On linear independence measures of the values of Mahler functions

In this paper, we estimate the linear independence measures for the values of a class Mahler functions of degree one and two. For the purpose, we study the determinants of suitable Hermite-Pad\'{e} approximation polynomials. Based on the non-vanishing of these determinants, we apply the functional equations to get an infinite sequence of approximations which is used to produce the linear independence measures.
