Ranks of matrices of logarithms of algebraic numbers. I: The theorems of Baker and Waldschmidt-Masser (Q6179074)

Let \(n\) be a positive integer. Set \( L=\{ x\in\mathbb C: e^x\in\overline{\mathbb Q}\}\). The author proves that if \(x_1,\dots ,x_n, 2\pi i\in L\) are linearly independent over \(\mathbb Q\) then they are linearly independent over \(\overline{\mathbb Q}\). This is connected with the theorem of Baker. Then he proves the analog of this theorem for \(p\)-adic numbers. Finally, he proves an analog of conjecture of Schanuel, a theorem of Waldschmidt among other results.
