In mathematics, Gelfond's constant, named after Aleksandr Gelfond, is ''e'', that is, ''e'' raised to the power . Like both ''e'' and , this constant is a transcendental number. This was first established by Gelfond and may now be considered as an application of the Gelfond–Schneider theorem, noting the fact that : where ''i'' is the imaginary unit. Since −''i'' is algebraic but not rational, ''e'' is transcendental. The constant was mentioned in Hilbert's seventh problem. A related constant is , known as the Gelfond–Schneider constant. The related value + ''e'' is also irrational. ==Numerical value== The decimal expansion of Gelfond's constant begins : If one defines for then the sequence : converges rapidly to . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gelfond's constant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
