Abstract

The classical abcabc theorem for polynomials (often called Mason's theorem) deals with nontrivial polynomial solutions to the equation a+b=ca+b=c. It provides a lower bound for the number of distinct zeros of the polynomial abcabc in terms of dega\deg{a}, degb\deg{b}, and degc\deg{c}. We prove some "local" abcabc-type theorems for general analytic functions living on a reasonable bounded domain ΩC\Omega\subset\mathbb C, rather than on the whole of C\mathbb C. The estimates obtained are sharp, for any Ω\Omega, and they imply (a generalization of) the original "global" abcabc theorem by a limiting argument.
