Abstract

Let k be an imaginary quadratic field, heng the complex upper half plane, and let τ ∈ heng ∩ k, q = eπiτ. In this article, we obtain algebraic numbers from the 130 identities of Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions investigated in [28] and [29] by using Berndt's idea ([3]). Using this, we get special transcendental numbers. For example, q1/8/1 + -q/1+q + -q2/1+q2 +... ([1]) is transcendental.
