Non-Archimedean Analysis on the Extended Hyperreal Line *Rd and the Solution of Some Very Old Transcendence Conjectures over the Field Q

Abstract

In 1980 F. Wattenberg constructed the Dedekind completion *Rd of the Robinson non-archimedean field *R and established basic algebraic properties of *Rd. In 1985 H. Gonshor established further fundamental properties of *Rd. In [4] important construction of summation of countable sequence of Wattenberg numbers was proposed and corresponding basic properties of such summation were considered. In this paper the important applications of the Dedekind completion *Rd in transcendental number theory were considered. Given any analytic function of one complex variable , we investigate the arithmetic nature of the values of at transcendental points . Main results are: 1) the both numbers and are irrational; 2) number ee is transcendental. Nontrivial generalization of the Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem is obtained.

1. Introduction

In 1873 French mathematician, Charles Hermite, proved that is transcendental. Coming as it did 100 years after Euler had established the significance of, this meant that the issue of transcendence was one mathematicians could not afford to ignore. Within 10 years of Hermite’s breakthrough, his techniques had been extended by Lindemann and used to add to the list of known transcendental numbers. Mathematician then tried to prove that other numbers such as and are transcendental too, but these questions were too difficult and so no further examples emerged till today’s time. The transcendence of has been proved in 1929 by A. O. Gel’fond.

Conjecture 1. Whether the both numbers and are irrational.

Conjecture 2. Whether the numbers and are algebraically independent.

However, the same question with and has been answered:

Theorem. (Nesterenko, 1996 [1] ) The numbers and are algebraically independent.

Throughout of 20-th century,a typical question: whether is a transcendental number for each algebraic number has been investigated and answered many authors .Modern result in the case of entire functions satisfying a linear differential equation provides the strongest results, related with Siegel’s E-functions [1] [2] , ref [1] contains references to the subject before 1998, including Siegel and functions.

2. Preliminaries. Short Outline of Dedekind Hyperreals and Gonshor Idempotent Theory

Let be the set of real numbers and a nonstandard model of [5] . is not Dedekind complete.

For example, and are bounded subsets of which have no suprema or infima in

. Possible completion of the field can be constructed by Dedekind sections [6] [7] . In [6] Wattenberg constructed the Dedekind completion of a nonstandard model of the real numbers and applied the construction to obtain certain kinds of special measures on the set of integers. Thus was established that the Dedekind com- pletion of the field is a structure of interest not for its own sake only and we establish further im- portant applications here. Important concept introduced by Gonshor [7] is that of the absorption number of an ele- ment which, roughly speaking, measures the degree to which the cancellation law fails for.

2.1. The Dedekind Hyperreals

Definition 2.1. Let be a nonstandard model of [5] and the power set of.

A Dedekind hyperreal is an ordered pair that satisfies the next conditions:

Remark 2.2. Unfortunately the set inherits some but by no means all of the algebraic structure on. For example, is not a group with respect to addition since if denotes the addition in then:

Thus is not even a ring but pseudo-ring only.

Definition 2.2. We define:

1. The additive identity (zero cut) often denoted by or simply 0 is

2. The multiplicative identity often denoted by or simply 1 is

Given two Dedekind hyperreal numbers and we define:

It is easy to see that for all

It is easy to see that is again a cut in and

Another fundamental property of cut addition is associativity:

This follows from the corresponding property of.

4. The opposite of, often denoted by or simply by, is

5. We say that the cut is positive if or negative if

The absolute value of, denoted, is, if and if

Remark 2.4. [7] . However in paper [7] H. Gonshor pointed out that the definition (2.1) in Wattenberg paper [6] is technically incorrect. Note that Wattenberg [6] defines in general by

If i.e. has no mininum, then there is no any problem with definitions (2.1) and (2.2). However if for some i.e. then according to the latter definition (2.2)

whereas the definition of requires that:

Remark 2.5. Note that in the usual treatment of Dedekind cuts for the ordinary real numbers both of the latter sets are regarded as equivalent so that no serious problem arises [7] .

