1 Transcendental in philosophical contexts

In philosophy, transcendental experiences are experiences of an exclusively human nature that are other-worldly or beyond the human realm of understanding.

Things sometimes considered transcendental are religion, parts of philosophy (especially metaphysics and ontology), humour, death and more.

2 Transcendental field elements in mathematics

A transcendental function in Mathematics is a function which is not expressible as a composition of a finite number of elementary operations, or inverses of functions so constructible, where the elementary operations consist of addition, multiplication, taking additive or multiplicative inverses, and integer root extraction. Transcendental functions include all the trigonometric functions and logarithmic functions, along with most other special functions in mathematics.

A transcendental element ξ of a field extension K over the field F is an element that is not the solution of a polynomial equation with coefficients in F, i.e., if there exists no polynomial

P(x) = a_n xⁿ + ... + a₁ x + a₀,

with all a_i ∈ F, such that P(ξ) = 0.

In the case of the field C of complex numberThe complex numbers are an extension of the real numbers, in which all non-constant polynomials have roots. The complex numbers contain a number , the imaginary unit with , i. is a square root of. Every complex number can be represented in the form , whers or the field R of real numberIn mathematics, the real numbers are intuitively defined as numbers that are in one-to-one correspondence with the points on an infinite line—the number line. The term "real number" is a retronym coined in response to " imaginary number". Real numbers mays, a transcendental numberIn mathematics, a transcendental number is any irrational number that is not an algebraic number, i. it is not the solution of any polynomial equation of the form : where n ≥ 1 and the coefficients a are integers (or, equivalently, rationals), not all is a number which is transcendental over the field Q of rational numberIn mathematics, a rational number (or informally fraction is a ratio of two integers, usually written as the vulgar fraction a ''b where b is not zero. The set of all rational numbers is denoted by Q or in blackboard bold. Using the set-builder notation is.
