Contents:
PHI(tau, z) and Transcendence -- Mahler's conjecture and other transcendence results -- Algebraic independence for values of Ramanujan functions -- Some remarks in proofs of algebraic independence -- limination multihomogne -- Diophantine geometry -- Gomtrie diophantienne multiprojective -- Criteria for algebraic independence -- Upper bounds for (geometric) Hilbert functions -- Multiplicity estimates for solutions of algebraic differential equations -- Zero Estimates on Commutative Algebraic Groups -- Measures of algebraic independence for Mahler functions -- Algebraic Independence in Algebraic Groups. Part 1: Small Transcendence Degrees -- Algebraic Independence in Algebraic Groups. Part 2: Large Transcendence Degrees -- Some metric results in Transcendental Numbers Theory -- The Hilbert Nullstellensatz, Inequalities for Polynomials, and Algebraic Independence.
Summary: In the last five years there has been very significant progress in the development of transcendence theory. A new approach to the arithmetic properties of values of modular forms and theta-functions was found. The solution of the Mahler-Manin problem on values of modular function j(tau) and algebraic independence of numbers pi and e^(pi) are most impressive results of this breakthrough. The book presents these and other results on algebraic independence of numbers and further, a detailed exposition of methods created in last the 25 years, during which commutative algebra and algebraic geometry exerted strong catalytic influence on the development of the subject.
