Abstract

A generalization of Liouville's theorem on integration in finite terms, by enlarging the class of fields to an extension called Ei-Gamma extension is established. This extension includes the $\varepsilon$L-elementary extension of Singer, Saunders and Caviness and contains the Gamma function.
