Transcendence of Generalized Euler Constants

&
Pages 48-54 | Published online: 13 Dec 2017
 

Abstract

We consider a class of analogues of Euler's ᵞ constant and use Baker's theory of linear forms in logarithms to study its arithmetic properties. In particular, we show that with at most one exception, all of these analogues are transcendental.
