Abstract A period is a complex number arising as the integral of a rational function with algebraic number coefficients over a region cut out by finitely many inequalities between polynomials with rational coefficients. Although periods are typically transcendental numbers, there is a conjectural Galois theory of periods coming from the theory of motives. This paper formalizes an analogy between a class of periods called multiple zeta values and congruences for rational numbers modulo prime powers (called supercongruences). We construct an analog of the motivic period map in the setting of supercongruences and use it to define a Galois theory of supercongruences. We describe an algorithm using our period map to find and prove supercongruences, and we provide software implementing the algorithm.

In this paper, we shall prove that any subset of $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, which is closed under complex conjugation, is the exceptional set of uncountably many transcendental entire functions with rational coefficients. This solves an old question proposed by Mahler [Lectures on Transcendental Numbers, Lecture Notes in Mathematics, 546 (Springer, Berlin, 1976)].
