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…

Let $f$ be an $E$-function (in Siegel's sense) not of the form $e^{\beta z}$, $\beta \in \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and let $\log$ denote any fixed determination of the complex logarithm. We first prove that there exists a finite set $S(f)$…

We use recurrences of integrals to give new and elementary proofs of the irrationality of pi, tan(r) for all nonzero rational r, and cos(r) for all nonzero rational r^2. Immediate consequences to other values of the elementary…

In this note, we give a simple proof that the values of the trigonometric functions at any nonzero rational number are transcendental numbers.

Attempting to create a general framework for studying new results on transcendental numbers, this paper begins with a survey on transcendental numbers and transcendence, it then presents several properties of the transcendental numbers $e$…

We give a brief history of transcendental number theory, including Schanuel's conjecture (S). Assuming (S), we prove that if z and w are complex numbers, not 0 or 1, with z^w and w^z algebraic, then z and w are either both rational or both…

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…

A transcendental function usually returns transcendental values at algebraic points. The (algebraic) exceptions form the so-called \emph{exceptional set}, as for instance the unitary set $\{0\}$ for the function $f(z) = e^z \,$, according…

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…

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…

Let $b$ be an algebraic number with $|b|>1$ and $\mathcal{H}$ a finite set of algebraic numbers. We study the transcendence of numbers of the form $\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{a_n}{b^n}$ where $a_n \in \mathcal{H}$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We…

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…

While the distribution of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function constitutes a central theme in Mathematics, nothing is known about the algebraic nature of these non-trivial zeros. In this article, we study the transcendental…

In this paper, we show the existence of a transcendental function $f\in\mathbb{Z}\{z\}$ with coefficients that are almost all bounded such that $f$ and all its derivatives assume algebraic values at algebraic points. Furthermore, we…

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…

We consider the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann $\zeta$-function and two classes of $L$-functions; Dirichlet $L$-functions and those based on level one modular forms. We show that there are an infinite number of zeros on the critical line…

To decide upon the arithmetic nature of some numbers may be a non-trivial problem. Some cases are well know, for example exp(1) and W(1), where W is the Lambert function, are transcendental numbers. The Tsallis q-exponential, e_q (z), and…

Euler gave recipes for converting alternating series of two types, I and II, into equivalent continued fractions, i.e., ones whose convergents equal the partial sums. A condition we prove for irrationality of a continued fraction then…

An irrational number $\theta$ is called Diophantine if there exist $c>0$ and $\tau < \infty$ such that $\left| \theta - \frac{p}{q} \right| \ge \frac{c}{q^\tau}$ holds for every $(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{N}$. In this paper, we…

We describe the formalisation in Coq of a proof that the numbers e and $\pi$ are transcendental. This proof lies at the interface of two domains of mathematics that are often considered separately: calculus (real and elementary complex…
