For x ∈ C, |x | < 1, s ∈ N, let Lis(x) be the s-th polylogarithm of x . We prove that for any non-zero algebraic number α such that |α| < 1, the Q(α)-vector space spanned by 1, Li1(α), Li2(α), . . . has infinite dimension. This result extends a previous one by Rivoal for rational α. The main tool is a method introduced by Fischler and Rivoal, which shows the coefficients of the polylogarithms in the relevant series to be the unique solution of a suitable Pade approximation problem.

A note on linear independence of polylogarithms over the rationals
• Mathematics
• 2012
In this article, we give a new lower bound for the dimension of the linear space over the rationals spanned by 1 and values of polylogarithmic functions at a non-zero rational number. Our proof usesExpand
Linear independence of odd zeta values using Siegel's lemma
We prove that among 1 and the odd zeta values ζ(3), ζ(5), . . . , ζ(s), at least 0.21 √ s/ log s are linearly independent over the rationals, for any sufficiently large odd integer s. This improvesExpand
On the linear independence of values of G-functions
Abstract We consider a G-function F ( z ) = ∑ k = 0 ∞ A k z k ∈ K 〚 z 〛 , where K is a number field, of radius of convergence R and annihilated by the G-operator L ∈ K ( z ) [ d / d z ] , and aExpand
Nesterenko’s linear independence criterion for vectors
In this paper we deduce a lower bound for the rank of a family of $$p$$p vectors in $$\mathbb {R}^k$$Rk (considered as a vector space over the rationals) from the existence of a sequence of linearExpand

In this paper we follow the approach of Bertrand–Beukers (and of Bertrand’s later work), based on differential Galois theory, to prove a very general version of Shidlovsky’s lemma that applies toExpand
Existence and symmetry of solutions for critical fractional Schrödinger equations with bounded potentials

In a recent paper with Sprang and Zudilin, the following result was proved: if $a$ is large enough in terms of $\varepsilon>0$, then at least $2^{(1-\varepsilon)\frac{\log a}{\log \log a}}$ values ofExpand
Linear independence of values of G-functions, II: outside the disk of convergence

Given any non-polynomial G -function $$F(z)=\sum _{k=0}^\infty A_kz^k$$ F ( z ) = ∑ k = 0 ∞ A k z k of radius of convergence R and in the kernel a G -operator $$L_F$$ L F , we consider the GExpand
