With the same conditions, we establish a transcendental measure of $ \\sum_{n = 1}^{\\infty} 1/a_n$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-01-16T16:10:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "infinite series", "transcendence", "transcendental measure", "transcendental number", "rational approximation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
