The purpose of this paper is to combine classical methods from transcendental number theory with the technique of restriction to real scalars. We develop a conceptual approach relating transcendence properties of algebraic groups to results…
The famous result of Lindemann and Weierstrass says that if $a_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{n}$ are distinct algebraic numbers, then $e^{a_{1}},e^{a_{2}},\ldots,e^{a_{n}}$ are linearly independent complex numbers over the field…
We prove transcendence of the Hecke-Mahler series $\sum_{n=0}^\infty f(\lfloor n\theta+\alpha \rfloor) \beta^{-n}$, where $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a non-constant polynomial $\alpha$ is a real number, $\theta$ is an irrational real…
The primary aim of Hilbert's proof theory was to establish the consistency of classical mathematics using finitary means only. Hilbert's strategy for doing this was to eliminate the infinite (in the form of unbounded quantifiers) from…
A new elementary proof of the prime number theorem presented recently in the framework of a scale invariant extension of the ordinary analysis is re-examined and clarified further. Both the formalism and proof are presented in a much more…
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…
We prove over fields of power series the analogues of several Diophantine approximation results obtained over the field of real numbers. In particular we establish the power series analogue of Kronecker's theorem for matrices, together with…
In this survey, we present five different proofs for the transcendence of Kempner's number, defined by the infinite series $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{2^{2^n}}$. We take the opportunity to mention some interesting ideas and methods that…
Let $\mathscr{P}_\mathbb{Q}=\{ \alpha^n \; : \; \alpha \in \mathbb{Q}, \; n \ge 2\}$ be the set of rational perfect powers, and let $S \subseteq \mathscr{P}_\mathbb{Q}$ be a finite subset. We prove the existence of a polynomial $f_S \in…
In the present paper and as an application of Roth's theorem concerning the rational approximation of algebraic numbers, we give a sufficient condition that will assure us that a series of positive rational terms is a transcendental number.…
In the present paper and as an application of Roth's theorem concerning the rational approximation of algebraic numbers, we give a sufficient condition that will assure us that a sum, product and quotient of some series of positive rational…
An abstract theory of Fourier series in locally convex topological vector spaces is developed. An analog of Fej\'{e}r's theorem is proved for these series. The theory is applied to distributional solutions of Cauchy-Riemann equations to…
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 $S(f)$…
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…
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…
Algebraic power series are formal power series which satisfy a univariate polynomial equation over the polynomial ring in n variables. This relation determines the series only up to conjugacy. Via the Artin-Mazur theorem and the implicit…
In the past, empirical evidence has been presented that Hilbert series of symplectic quotients of unitary representations obey a certain universal system of infinitely many constraints. Formal series with this property have been called…
In this note, we give examples of formal power series satisfying certain conditions that cannot be realized as Hilbert series of finitely generated modules. This answers to the negative a question raised in a recent article by the second…
In this paper we show how to apply various techniques and theorems (including Pincherle's theorem, an extension of Euler's formula equating infinite series and continued fractions, an extension of the corresponding transformation that…
For any power series $a(t)$ with exponentially bounded nonnegative integer coefficients we suggest a simple construction of a finitely generated monomial associative algebra $R$ with Hilbert series $H(R,t)$ very close to $a(t)$. If $a(t)$…
