Abstract

We show that the Hecke-Mahler series, the generating function of the sequence {[nω]}n=1∞ for ω real, has the following property: Its values and its derivatives of any order, at any nonzero distinct algebraic numbers inside the unit circle, are algebraically independent if ω is a quadratic irrational number satisfying a suitable condition.
