## Abstract Suppose that {__R~n~__}__n__β₯0 is a linear recursive sequence and __d__ β₯ 2 is an integer. Under suitable conditions on {__R~n~__} and __d__ we show that and similarly constructed numbers are transcendental. Special attention is given to the case of binary recurrences.
Duverney and Nishioka [D. Duverney, Ku. Nishioka, An inductive method for proving the transcendence of certain series, Acta Arith. 110 (4) (2003) 305-330] studied the transcendence of k 0 , where E k (z), F k (z) are polynomials, Ξ± is an algebraic number, and r is an integer greater than 1, using a
