In this note, the main focus is on a question about transcendental entire functions mapping $\mathbb{Q}$ into $\mathbb{Q}$ (which is related to a Mahler's problem). In particular, we prove that, for any $t>0$, there is no a transcendental…
Consider a continuous surjective self map of the open annulus with degree d > 1. It is proved that the number of Nielsen classes of periodic points is maximum possible whenever f has a completely invariant essential continuum. The same…
For any quantity of interest in a system governed by ordinary differential equations, it is natural to seek the largest (or smallest) long-time average among solution trajectories, as well as the extremal trajectories themselves. Upper…
An annulus is, informally, a ring-shaped region, often described by two concentric circles. The maximum-width empty annulus problem asks to find an annulus of a certain shape with the maximum possible width that avoids a given set of $n$…
In the first part of this paper we establish, in terms of so called k-tangential sets, a kind of optimal estimate for the size and structure of the set of non-differentiability of Lipshitz functions with one-sided directional derivatives.…
In this note, continuous transitive maps $f$ on the interval $I$ are re-addressed, where $I$ denotes one of the intervals: $(-\infty, \infty)$, $(-\infty, a]$, $[b, \infty)$, $[a, b]$, where $a < b$ are real numbers. Such maps must have a…
Given a point and an expanding map on the unit interval, we consider the set of points for which the forward orbit under this map is bounded away from the given point. For maps like multiplication by an integer modulo 1, such sets have full…
We introduce the novel concept of a non-stationary iterated function system by considering a countable sequence of distinct set-valued maps $\{\mathcal{F}_k\}_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ where each $\mathcal{F}_k$ maps $\mathcal{H}(X)\to…
In this paper we obtain estimates for certain transcendence measures of an entire function $f$. Using these estimates, we prove Bernstein, doubling and Markov inequalities for a polynomial $P(z,w)$ in ${\Bbb C}^2$ along the graph of $f$.…
We present a theorem on taking the repeated indefinite summation of a holomorphic function $\phi(z)$ in a vertical strip of $\mathbb{C}$ satisfying exponential bounds as the imaginary part grows. We arrive at this result using transforms…
We construct several new classes of transcendental entire functions, f, such that both the escaping set, I(f), and the fast escaping set, A(f), have a structure known as a spider's web. We show that some of these classes have a degree of…
It is not uncommon in analysis that existence of extremal objects is obtained via an iterative procedure: we start from a given admissible object, then modify it, then modify again etc... If being extremal means maximimizing a real valued…
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…
The number of excursions (finite paths starting and ending at the origin) having a given number of steps and obeying various geometric constraints is a classical topic of combinatorics and probability theory. We prove that the sequence…
We partition the fast escaping set of a transcendental entire function into two subsets, the maximally fast escaping set and the non-maximally fast escaping set. These sets are shown to have strong dynamical properties. We show that the…
Baker's conjecture states that a transcendental entire function of order less than $1/2$ has no unbounded Fatou components. It is known that, for such functions, there are no unbounded periodic Fatou components and so it remains to show…
A new mathematical notation is proposed for the iteration of functions. It facilitates the application of the iteration of functions in mathematical and logical expressions, definitions of sets, and formulations of algorithms. Illustrations…
We first establish any continuum without interiors can be a limit set of iterations of an entire function on an oscillating wandering domain, and hence arise as a component of Julia sets. Recently, Luka Boc Thaler showed that every bounded…
We introduce the notion of a "random basic walk" on an infinite graph, give numerous examples, list potential applications, and provide detailed comparisons between the random basic walk and existing generalizations of simple random walks.…
Given two permutable entire functions $f$ and $g,$ we establish vital relationship between escaping sets of entire functions $f, g$ and their composition. We provide some families of transcendental entire functions for which Eremenko's…
