1. Introduction
In 1873 French mathematician, Charles Hermite, proved that
is transcendental. Coming as it did 100 years after Euler had established the significance of
, this meant that the issue of transcendence was one mathematicians could not afford to ignore. Within 10 years of Hermite’s breakthrough, his techniques had been extended by Lindemann and used to add
to the list of known transcendental numbers. Mathematician then tried to prove that other numbers such as
and
are transcendental too, but these questions were too difficult and so no further examples emerged till today’s time. The transcendence of
has been proved in 1929 by A. O. Gel’fond.
Conjecture 1. Whether the both numbers
and
are irrational.
Conjecture 2. Whether the numbers
and
are algebraically independent.
However, the same question with
and
has been answered:
Theorem. (Nesterenko, 1996 [1] ) The numbers
and
are algebraically independent.
Throughout of 20-th century,a typical question: whether
is a transcendental number for each algebraic number
has been investigated and answered many authors .Modern result in the case of entire functions satisfying a linear differential equation provides the strongest results, related with Siegel’s E-functions [1] [2] , ref [1] contains references to the subject before 1998, including Siegel
and
functions.

2. Preliminaries. Short Outline of Dedekind Hyperreals and Gonshor Idempotent Theory
Let

a nonstandard model of

is not Dedekind complete.
For example,
and
are bounded subsets of
which have no suprema or infima in
. Possible completion of the field
can be constructed by Dedekind sections [6] [7] . In [6] Wattenberg constructed the Dedekind completion of a nonstandard model of the real numbers and applied the construction to obtain certain kinds of special measures on the set of integers. Thus was established that the Dedekind com- pletion
of the field
is a structure of interest not for its own sake only and we establish further im- portant applications here. Important concept introduced by Gonshor [7] is that of the absorption number of an ele- ment
which, roughly speaking, measures the degree to which the cancellation law
fails for
.
2.1. The Dedekind Hyperreals ![]()
Definition 2.1. Let

A Dedekind hyperreal
is an ordered pair
that satisfies the next conditions:

2.
3. ![]()

5. ![]()
Compare the Definition 2.1 with original Wattenberg definition [6] ,(see [6] def.II.1).

Remark 2.2. Unfortunately the set
inherits some but by no means all of the algebraic structure on
. For example,
is not a group with respect to addition since if
denotes the addition in
then:
Thus
is not even a ring but pseudo-ring only.
Definition 2.2. We define:
1. The additive identity (zero cut)
often denoted by
or simply 0 is
![]()
2. The multiplicative identity
often denoted by
or simply 1 is
![]()
Given two Dedekind hyperreal numbers
and
we define:
3. Addition
of
and
often denoted by
is
![]()
It is easy to see that
for all ![]()
It is easy to see that
is again a cut in
and ![]()
Another fundamental property of cut addition is associativity:
![]()
This follows from the corresponding property of

4. The opposite
of

(i) transitivity: ![]()

(iii) translation: ![]()
2.2. The Wattenberg Embeding

Remark 2.3. [6] . In paper [6] Wattenberg pointed out that condition (iii) above is included only to avoid nonuniqueness. Without it

and ![]()
Remark 2.4. [7] . However in paper [7] H. Gonshor pointed out that the definition (2.1) in Wattenberg paper [6] is technically incorrect. Note that Wattenberg [6] defines
in general by
(2.2)
If
i.e.

for some
i.e.

whereas the definition of

Remark 2.5. Note that in the usual treatment of Dedekind cuts for the ordinary real numbers both of the latter sets are regarded as equivalent so that no serious problem arises [7] .
Remark 2.6. H. Gonshor [7] defines

Definition 2.5. (Wattenberg embeding) We embed

the corresponding element

Remark 2.8. Note that in general case
In particular the formula for ![]()
given in [6] on the top of page 229 is not quite correct [7] , see Example 2.2. However by Lemma 2.2 (vi) this is no problem.

2.3. Absorption Numbers in ![]()
One of standard ways of defining the completion of
involves restricting oneself to subsets, which have the following property
. It is well known that in this case we obtain a field. In fact the proof is essentially the same as the one used in the case of ordinary Dedekind cuts in the development of the standard real numbers,
, of course, does not have the above property because no infinitesimal works.This suggests the introduction of the concept of absorption part
of a number
for an element
of
which, roughly speaking, measures how much
departs from having the above property [7] .

