Shidlovskii has given a linear independence measure of values of $E$-functions with rational Taylor coefficients at a rational point, not a singularity of the underlying differential system satisfied by these $E$-functions. Recently,…

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 well known that value at a non-zero algebraic number of each of the functions $e^{x}, \ln x, \sin x, \cos x, \tan x, \csc x, \sec x, \cot x, \sinh x,$ $ \cosh x,$ $ \tanh x,$ and $\coth x$ is transcendental number (see Theorem 9.11 of…

We show that the iterative logarithm of each non-linear entire function is differentially transcendental over the ring of entire functions, and we give a sufficient criterion for such an iterative logarithm to be differentially…

The arithmetic nature of values of some functions of a single variable, particularly, $\sin{z}$, $\cos{z}$, $\sinh{z}$, $\cosh{z}$, $e^z$, and $\ln{z}$, is a relevant topic in number theory. For instance, all those functions return…

We give a new proof of Fatou's theorem: {\em if an algebraic function has a power series expansion with bounded integer coefficients, then it must be a rational function.} This result is applied to show that for any non--trivial completely…

In 1906, Maillet proved that given a non-constant rational function $f$, with rational coefficients, if $\xi$ is a Liouville number, then so is $f(\xi)$. Motivated by this fact, in 1984, Mahler raised the question about the existence of…

E. Maillet proved that the set of Liouville numbers is preserved under rational functions with rational coefficients. Based on this result, a problem posed by Kurt Mahler is to investigate whether there exist entire transcendental functions…

In a recent paper with Sprang and Zudilin, the following result was proved: if $a$ is large enough in terms of $\varepsilon>0$, then at least $2^{(1-\varepsilon)\frac{\log a}{\log \log a}}$ values of the Riemann zeta function at odd…

For any Liouville number $\alpha$, all of the following are transcendental numbers: $\textrm{e}^\alpha$, $\log_\textrm{e}\alpha$, $\sin \alpha$, $\cos\alpha$, $\tan\alpha$, $\sinh\alpha$, $\cosh\alpha$, $\tanh\alpha$, $\arcsin\alpha$ and…

In a recent work [JNT \textbf{129}, 2154 (2009)], Gun and co-workers have claimed that the number $\,\log{\Gamma(x)} + \log{\Gamma(1-x)}\,$, $x$ being a rational number between $0$ and $1$, is transcendental with at most \emph{one} possible…

The irrationality exponent $\mu(t)$ of an irrational number t, defined using the irrationality measure $1/q^\mu$, distinguishes among non-Liouville numbers and is infinite for Liouville numbers. Using the irrationality measure $1/\beta^q$,…

E-functions are entire functions with algebraic Taylor coefficients satisfying certain arithmetic conditions, and which are also solutions of linear differential equations with rational functions coefficients. They were introduced by Siegel…

We prove that among 1 and the odd zeta values $\zeta(3)$, $\zeta(5)$, \ldots, $\zeta(s)$, at least $ 0.21 \sqrt{s}/\sqrt{\log s}$ are linearly independent over the rationals, for any sufficiently large odd integer $s$. This is the first…

In this paper possible completion $^*R_{d}$ of the Robinson non-archimedean field $^*R$ constructed by Dedekind sections. Given an class of analytic functions of one complex variable $f \in C[z]$,we investigate the arithmetic nature of the…

We show that if a Laurent series $f\in\mathbb{C}((t))$ satisfies a particular kind of linear iterative equation, then $f$ is either a rational function or it is differentially transcendental over $\mathbb{C}(t)$. This condition is more…

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…

In this paper, for a given Dirichlet character mod $N$ with $4\nmid N$, we give a lower bound of order $\sqrt{s/\log(s)}$ for the dimension of the $\mathbb{Q}(e^{2i\pi/N})$-vector space spanned by the values of its $L$-function at integers…

Let f be a G-function (in the sense of Siegel), and x be an algebraic number; assume that the value f(x) is a real number. As a special case of a more general result, we show that f(x) can be written as g(1), where g is a G-function with…

For a given l-adic sheaf F on a commutative algebraic group over a finite field k and an integer r we define the r-th local norm L-function of F at a point t in G(k) and prove its rationality. This function gives information on the sum of…
