We define Baker omitted value, in short bov, of an entire or meromorphic function f in the complex plane as an omitted value for which there exists r0 > 0 such that for each ball Dr(a) centered at a and with radius r satisfying 0 < r < r0,…

In 1985, W.K.Hayman (Bayer. Akad. Wiss. Math.-Natur. Kl. Sitzungsber, 1984(1985), 1-13.) proved that there do not exist non-constant meromorphic functions $f,$ $g$ and $h$ satisfying the functional equation $f^n+g^n+h^n=1$ for $n\geq 9.$ We…

We examine a parameterized family of functions F_a, all of which are continuous and some of which are nowhere or almost nowhere differentiable, we explore the behavior of F'_a and F"_a almost everywhere for different values of a, focusing…

For any infinite subset $X$ of the rationals and a subset $F \subseteq X$ which has no isolated points in $X$ we construct a function $f: X \to X$ such that $f(f(x))=x$ for each $x\in X$ and $F $ is the set of discontinuity points of $f$.

We examine Bourbaki's function, an easily-constructed continuous but nowhere-differentiable function, and explore properties including functional identities, the antiderivative, and the box and Hausdorff dimensions of the graph.

It is known that every homeomorphism of the plane has a fixed point in a non-separating, invariant subcontinuum. Easy examples show that a branched covering map of the plane can be periodic point free. In this paper we show that any…

We give a new proof of the result that if f and g are transcendental entire functions, then the composite function f(g) has infinitely many fixed points. The method yields a number of generalization of this result. In particular, it extends…

We answer in the negative a question by Gruenbaum who asked if there exists a finite basis of affine invariant points. We give a positive answer to another question by Gruenbaum about the "size" of the set of all affine invariant points.…

We show that if a complex entire function $f$ and its derivative $f'$ share their simple zeroes and their simple $a$-points for some nonzero constant $a$, then $f\equiv f'$. We also discuss how far these conditions can be relaxed or…

We obtain sufficient conditions for an exponential type entire function not to have zeros in the open lower half-plane. An exact inequality containing the real and imaginary parts of such functions and their derivatives restricted to the…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}$ such that $\partial \Omega$ does not contain isolated points. Let $R(\Omega)$ be the space of uniform limits on $\overline{\Omega}$ of rational functions with poles off $\overline{\Omega}$,…

Answering a question asked by K.C. Ciesielski and T. Glatzer in 2013, we construct a $C^1$-smooth function $f$ on $[0,1]$ and a set $M \subset \operatorname{graph} f$ nowhere dense in $\operatorname{graph} f$ such that there does not exist…

This paper develops further the theory of the automorphic group of non-constant entire functions. This theory essentially started with two remarkable papers of Tatsujir\^o Shimizu that were published in 1931. There are three results in this…

We show that there is a transcendental meromorphic function with an invariant Baker domain $U$ such that every singular value of $f$ is a super-attracting periodic point. This answers a question of Bergweiler from 1993. We also show that…

We show that domains, that allow for convex functions with unbounded gradient at their boundary, are convex.

In 1998, Benyamini introduced and proved the existence of universal interpolating functions. In the note we prove that the set of universal interpolating functions is nowhere dense in the space of continuous functions on $\mathbb{R}$.…

We give an entire free holomorphic function $f$ which is unbounded on the row ball. That is, we give a holomorphic free noncommutative function which is continuous in the free topology developed by Agler and McCarthy but is unbounded on the…

We present proofs of basic results, including those developed by Harold Bell, for the plane fixed point problem: does every map of a non-separating plane continuum have a fixed point? Some of these results had been announced much earlier by…

We deal with values taken by various pseudopower functions at a singular cardinal that is not a fixed point of the aleph function.

As an application of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem we prove that a continuously differentiable convex function with gradient of constant norm is an affine mapping. It is a first-order characterization of affine mappings among continuously…
