Jun 19, 2021 at 14:30 comment added Beta I'm sorry, that sentence is not a precise description. What I want to ask is something like this: if $\alpha$ is transcendental, then are $\alpha+\cos(\alpha)$, $\alpha\cos(\alpha)$ and $\alpha/\cos(\alpha)$ transcendental?

Jun 19, 2021 at 11:41 comment added Salvo Tringali You write that $f$ being "a real transcendental function with algebraic coefficients" means, for example, that "if $f(x)$ involves $\sin$ and $\cos$, then $f(x)$ is a polynomial in $\sin x$, $\cos x$ and $x$ with nonzero algebraic coefficients". But this is not the standard definition of a real transcendental function (and, to be honest, makes little sense whatsoever): Isn't the function $f: \mathbf R \to \mathbf R \colon x \mapsto \sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) + x$ a "polynomial in $\sin x$, $\cos x$ and $x$"?
Jun 19, 2021 at 11:25 comment added Salvo Tringali Dear 好きな人がいません: Your question keeps changing from version $n$ to version $n+1$ whenever you get a negative answer to version $n$. I start fearing that the process will never converge (let alone that doing something like this is considered, I think, unfair here on MathOverflow). If you have a new question, it could make more sense to post it on a new thread (after giving it enough of a thought). With that said, I don't understand what you're asking for in the current version of the OP: Isn't $\cos(\cdot)$ a transcendental function?
