Proof that this product is transcendental (or not) [on hold]












0














The following products can be expressed using the q-Pochhammer symbol:



$Pi^{infty}_{n=0}left(1+e^{-n}right)=left(-1; frac{1}{e}right)_infty$



$Pi^{infty}_{n=1}left(1-e^{-n}right)=left(frac{1}{e}; frac{1}{e}right)_infty$



Must these two constants be transcendental? I believe they should, but I'm looking for how to prove if they are indeed or are not.
