Abstract
In 1906, Maillet proved that given a non-constant rational function , with rational coefficients, if is a Liouville number, then so is . Motivated by this fact, in 1984, Mahler raised the question about the existence of transcendental entire functions with this property. In this work, we provide an uncountable subset of Liouville numbers for which there exists a transcendental entire function taking this set into the set of the Liouville numbers.
