Weak Ax–Schanuel conjecture for the Gamma function

Let f1,,fnf_1,\ldots,f_n be holomorphic functions satisfying, for every distinct i,j{1,,n}i,j\in\{1,\ldots,n\}, fiQfj+Cf_i\notin\mathbb{Q}f_j+\mathbb{C}. Write f=(f1,,fn)\mathbf{f}=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) and Γ(f)=(Γ(f1),,Γ(fn))\Gamma(\mathbf{f})=(\Gamma(f_1),\ldots,\Gamma(f_n)). Weak Ax–Schanuel conjecture for the Gamma function.

tr.deg.CC(f,Γ(f))n+1.\mathrm{tr.deg.}_{\mathbb{C}}\mathbb{C}(\mathbf{f},\Gamma(\mathbf{f}))\geq n+1.

The source describes this functional conjecture as potentially more tractable than the preceding value-transcendence conjectures, and states that it remains open.