2.3. Absorption Numbers in

One of standard ways of defining the completion of involves restricting oneself to subsets, which have the following property . It is well known that in this case we obtain a field. In fact the proof is essentially the same as the one used in the case of ordinary Dedekind cuts in the development of the standard real numbers, , of course, does not have the above property because no infinitesimal works.This suggests the introduction of the concept of absorption part of a number for an element of which, roughly speaking, measures how much departs from having the above property [7] .

(3.15)

Statement (i) follows from (3.15). Statement (ii) immediately follows from a statement (ii).

Lemma 3.4. [8] . For any and for any such that there exists such that

(3.16)

Proof. From Equation (3.5) one obtains

(3.17)

From Equation (3.17) by using Lemma 3.3. (ii) one obtains (3.17).

Remark 3.1. We remind now the proof of the transcendence of following Shidlovsky proof is given in his book [8] .

Theorem 3.1. The number is transcendental.

Proof. ([8] , pp. 126-129) Suppose now that is an algebraic number; then it satisfies some relation of the form

(3.18)

where integers and where Having substituted RHS of the Equation (3.5) into Equation (3.18) one obtains

(3.19)

From Equation (3.19) one obtains

(3.20)

We rewrite the Equation (3.20) for short in the form

(3.21)

We choose now the integers such that:

(3.22)

and. Note that Thus one obtains

(3.23)

and therefore

(3.24)

By using Lemma 3.4 for any such that we can choose a prime number such that:

(3.25)

From (3.25) and Equation (3.21) we obtain

(3.26)

From (3.26) and Equation (3.24) one obtains the contradiction.This contradiction finalized the proof.

3.2. The Proof of the #-Transcendene of the Numbers. We Will Divide the Proof into Four Parts

3.2.1. Part I. The Robinson Transfer of the Shidlovsky Quantities

In this subsection we will replace using Robinson transfer the Shidlovsky quantities by corresponding nonstandard quantities The properties of the nonstandard quantities one obtains directly from the pro-

perties of the standard quantities using Robinson transfer principle [4] [5] .

1. Using Robinson transfer principle [4] [5] from Equation (3.8) one obtains directly

(3.27)

From Equation (3.11) using Robinson transfer principle one obtains:

(3.28)

Using Robinson transfer principle from inequality (3.15) one obtains:

(3.29)

Using Robinson transfer principle, from Equation (3.5) one obtains:

(3.30)

Lemma 3.5. Let, then for any and for any there exists such that

(3.31)

Proof. From Equation (3.30) we obtain:

(3.32)

From Equation (3.32) and (3.29) we obtain (3.31).

3.2.2. Part II. The Wattenberg Imbedding into

In this subsection we will replace by using Wattenberg imbedding [6] and Gonshor transfer the nonstandard quantities and the nonstandard Shidlovsky quantities by correspond- ing Wattenberg quantities The properties of the Wattenberg quantities one obtains directly from the properties of the co- rresponding nonstandard quantities using Gonshor transfer principle [4] [7] .

1. By using Wattenberg imbedding from Equation (3.30) one obtains

(3.33)

2. By using Wattenberg imbedding and Gonshor transfer (see Subsection 2.9 Theorem 2.19) from Equation (3.27) one obtains

(3.34)

3. By using Wattenberg imbedding from Equation (3.28) one obtains

(3.35)

Lemma 3.6. Let then for any and for any there exists such that

(3.36)

Proof. Inequality (3.36) immediately follows from inequality (3.31) by using Wattenberg imbedding and Gonshor transfer.

3.2.3. Part III. Reduction of the Statement of e Is #-Transcendental Number to Equivalent Statement in Using Gonshor Idempotent Theory

To prove that is #-transcendental number we must show that e is not w-transcendental, i.e., there does not exist real -analytic function with rational coefficients such that

(3.37)

Suppose that e is w-transcendental, i.e., there exists an -analytic function with rational coefficients:

(3.38)

such that the equality is satisfied:

(3.39)

In this subsection we obtain an reduction of the equality given by Equation (3.39) to equivalent equality given by Equation (3). The main tool of such reduction that external countable sum defined in Subsection 2.8.

Lemma 3.7. Let and be the sum correspondingly

(3.40)

Then

Proof. Suppose there exists k such that Then from Equation (3.39) follows There- fore by Theorem 3.1 one obtains the contradiction.