Remark 2.9. By Lemma 2.7

by adding on all negative elements of
to
. Of course if the condition
in the definition of

since
The reason for our
definition is that the real interest lies in the non-negative numbers. A technicality occurs if
. We then identify

3. The Proof of the #-Transcendene of the Numbers ![]()
In this section we will prove the #-transcendence of the numbers
Key idea of this proof reduction of the statement of
is #-transcendental number to equivalent statement in
by using pseudoring of Wattenberg hyperreals
[6] and Gonshor idempotent theory [7] . We obtain this reduction by three steps, see Subsections 3.2.1 - 3.2.3.
3.1. The Basic Definitions of the Shidlovsky Quantities
In this section we remind the basic definitions of the Shidlovsky quantities [8] . Let
and
be the Shidlovsky quantities:
(3.1)
(3.2)
(3.3)
where
this is any prime number. Using Equations (3.1)-(3.3.) by simple calculation one obtains:
(3.4)
and consequently
(3.5)
Lemma 3.1. [8] . Let p be a prime number. Then ![]()
Proof. ([8] , p. 128) By simple calculation one obtains the equality
(3.6)
where p is a prime. By using equality
where
from Equations (3.1) and (3.6) one obtains
(3.7)
Thus
(3.8)
Lemma 3.2. [8] . Let p be a prime number. Then
.
Proof. ([8] , p. 128) By subsitution
from Equation (3.3) one obtains
(3.9)
By using equality
(3.10)
and by subsitution Equation (3.10) into RHS of the Equation (3.9) one obtains
(3.11)
Lemma 3.3. [8] . (i) There exists sequences
and
such that
(3.12)
where sequences
and
does not depend on number p. (ii) For any
if
.
Proof. ([8] , p. 129) Obviously there exists sequences
and
such that
and
does not depend on number p
(3.13)
and
(3.14)
Substitution inequalities (3.13)-(3.14) into RHS of the Equation (3.3) by simple calculation gives
(3.15)
Statement (i) follows from (3.15). Statement (ii) immediately follows from a statement (ii).
Lemma 3.4. [8] . For any
and for any
such that
there exists
such that
(3.16)
Proof. From Equation (3.5) one obtains
(3.17)
From Equation (3.17) by using Lemma 3.3. (ii) one obtains (3.17).
Remark 3.1. We remind now the proof of the transcendence of
following Shidlovsky proof is given in his book [8] .
Theorem 3.1. The number
is transcendental.
Proof. ([8] , pp. 126-129) Suppose now that
is an algebraic number; then it satisfies some relation of the form
(3.18)
where
integers and where
Having substituted RHS of the Equation (3.5) into Equation (3.18) one obtains
(3.19)
From Equation (3.19) one obtains
(3.20)
We rewrite the Equation (3.20) for short in the form
(3.21)
We choose now the integers
such that:
(3.22)
and
. Note that
Thus one obtains
(3.23)
and therefore
(3.24)
By using Lemma 3.4 for any
such that
we can choose a prime number
such that:
(3.25)
From (3.25) and Equation (3.21) we obtain
(3.26)
From (3.26) and Equation (3.24) one obtains the contradiction.This contradiction finalized the proof.
3.2. The Proof of the #-Transcendene of the Numbers
. We Will Divide the Proof into Four Parts
3.2.1. Part I. The Robinson Transfer of the Shidlovsky Quantities ![]()
In this subsection we will replace using Robinson transfer the Shidlovsky quantities
by corresponding nonstandard quantities
The properties of the nonstandard quantities
one obtains directly from the pro-
perties of the standard quantities
using Robinson transfer principle [4] [5] .
1. Using Robinson transfer principle [4] [5] from Equation (3.8) one obtains directly
(3.27)
From Equation (3.11) using Robinson transfer principle one obtains
:
(3.28)
Using Robinson transfer principle from inequality (3.15) one obtains
:
(3.29)
Using Robinson transfer principle, from Equation (3.5) one obtains
:
(3.30)
Lemma 3.5. Let
, then for any
and for any
there exists
such that
(3.31)
Proof. From Equation (3.30) we obtain
:
(3.32)
From Equation (3.32) and (3.29) we obtain (3.31).
3.2.2. Part II. The Wattenberg Imbedding
into ![]()
In this subsection we will replace by using Wattenberg imbedding [6] and Gonshor transfer the nonstandard quantities
and the nonstandard Shidlovsky quantities
by correspond- ing Wattenberg quantities
The properties of the Wattenberg quantities
one obtains directly from the properties of the co- rresponding nonstandard quantities
using Gonshor transfer principle [4] [7] .
1. By using Wattenberg imbedding
from Equation (3.30) one obtains
(3.33)
2. By using Wattenberg imbedding
and Gonshor transfer (see Subsection 2.9 Theorem 2.19) from Equation (3.27) one obtains
(3.34)
3. By using Wattenberg imbedding
from Equation (3.28) one obtains
(3.35)
Lemma 3.6. Let
then for any
and for any
there exists
such that
(3.36)
Proof. Inequality (3.36) immediately follows from inequality (3.31) by using Wattenberg imbedding
and Gonshor transfer.
3.2.3. Part III. Reduction of the Statement of e Is #-Transcendental Number to Equivalent Statement in
Using Gonshor Idempotent Theory
To prove that
