We prove the transcendence results for the infinite product , where E k (x), F k (x) are polynomials, Ξ± is an algebraic number, and r 2 is an integer. As applications, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for transcendence of β k=0 (1 ), where F n and L n are Fibonacci numbers and Lucas num
As an application of Roth's theorem concerning the rational approximation of algebraic numbers, a sufficiency condition is derived for a series of positive rational terms to converge to a transcendental number. This condition is then used to obtain similar sufficiency conditions that exist within th
We give transcendence measures for almost all elements of F q ((1ΓT )), the field of formal power series in 1ΓT over a finite field F q with q elements. 1996 Academic Press, Inc. where log q x means the logarithmic function with base q. Then our main result is stated as follows.