Remark 3.2. Note that from Equation (3.39) follows that in generel case there is a sequence such that

(3.41)

or there is a sequence such that

(3.42)

or both sequences and with a property that is specified above exist.

Remark 3.3. We assume now for short but without loss of generelity that (3.41) is satisfied. Then from (3.41) by using Definition 2.17 and Theorem 2.14 (see Subsection 2.8) one obtains the equality [4]

(3.43)

Remark 3.4. Let and be the upper external sum defined by

(3.44)

Note that from Equation (3.43)-Equation (3.44) follows that

(3.45)

Remark 3.5. Assume that and. In this subsection we will write for a short iff absorbs, i.e.

Lemma 3.8.

Proof. Suppose there exists such that Then from Equation(3.45) one obtains

(3.46)

From Equation (3.46) by Theorem 2.11 follows that and therefore by Lemma 3.7 one obtains the contradiction.

Theorem 3.2. [4] The equality (3.43) is inconsistent.

Proof. Let us consider hypernatural number defined by countable sequence

(3.47)

From Equation (3.43) and Equation (3.47) one obtains

(3.48)

Remark 3.6. Note that from inequality (3.27) by Wattenberg transfer one obtains

(3.49)

Substitution Equation (3.30) into Equation (3.48) gives

(3.50)

Multiplying Equation (3.50) by Wattenberg hyperinteger by Theorem 2.13 (see subsec- tion 2.8) one obtains

(3.51)

By using inequality (3.49) for a given we will choose infinite prime integer such that:

(3.52)

Now using the inequality (3.49) we are free to choose a prime hyperinteger and in the Equation (3.51) for a given such that:

(3.53)

Hence from Equation (3.52) and Equation (3.53) we obtain

(3.54)

Therefore from Equations (3.51) and (3.54) by using definition (2.15) of the function given by Equation (2.20)-Equation (2.21) and corresponding basic property I (see Subsection 2.7) of the function we obtain

(3.55)

From Equation (3.55) using basic property I of the function finally we obtain the main equality

(3.56)

We will choose now infinite prime integer in Equation (3.56) such that

(3.57)

Hence from Equation (3.34) follows

(3.58)

Note that Using (3.57) and (3.58) one obtains:

(3.59)

Using Equation(3.35) one obtains

(3.60)

3.2.4. Part IV. The Proof of the Inconsistency of the Main Equality (3.56)

In this subsection we wil prove that main equality (3.56) is inconsistent. This prooff based on the Theorem 2.10 (v), see Subsection 2.6.

Lemma 3.9. The equality (3.56) under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) is inconsistent.

Proof. (I) Let us rewrite Equation (3.56) in the short form

(3.61)

where

(3.62)

From (3.59)-(3.60) follows that

(3.63)

Remark 3.7. Note that Otherwise we obtain that But the other hand from Equation (3.61) follows that But this is a contradic- tion. This contradiction completed the proof of the statement (I).

(II) Let and be the external sum correspondingly

(3.64)

Note that from Equation (3.61) and Equation (3.64) follows that

(3.65)

Lemma 3.10. Under conditions (3.59)-(3.60)

(3.66)

and

(3.67)

Proof. First note that under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) one obtains

(3.68)

Suppose that there exists an such that Then from Equation (3.65) one obtains

(3.69)

From Equation (3.69) by Theorem 2.17 one obtains

(3.70)

Thus

(3.71)

From Equation (3.71) by Theorem 2.11 follows that and therefore by Lemma 3.7 one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction finalized the proof of the Lemma 3.10.

Part (III)

Remark 3.8. (i) Note that from Equation (3.62) by Theorem 2.10 (v) follws that has the form

(3.72)

where

(3.73)

(ii) Substitution by Equation (3.72) into Equation (3.61) gives

(3.74)

Remark 3.9. Note that from (3.74) by definitions follows that

(3.75)

Remark 3.10. Note that from (3.73) by construction of the Wattenberg integer obviously follows that there exists some such that

(3.76)

Therefore

(3.77)

Note that under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) and (3.73) obviously one obtains

(3.78)

From Equation(3.74) follows that

(3.79)

Therefore

(3.80)

From (3.78) follows that

(3.81)

Note that by Theorem 2.8 (see Subsection 2.5) and Formula (3.44) one otains

(3.82)

From Equation (3.81)-Equation (3.82) follows that

(3.83)

Thus

(3.84)

and therefore

(3.85)

But this is a contradiction. This contradiction completed the proof of the Lemma 3.9.

