We present a new result on the nonexistence of generalized bent functions (GBFs)from (Z/tZ)^n to Z/tZ (called type [n, t]) for a large class. Assume p is an odd prime number. By showing certain quadratic norm form equations having no…

We consider holomorphic maps $f: U \to U$ for a hyperbolic domain $U$ in the complex plane, such that the iterates of $f$ converge to a boundary point $\zeta$ of $U$. By a previous result of the authors, for such maps there exist nice…

In this paper, we study the transcendental meromorphic solutions for the nonlinear differential equations: $f^{n}+P(f)=R(z)e^{\alpha(z)}$ and $f^{n}+P_{*}(f)=p_{1}(z)e^{\alpha_{1}(z)}+p_{2}(z)e^{\alpha_{2}(z)}$ in the complex plane, where…

The bounded domains of holomorphy in~$\mathbf{C}^n$ whose Bergman kernel functions are zero-free form a nowhere dense subset (with respect to a variant of the Hausdorff distance) of all bounded domains of holomorphy.

Let $f(z,w)=(p(z),q(z,w))$ be a polynomial skew product such that the degrees of $p$ and $q$ are grater than or equal to $2$. Under one or two conditions, we prove that $f$ is conjugate to a monomial map on an invariant region near…

In this note, we prove the existence of infinitely many zeros of certain generalized Hurwitz zeta functions in the domain of absolute convergence. This is a generalization of a classical problem of Davenport, Heilbronn and Cassels about the…

A classical result states that if $f(z)$ is a polynomial of degree at most $n$ with nonnegative coefficients, then $f(z)$ has no zeros in the sector $|\arg(z)| < \frac{\pi}{n}$ of the complex plane, and the bound $\frac{\pi}{n}$ is tight.…

We describe the class of n-variable polynomial functions that satisfy Acz\'el's bisymmetry property over an arbitrary integral domain of characteristic zero with identity.

The main result of the paper determines all real meromorphic functions of finite order in the plane for which the first derivative has finitely many zeros, while the function itself and one of its higher derivatives have finitely many…

The Theorem on Invariance of Domain due to L.E.J. Brouwer states that one connected, compact (Hausdorff) m-dimensional manifold embedded into another actually realizes a homeomorphism. This fundamental result is relevant to Functional…

Suppose that $k$ and $N$ are positive integers. Let $f$ be a newform on $\Gamma_0(N)$ of weight $k$ with $L$-function $L_f(s)$. Previous works have studied the zeros of the period polynomial $r_f(z)$, which is a generating function for the…

This paper is concerned with Mahler's method. We study in detail the structure of linear relations between values of Mahler functions at algebraic points. In particular, given a field ${\bf k}$, a Mahler function $f(z)\in{\bf k}\{z\}$, and…

For an entire function $f(z) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_k z^k,$ $a_k >0,$ we define the sequence of the second quotients of Taylor coefficients $Q := \left( \frac{a_k^2}{a_{k-1}a_{k+1}} \right)_{k=1}^\infty$. We find new necessary conditions for…

We prove that every completely monotone function defined on a right-unbounded open interval admits a Newton series expansion at every point of that interval. This result can be viewed as an analog of Bernstein's little theorem for…

We prove that any $q$-automatic completely multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character. This answers a question of J. P. Allouche and L. Goldmakher and confirms a conjecture of J.…

This work revolves around properties and applications of functions whose nonlocal gradient, or more precisely, finite-horizon fractional gradient, vanishes. Surprisingly, in contrast to the classical local theory, we show that this class…

We prove the existence of transcendental entire functions $f$ having a property studied by Mahler, namely that $f(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})\subseteq \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ and $f^{-1}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})\subseteq \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and…

We present a theory of the $b$-function (or Bernstein-Sato polynomial) in positive characteristic. Let $f$ be a non-constant polynomial with coefficients in a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0.$ Its $b$-function $b_f$ is defined to…

Two theorems on the asymptotic distribution of zeros of sequences of analytic functions are proved. First one relates the asymptotic behavior of zeros to the asymptotic behavior of coefficients. Second theorem establishes a relation between…

We explain that the logic behind the derivation of the Noumi-Shiraishi function can be applied directly to the Baker-Akhiezer function (BAF). This amounts to changing an ansatz for BAF to a nested one, where the BAF of N + 1 variables is…
