 0, then S(f,L) is linearly…
We study real numbers defined by multidimensional automatic arrays weighted by multiplicatively independent bases. Let $a_1, \dots, a_r\geq 2$ be integers such that $\log a_1, \dots, \log a_r$ are $\mathbb Q$-linearly independent. Given…