4. Generalized Shidlovsky Quantities

In this section we remind the basic definitions of the Shidlovsky quantities, see [8] pp. 132-134.

From Equation (4.3) and Equation (4.5) one obtains

(4.10)

where By change of the variable integration in RHS of the Equation (4.10) we obtain

(4.11)

where Let us rewrite now Equation (4.11) in the following form

(4.12)

Let be a ring of the all algebraic integers. Note that [8]

(4.14)

where From Equation (4.14) one obtains

(4.15)

The polinomial is a symmetric polynomial on any system of variables where

(4.16)

It well known that [8] and therefore

(4.17)

From Equation (4.15) and Equation (4.17) one obtains

(4.18)

Therefore

(4.19)

Let be a circle wth the centre at point. We assume now that. We will designate now

(4.21)

where Note that

(4.22)

From (4.22) follows that for any there exists a prime number p such that

(4.23)

where From Equation (4.4)-Equation (4.6) follows

(4.24)

where Assume now that

(4.25)

Having substituted RHS of the Equation (4.24) into Equation (4.25) one obtains

(4.26)

From Equation (4.26) by using Equation (4.19) one obtains

(4.27)

We choose now a prime such that and Note that and therefore from Equation (4.19) and Equation (4.27) one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction com- pleted the proof.

(5.7)

where and where in (5.7) we integrate in nonstandard complex plane along contour see Picture 1 .

1. Using Robinson transfer principle [4] -[6] from Equation (5.5) and Equation (4.8) one obtains directly

(5.8)

where We choose now infinite prime such that

(5.9)

2. Using Robinson transfer principle from Equation (5.6) and Equation (4.19) one obtains directly

(5.10)

and therefore

(5.11)

3. Using Robinson transfer principle from Equation (5.7) and Equation (4.21) one obtains directly

(5.12)

where Note that there exists

(5.13)

4. From (5.13) follows that for any there exists an infinite prime such that

(5.14)

where

5. From Equation (5.5)-Equation (5.7) we obtain

(5.15)

where

Part II. The Wattenberg imbedding into

(5.16)

where We choose now an infinite prime such that

(5.17)

2. By using Wattenberg imbedding and Gonshor transfer from Equation (5.10) one obtains directly

(5.18)

and therefore

(5.19)

3. By using Wattenberg imbedding and Gonshor transfer from Equation (5.14) one obtains directly

(5.20)

4. By using Wattenberg imbedding and Gonshor transfer from Equation (5.15) one obtains directly

(5.21)

where

Part III. Main equality

Remark 5.1. Note that in this subsection we often write for a short instead For example we write

instead Equation (5.21).

Assumption 5.1. Let be a polynomials with coefficients in. Assume that for any algebraic numbers over the field: form a complete set of the roots of such that

(5.22)

Note that from Assumption 5.1 follows that algebraic numbers over the field: for any form a complete set of the roots of

(5.23)

Assumption 5.2. We assume now that there exists a sequence

(5.24)

and rational number

(5.25)

such that

(5.26)

and

(5.27)

Assumption 5.3. We assume now for a short but without loss of generality that the all numbers are real.

In this subsection we obtain an reduction of the equality given by Equation (5.27) in to some equivalent equality given by Equation (3) in. The main tool of such reduction that external countable sum defined in Subsection 2.8.

Lemma 5.1. Let and be the sum correspondingly

(5.28)

Then

Proof. Suppose there exists r such that Then from Equation (5.27) follows There- fore by Theorem 4.1 one obtains the contradiction.

Remark 5.2. Note that from Equation (5.27) follows that in generel case there is a sequence such that

(5.29)

or there is a sequence such that

(5.30)

or both sequences and with a property that is specified above exist.

Remark 5.3. We assume now for short but without loss of generelity that (5.29) is satisfied. Then from (5.29) by using Definition 2.17 and Theorem 2.14 (see Subsection 2.8) one obtains the equality [4]

(5.31)

Remark 5.4. Let and be the upper external sum defined by

Note that from Equation (5.31)-Equation (5.32) follows that

(5.33)

Remark 5.5. Assume that and In this subsection we will write for a short iff absorbs, i.e.

