Description

Abstract. A Liouville number is an irrational real number with an infinite irrationality exponent. Almost all real numbers are not Liouville numbers but it can be difficult in practice to prove that a given real number is not a Liouville one. In this talk, I will explain how a combination of results due to André, Beukers and Shidlovskii enables to prove that the real values of E-functions at algebraic points are not Liouville numbers. This is a joint work with Stéphane Fischler (Université Paris Saclay).
