Differentially transcendental functions. (English) Zbl 1184.12002

Summary: The aim of this article is to exhibit a method for proving that certain analytic functions are not solutions of algebraic differential equations. The method is based on model-theoretic properties of differential fields and properties of certain known transcendental differential functions, as of \(\Gamma(x)\). Furthermore, it also determines differential transcendence of solution of some functional equations.
