In this note we prove algebraic independence results for the values of a special class of Mahler functions. In particular, the generating functions of Thue-Morse, regular paperfolding and Cantor sequences belong to this class, and we obtain…

We prove several theorems concerning arithmetic properties of Stern polynomials defined in the following way: $B_{0}(t)=0, B_{1}(t)=1, B_{2n}(t)=tB_{n}(t)$, and $B_{2n+1}(t)=B_{n}(t)+B_{n+1}(t)$. We study also the sequence…

Here we propose a survey on Mahler's theory for transcendence and algebraic independence focusing on certain applications to the arithmetic of periods of Anderson t-motives.

We show that $T_p(z)=\prod_{j=1}^{\infty}(1-z^{p^{j}})^{-1/p^{j}}$ is transcendental over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}(z)$, and establish the transcendence of its values at nonzero algebraic points inside the unit disk. Furthermore, we obtain an…

We study a recently introduced base $b$ polynomial analog of Stern's diatomic sequence, which generalizes Stern polynomials of Klavar, Dilcher, Ericksen, Mansour, Stolarsky, and others. We lift some basic properties of base $2$ Stern…

In this paper we construct an entire function of two variables having the property that its values and its partial derivatives of any order at any distinct algebraic points are algebraically independent. Such an entire function is generated…

This is the second part of a work devoted to the study of linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendence and algebraic independence. From the lifting theorem obtained in the first part, we first derive a…

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…

Let $B_{n}(t)$ be a $n$-th Stern polynomial and let $e(n)=\op{deg}B_{n}(t)$ be its degree. In this note we continue our study started in \cite{Ul} of the arithmetic properties of the sequence of Stern polynomials and the sequence…

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…

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…

The classical Stern sequence of positive integers was extended to a polynomial sequence $S_n(\lambda)$ by Klav\v{z}ar et. al. by defining $S_0(\lambda) = 0$, $S_1(\lambda) = 1$, and $$S_{2n}(\lambda) = \lambda S_n(\lambda),\quad…

We investigate the Stern polynomials defined by $B_0 ( t ) =0,B_1 ( t ) =1$, and for $n \geq 2$ by the recurrence relations $B_{2n}( t) =tB_{n}( t) ,$ $B_{2n+1}( t) =B_n( t) +B_{n+1}( t) $. We prove that all possible rational roots of that…

We introduce symmetrizing operators of the polynomial ring $A[x]$ in the varible $x$ over a ring $A$. When $A$ is an algebra over a field $k$ these operators are used to characterize the monic polynomials $F(x)$ of degree $n$ in $A[x]$ such…

The paper studies algebraic independence of certain reciprocal sums of Fibonacci and Lucas sequences. Also more general binary recurrences are considered. The main tool is Mahler's method reducing the investigation of the algebraic…

We present a new method for algebraic independence results in the context of Mahler's method. In particular, our method uses the asymptotic behaviour of a Mahler function $f(z)$ as $z$ goes radially to a root of unity to deduce algebraic…

We give an upper bound for the zero order of the difference between a Mahler function and an algebraic function. This complements estimates of Nesterenko, Nishioka, and T\"opfer, among others, who considered polynomials evaluated at Mahler…
