Linear independence of 1, Li₁ and Li₂

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2420487





Let \(k\) be a positive integer and let \(x\) be a rational number such that \(\mid x\mid <1\). Let \(\mathrm{Li}_k(x) =\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac {x^n}{n^k}\) be a polylogarithm of order \(k\). The paper deals with the linear independence measure of the numbers \(1\), \(\mathrm{Li}_1(x)\) and \(\mathrm{Li}_2(x)\) for special rational numbers \(x\). The proofs make use several previous results of authors and are based on the saddle-point method.
