Hardback. Series: Die Grundlehren der Mathematischen Wissenschaften. Num Pages: 656 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBG; PBH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 36. Weight in Grams: 1103.
The theory of transcendental numbers is closely related to the study of diophantine approximation. This book deals with values of the usual exponential function ez: a central open problem is the conjecture on algebraic independence of logarithms of algebraic numbers. Two chapters provide complete and simplified proofs of zero estimates (due to Philippon) on linear algebraic groups.

Reviews for Diophantine Approximation on Linear Algebraic Groups
“This extensive monograph gives an excellent report on the present state of the art … . The reader having enough time and energy may learn from this carefully written book a great deal of modern transcendence theory from the very beginning. In this process, the many included exercises may be very helpful. Everybody interested in transcendence will certainly admire the ... Read more
