Abstract

In this paper, we prove that some power series with rational coefficients take either values of rational numbers or transcendental numbers for the arguments from the set of Liouville numbers under certain conditions in the field of complex numbers. We then apply this result to an algebraic number field. In addition, we establish the p-adic analogues of these results and show that these results have analogues in the field of p-adic numbers.
