Linear Independence of 𝑞-Logarithms over the Eisenstein Integers

For fixed complex 𝑞 with |𝑞|>1, the 𝑞-logarithm 𝐿𝑞 is the meromorphic continuation of the series ∑𝑛>0𝑧𝑛/(𝑞𝑛−1),|𝑧|<|𝑞|, into the whole complex plane. If 𝐾 is an algebraic number field, one may ask if 1,𝐿𝑞(1),𝐿𝑞(𝑐) are linearly independent over 𝐾 for 𝑞,𝑐∈𝐾× satisfying |𝑞|>1,𝑐≠𝑞,𝑞2,𝑞3,…. I...
