Abstract

We examine various extensions of a series of theorems proved by Chudnovsky in the 1980s on the algebraic independence (transcendence degree 2) of certain quantities involving integrals of the first and second kind on elliptic curves; these extensions include generalizations to abelian varieties of arbitrary dimensions, quantitative refinements in terms of measures of simultaneous approximation, as well as some attempt at unifying the aforementioned theorems. In the process we develop tools that might prove useful in other contexts, revolving around explicit “algebraic” theta functions on the one hand, and Eisenstein's theorem and G-functions on the other hand.
