Transcendental Number Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a systematic account of transcendental number theory, that is those numbers which cannot be expressed as the roots of algebraic equations having rational coefficients, and their study has developed into a fertile and extensive theory enriching many branches of pure mathematics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linear forms in the logarithms of algebraic numbers

Alan R. H. Baker
- 01 Jun 1967 - 
TL;DR: Gelfond as discussed by the authors showed that the logarithm of a linear algebraic number to an algebraic base, other than 0 or 1, is either rational or transcendental and thereby solved the famous seventh problem of Hilbert.
Journal Article

Logarithmic forms and group varieties.

TL;DR: Wüstholz et al. as discussed by the authors obtained a general analytic subgroup theorem on multiplicity estimates with respect to arbitrary many differential operators and, up to a constant multiple, the results are best possible.

Advances in the Bonded Composite Repair of Metallic Aircraft Structure

TL;DR: The availability of efficient and cost-effective technologies to repair or extend the life of aging military airframes is becoming a critical requirement in most countries around the world, as new aircraft becoming prohibitively expensive and defence budgets shrink.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contributions to the Theory of Diophantine Equations. I. On the Representation of Integers by Binary Forms

TL;DR: In this paper, an effective algorithm was established for solving in integers x, y any Diophantine equation of the type/(x, y ) = m, where/ denotes an irreducible binary form with integer coefficients and degree at least 3.
