Streszczenie
We study infinite products $F(z)=\prod_{j\ge0}p(z^{d^j})$, where $d\ge2$ is an integer and $p\in\mathbb{C}[z]$ with $p(0)=1$ has at least one zero not lying on the unit circle. In that case, $F$ is a transcendental function and we are mainly interested in conditions for its hypertranscendence. Moreover, we investigate finite sets of infinite products of type $F$ and show that, under certain natural assumptios, these functions and their first derivatives are algebraically independent over $\mathbb{C}(z)$.