is #-transcendental number we must show that e is not w-transcendental, i.e., there does not exist real
-analytic function
with rational coefficients
such that
(3.37)
Suppose that e is w-transcendental, i.e., there exists an
-analytic function
with rational coefficients:
(3.38)
such that the equality is satisfied:
(3.39)
In this subsection we obtain an reduction of the equality given by Equation (3.39) to equivalent equality given by Equation (3). The main tool of such reduction that external countable sum defined in Subsection 2.8.
Lemma 3.7. Let
and
be the sum correspondingly
(3.40)
Then ![]()
Proof. Suppose there exists k such that
Then from Equation (3.39) follows
There- fore by Theorem 3.1 one obtains the contradiction.
Remark 3.2. Note that from Equation (3.39) follows that in generel case there is a sequence
such that
(3.41)
or there is a sequence
such that
(3.42)
or both sequences
and
with a property that is specified above exist.
Remark 3.3. We assume now for short but without loss of generelity that (3.41) is satisfied. Then from (3.41) by using Definition 2.17 and Theorem 2.14 (see Subsection 2.8) one obtains the equality [4]
(3.43)
Remark 3.4. Let
and
be the upper external sum defined by
(3.44)
Note that from Equation (3.43)-Equation (3.44) follows that
(3.45)
Remark 3.5. Assume that
and
. In this subsection we will write for a short
iff
absorbs
, i.e. ![]()
Lemma 3.8. ![]()
Proof. Suppose there exists
such that
Then from Equation(3.45) one obtains
(3.46)
From Equation (3.46) by Theorem 2.11 follows that
and therefore by Lemma 3.7 one obtains the contradiction.
Theorem 3.2. [4] The equality (3.43) is inconsistent.
Proof. Let us consider hypernatural number
defined by countable sequence
(3.47)
From Equation (3.43) and Equation (3.47) one obtains
(3.48)
Remark 3.6. Note that from inequality (3.27) by Wattenberg transfer one obtains
(3.49)
Substitution Equation (3.30) into Equation (3.48) gives
(3.50)
Multiplying Equation (3.50) by Wattenberg hyperinteger
by Theorem 2.13 (see subsec- tion 2.8) one obtains
(3.51)
By using inequality (3.49) for a given
we will choose infinite prime integer
such that:
(3.52)
Now using the inequality (3.49) we are free to choose a prime hyperinteger
and
in the Equation (3.51) for a given
such that:
(3.53)
Hence from Equation (3.52) and Equation (3.53) we obtain
(3.54)
Therefore from Equations (3.51) and (3.54) by using definition (2.15) of the function
given by Equation (2.20)-Equation (2.21) and corresponding basic property I (see Subsection 2.7) of the function
we obtain
(3.55)
From Equation (3.55) using basic property I of the function
finally we obtain the main equality
(3.56)
We will choose now infinite prime integer
in Equation (3.56)
such that
(3.57)
Hence from Equation (3.34) follows
(3.58)
Note that
Using (3.57) and (3.58) one obtains:
(3.59)
Using Equation(3.35) one obtains
(3.60)
3.2.4. Part IV. The Proof of the Inconsistency of the Main Equality (3.56)
In this subsection we wil prove that main equality (3.56) is inconsistent. This prooff based on the Theorem 2.10 (v), see Subsection 2.6.
Lemma 3.9. The equality (3.56) under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) is inconsistent.
Proof. (I) Let us rewrite Equation (3.56) in the short form
(3.61)
where
(3.62)
From (3.59)-(3.60) follows that
(3.63)
Remark 3.7. Note that
Otherwise we obtain that
But the other hand from Equation (3.61) follows that
But this is a contradic- tion. This contradiction completed the proof of the statement (I).
(II) Let
and
be the external sum correspondingly
(3.64)
Note that from Equation (3.61) and Equation (3.64) follows that
(3.65)
Lemma 3.10. Under conditions (3.59)-(3.60)
(3.66)
and
(3.67)
Proof. First note that under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) one obtains
(3.68)
Suppose that there exists an
such that
Then from Equation (3.65) one obtains
(3.69)
From Equation (3.69) by Theorem 2.17 one obtains
(3.70)
Thus
(3.71)
From Equation (3.71) by Theorem 2.11 follows that
and therefore by Lemma 3.7 one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction finalized the proof of the Lemma 3.10.
Part (III)
Remark 3.8. (i) Note that from Equation (3.62) by Theorem 2.10 (v) follws that
has the form
(3.72)
where
(3.73)
(ii) Substitution by Equation (3.72) into Equation (3.61) gives
(3.74)
Remark 3.9. Note that from (3.74) by definitions follows that
(3.75)
Remark 3.10. Note that from (3.73) by construction of the Wattenberg integer
obviously follows that there exists some
such that
(3.76)
Therefore
(3.77)
Note that under conditions (3.59)-(3.60) and (3.73) obviously one obtains
(3.78)
From Equation(3.74) follows that
(3.79)
Therefore
(3.80)
From (3.78) follows that
(3.81)
Note that by Theorem 2.8 (see Subsection 2.5) and Formula (3.44) one otains
(3.82)
From Equation (3.81)-Equation (3.82) follows that
(3.83)
Thus
(3.84)
and therefore
(3.85)
But this is a contradiction. This contradiction completed the proof of the Lemma 3.9.

