A nonzero integer polynomial of bidegree at most can cancel the first Taylor coefficients of the Fredholm series. Functional transcendence makes the resulting analytic function nonzero. If and were both algebraic, the relation would keep the auxiliary values in one fixed number field. Their Absolute logarithmic Weil height is at most , whereas their chosen absolute value is . The Liouville height inequality forces , contradicting its quadratic lower bound for sufficiently large .
