Abstract
In this paper we establish, using Mahler's method, the algebraic independence of reciprocal sums of products of Fibonacci numbers including slowly increasing factors in their numerators (see Theorems 1, 5, and 6 below). Theorems 1 and 4 are proved by using Theorems 2 and 3 stating key formulas of this paper, which are deduced from the crucial Lemma 2. Theorems 5 and 6 are proved by using different technique. From Theorems 2 and 5 we deduce Corollary 2, the algebraic independence of the sum of a certain series and that of its subseries obtained by taking subscripts in a geometric progression.
