Abstract: In this paper we generalize Nesterenko's criterion to the case where the small linear forms have an oscillating behaviour (for instance given by the saddle point method). This criterion provides both a lower bound for the dimension of the vector space spanned over the rationals by a family of real numbers, and a measure of simultaneous approximation to these numbers (namely, an upper bound for the irrationality exponent if 1 and only one other number are involved). As an application, we prove an explicit measure of simultaneous approximation to $zeta(5)$, $zeta(7)$, $zeta(9)$, and $zeta(11)$, using Zudilin's proof that at least one of these numbers is irrational.
