Differentially Transcendental Functions
The aim of this paper is to exhibit a method for proving that certain analytic functions are not solutions of algebraic differential equations. The method is based on model-theoretic properties of differential fields and properties of certain known transcendental differential functions, as of Γ(x). Furthermore, it also determines differential transcendency of solution of some functional equatio...
متن کاملUniform Approximations for Transcendental Functions
A heuristic method to construct uniform approximations to analytic transcendental functions is developed as a generalization of the Hermite-Padé interpolation to infinite intervals. The resulting uniform approximants are built from elementary functions using known series and asymptotic expansions of the given transcendental function. In one case (Lambert’s W function) we obtained a uniform appr...
متن کاملTranscendental Numbers and Zeta Functions
The concept of “number” has formed the basis of civilzation since time immemorial. Looking back from our vantage point of the digital age, we can agree with Pythagoras that “all is number”. The study of numbers and their properties is the mathematical equivalent of the study of atoms and their structure. It is in fact more than that. The famous physicist and Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner spoke o...
متن کاملSymbolic Expansion of Transcendental Functions
Higher transcendental function occur frequently in the calculation of Feynman integrals in quantum field theory. Their expansion in a small parameter is a non-trivial task. We report on a computer program which allows the systematic expansion of certain classes of functions. The algorithms are based on the Hopf algebra of nested sums. The program is written in C++ and uses the GiNaC library. PR...
متن کاملThe Rational-Transcendental Dichotomy of Mahler Functions
In this paper, we give a new proof of a result due to Bézivin that a D-finite Mahler function is necessarily rational. This also gives a new proof of the rationaltranscendental dichotomy of Mahler functions due to Nishioka. Using our method of 1 proof, we also provide a new proof of a Pólya-Carlson type result for Mahler functions due to Randé; that is, a Mahler function which is meromorphic in...
