Transcendence and linear relations of 1-periods / Annette Huber, Gisbert Wüstholz.

This work answers long-standing open questions in transcendence theory and finalises the theory of linear relations of 1-periods. It serves as a detailed and modern introduction for graduate students and young researchers to the beautiful world of transcendence. The authors include foundational mate...
