An omitted value of a transcendental meromorphic function $f$ is called a Baker omitted value, in short \textit{bov} if there is a disk $D$ centered at the bov such that each component of the boundary of $f^{-1}(D)$ is bounded. Assuming…
It is known that, for many transcendental entire functions in the Eremenko-Lyubich class $\mathcal{B}$, every escaping point can eventually be connected to infinity by a curve of escaping points. When this is the case, we say that the…
Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function. For $n \in \mathbb{N},$ let $ f^{n}$ denote the $n^{th}$ iterate of $f$. Let $ I(f) = \{z \in \mathbb{C} : f^n \rightarrow \infty $ as $ n \rightarrow \infty \} $ and $ K(f) = \{z: \textrm{ there…
We consider the transcendental entire function $ f(z)=z+e^{-z} $, which has a doubly parabolic Baker domain $U$ of degree two, i.e. an invariant stable component for which all iterates converge locally uniformly to infity, and for which the…
We give a general method for constructing examples of transcendental entire functions of given small order, which allows precise control over the size and shape of the set where the minimum modulus of the function is relatively large. Our…
We prove a converse Lyapunov theorem for boundedness of reachability sets for a general class of control systems whose flow is Lipschitz continuous on compact intervals with respect to trajectory-dominated inputs. We show that this…
If $f$ is in the Eremenko-Lyubich class (transcendental entire functions with bounded singular set) then $\Omega= \{ z: |f(z)| > R\}$ and $f|_\Omega$ must satisfy certain simple topological conditions when $R$ is sufficiently large. A model…
The dynamical behaviour of a transcendental entire function in any periodic component of the Fatou set is well understood. Here we study the dynamical behaviour of a transcendental entire function $f$ in any multiply connected wandering…
We introduce a simple sieve-theoretic approach to studying partial sums of multiplicative functions which are close to their mean value. This enables us to obtain various new results as well as strengthen existing results with new proofs.…
We study a family of transcendental entire functions of genus zero, for which all of the zeros lie within a closed sector strictly smaller than a half-plane. In general these functions lie outside the Eremenko-Lyubich class. We show that…
In order to analyse the way in which the size of the iterates $(f^n(z))$ of a transcendental entire function $f$ can behave, we introduce the concept of the {\it annular itinerary} of a point $z$. This is the sequence of non-negative…
In this paper we consider Iterated Function Systems (IFS) on the real line consisting of continuous piecewise linear functions. We assume some bounds on the contraction ratios of the functions, but we do not assume any separation condition.…
We show that the escaping sets and the Julia sets of bounded type transcendental entire functions of order $\rho$ become 'smaller' as $\rho\to\infty$. More precisely, their Hausdorff measures are infinite with respect to the gauge function…
For a second order linear differential equation $f''+A(z)f'+B(z)f=0$, with $ A(z)$ and $B(z)$ being transcendental entire functions under some restriction, we have established that all non-trivial solutions are of infinite order. In…
A transcendental function usually returns transcendental values at algebraic points. The (algebraic) exceptions form the so-called \emph{exceptional set}, as for instance the unitary set $\{0\}$ for the function $f(z) = e^z \,$, according…
We establish formulas for the number of all downsets (or equivalently, of all antichains) of a finite poset P. Then, using these numbers, we determine recursively and explicitly the number of all posets having a fixed set of minimal points…
We prove a number of results concerning the Hausdorff and packing dimension of sets of points which escape (at least in average) to infinity at a given rate under non-autonomous iteration of exponential maps. In particular, we generalize…
We prove that if $f:I\subset \Bbb R\to \Bbb R$ is of bounded variation, then the noncentered maximal function $Mf$ is absolutely continuous, and its derivative satisfies the sharp inequality $\|DMf\|_1\le |Df|(I)$. This allows us obtain,…
It is well known that when $f(v)$ is a constant for each vertex $v$, the connected $f$-factor problem is NP-Complete. In this note we consider the case when $f(v) \geq \lceil \frac{n}{2.5}\rceil$ for each vertex $v$, where $n$ is the number…
Let f be a transcendental entire map that is subhyperbolic, i.e., the intersection of the Fatou set F(f) and the postsingular set P(f) is compact and the intersection of the Julia set J(f) and P(f) is finite. Assume that no asymptotic value…
