Abstract

We study the question posed by G. Gundersen and C. C. Yang, in which the following two types of binomial differential equations are investigated, a(z)ffb(z)(f)2=c(z)e2d(z),  a(z)ffb(z)(f)2=c(z)e2d(z), a(z)f'f''-b(z)(f)^{2}=c(z)e^{2d(z)},~~a(z)ff'-b(z)(f'')^{2}=c(z)e^{2d(z)}, where a(z)a(z), b(z)b(z) and c(z)c(z) are polynomials such that a(z)b(z)c(z)≢0a(z)b(z)c(z)\not\equiv 0, d(z)d(z) is non-constant polynomial. The explicit forms of entire solutions of the above binomial differential equations are obtained by using the Nevanlinna theory, which gives partial solutions to the question of G. Gundersen and C. C. Yang. In addition, some examples are given to illustrate these results.