of variables
where

there exists a prime number p such that
(4.23)
where
From Equation (4.4)-Equation (4.6) follows
(4.24)
where
Assume now that
(4.25)
Having substituted RHS of the Equation (4.24) into Equation (4.25) one obtains
(4.26)
From Equation (4.26) by using Equation (4.19) one obtains
(4.27)
We choose now a prime
such that
and
Note that
and therefore from Equation (4.19) and Equation (4.27) one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction com- pleted the proof.

(5.25)
such that
(5.26)
and
(5.27)
Assumption 5.3. We assume now for a short but without loss of generality that the all numbers
are real.
In this subsection we obtain an reduction of the equality given by Equation (5.27) in
to some equivalent equality given by Equation (3) in

Remark 5.6. Note that from inequality (5.12) by Gonshor transfer one obtains
(5.38)
Substitution Equation (5.21) into Equation (5.36) gives
(5.39)
Multiplying Equation (5.39) by Wattenberg hyperinteger
by Theorem 2.13 (see sub- section 2.8) we obtain
(5.40)
By using inequality (5.38) for a given
we will choose infinite prime integer
such that:

Therefore from Equations (5.40) and (5.41) by using definition (2.15) of the function
given by Equation (2.20)-Equation (2.21) and corresponding basic property I (see Subsection 2.7) of the function
we obtain

From Equation (5.42) finally we obtain the main equality
(5.43)
We will choose now infinite prime integer
in Equation (3.56)
such that

Hence from Equation (5.16) follows
(5.45)
Note that
Using (5.44) and (5.45) one obtains:
(5.46)
Using Equation (5.11) one obtains
(5.47)
Part IV. The proof of the inconsistency of the main equality (5.43)
In this subsection we wil prove that main equality (5.43) is inconsistent. This proof is based on the Theorem 2.10 (v), see Subsection 2.6.
Lemma 5.3. The equality (5.43) under conditions (5.46)-(5.47) is inconsistent.
Proof. (I) Let us rewrite Equation (5.43) in the short form

Suppose that there exists
such that
hen from Equation (5.54) one obtains

From Equation (5.58) by Theorem 2.17 one obtains

From Equation (5.60) by Theorem 2.11 follows that
and therefore by Lemma 5.2 one obtains the contradiction. This contradiction finalized the proof of the Lemma 5.4.

Remark 5.9. Note that from (5.63) by definitions follows that
(5.64)
Remark 5.10. Note that from (5.62) by construction of the Wattenberg integer
obviously follows that there exists some

(5.65)
Therefore
(5.66)
Note that under conditions (5.46)-(5.47) and (5.66) obviously one obtains
(5.67)
From Equation (5.63) follows that
(5.68)
Therefore
(5.69)
From (5.69) follows that
(5.70)
Note that from (5.70) by Theorem 2.8 (see Subsection 2.5) and Formula (5.32) one otains
(5.71)
From Equation (5.70)-Equation (5.71) follows that
(5.72)
Thus
(5.73)
and therefore
(5.74)
But this is a contradiction. This contradiction completed the proof of the Lemma 5.3.
Remark 5.11. Note that by Definition 2.18 and Theorem 2.18 from Assumption 5.1 and Assumption 5.2 follows

Theorem 5.3.The equality (5.75) is inconsistent.
Proof. The proof of the Theorem 5.3 obviously copies in main details the proof of the Theorem 5.3.
Theorem 5.3 completed the proof of the main Theorem 1.6.
