On the linear independence of -adic polygamma values
Makoto Kawashima, Anthony Poëls
In this article, we present a new linear independence criterion for values of the -adic polygamma functions defined by J.~Diamond. As an application, we obtain the linear indepe…

On approximation to a real number by algebraic numbers of bounded degree
Anthony Poëls
In his seminal 1961 paper, Wirsing studied how well a given transcendental real number can be approximated by algebraic numbers of degree at most for a given positive…

On uniform polynomial approximation
Anthony Poëls
Let be a positive integer and a transcendental real number. We are interested in bounding from above the uniform exponent of polynomial approximation . D…
