contents Classical results on Diophantine approximation, such as Roth's theorem, provide the most effective techniques for proving the transcendence of special kinds of continued fractions. Multidimensional continued fractions are a generalization of classical continued fractions, introduced by Jacobi, and there are many well-studied open problems related to them. In this paper, we establish transcendence criteria for multidimensional continued fractions. In particular, we show that some Liouville-type and quasi-periodic multidimensional continued fractions are transcendental. We also obtain an upper bound on the naive height of cubic irrationals arising from periodic multidimensional continued fractions and exploit it to prove the transcendence criteria in the quasi-periodic case.