Lemma 5.2.

Proof. Suppose there exists such that Then from Equation (5.33) one obtains

(5.34)

From Equation (5.34) by Theorem 2.11 follows that and therefore by Lemma 5.1 one obtains the contradiction.

Theorem 5.2. [4] The equality (5.31) is inconsistent.

Proof. Let us considered hypernatural number defined by countable sequence

(5.35)

From Equation (5.31) and Equation (5.35) one obtains

(5.36)

where

(5.37)

Remark 5.6. Note that from inequality (5.12) by Gonshor transfer one obtains

(5.38)

Substitution Equation (5.21) into Equation (5.36) gives

(5.39)

Multiplying Equation (5.39) by Wattenberg hyperinteger by Theorem 2.13 (see sub- section 2.8) we obtain

(5.40)

By using inequality (5.38) for a given we will choose infinite prime integer such that:

(5.41)

Therefore from Equations (5.40) and (5.41) by using definition (2.15) of the function given by Equation (2.20)-Equation (2.21) and corresponding basic property I (see Subsection 2.7) of the function we obtain

(5.42)

From Equation (5.42) finally we obtain the main equality

(5.43)

We will choose now infinite prime integer in Equation (3.56) such that

(5.44)

Hence from Equation (5.16) follows

(5.45)

Note that Using (5.44) and (5.45) one obtains:

(5.46)

Using Equation (5.11) one obtains

(5.47)

Part IV. The proof of the inconsistency of the main equality (5.43)

In this subsection we wil prove that main equality (5.43) is inconsistent. This proof is based on the Theorem 2.10 (v), see Subsection 2.6.

Lemma 5.3. The equality (5.43) under conditions (5.46)-(5.47) is inconsistent.

Proof. (I) Let us rewrite Equation (5.43) in the short form

(5.48)

where

(5.49)

From (5.46)-(5.47) follows that

(5.50)

Remark 5.7. Note that Otherwise we obtain that

(5.51)

But the other hand from Equation (5.48) follows that

(5.52)

But this is a contradiction. This contradiction completed the proof of the statement (I).

(II) Let and be the external sum correspondingly

(5.53)

Note that from Equation (5.43) and Equation (5.53) follows that

(5.54)

Lemma 5.4. Under conditions (5.46)-(5.47)

(5.55)

and

(5.56)

Proof. First note that under conditions (5.46)-(5.47) one obtains

(5.57)

Suppose that there exists such that hen from Equation (5.54) one obtains

(5.58)

From Equation (5.58) by Theorem 2.17 one obtains

(5.59)

Thus

(5.60)

From Equation (5.60) by Theorem 2.11 follows that and therefore by Lemma 5.2 one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction finalized the proof of the Lemma 5.4.

(III)

Remark 5.8. (i) Note that from Equation (5.49) by Theorem 2.10 (v) follws that has the form

(5.61)

where

(5.62)

(ii) Substitution by Equation (5.61) into Equation (5.48) gives

(5.63)

Remark 5.9. Note that from (5.63) by definitions follows that

(5.64)

Remark 5.10. Note that from (5.62) by construction of the Wattenberg integer obviously follows that there exists some such that

(5.65)

Therefore

(5.66)

Note that under conditions (5.46)-(5.47) and (5.66) obviously one obtains

(5.67)

From Equation (5.63) follows that

(5.68)

Therefore

(5.69)

From (5.69) follows that

(5.70)

Note that from (5.70) by Theorem 2.8 (see Subsection 2.5) and Formula (5.32) one otains

(5.71)

From Equation (5.70)-Equation (5.71) follows that

(5.72)

Thus

(5.73)

and therefore

(5.74)

But this is a contradiction. This contradiction completed the proof of the Lemma 5.3.

Remark 5.11. Note that by Definition 2.18 and Theorem 2.18 from Assumption 5.1 and Assumption 5.2 follows

Theorem 5.3.The equality (5.75) is inconsistent.

Proof. The proof of the Theorem 5.3 obviously copies in main details the proof of the Theorem 5.3.

Theorem 5.3 completed the proof of the main Theorem 1.6.
