Let f be a function transcendental and meromorphic in the plane, and define g(z) by g(z) = f(z+1) - f(z). A number of results are proved concerning the existence of zeros of g(z) or g(z)/f(z), in terms of the growth and the poles of f.

For various arithmetic functions $f:\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}$, the behavior of $f(n!)$ and that of $\sum_{n\le N} f(n!)$ can be intriguing. For instance, for some functions $f$, we have ${f(n!)=\sum_{k\le n}f(k)}$, for others, we have…

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space of entire functions. Let $H'$ be the space of the functions $f(z)/\prod_i(z-z_i)$ where $f$ belongs to $H$ and vanishes at $n$ given complex points $z_i$. We compute a suitable $E$ function for $H'$ when one is…

We obtain results for the following question where $m\ge 1$ and $n\ge 2$ are integers. {\bf Question.} For which continuous functions $f\colon [0,\infty)\to [0,\infty)$ does there exist a continuous function $\phi\colon (0,1)\to (0,\infty)$…

In this paper we consider a fragment of the first-order theory of the real numbers that includes systems of equations of continuous functions in bounded domains, and for which all functions are computable in the sense that it is possible to…

A simple proof is given of the known fact that an m-times continuously differentiable function on the real line can be approximated along with its derivatives by an entire function and its respective derivatives.

In this paper, we seek to explore under what conditions the periodicity of an entire function $ f(z) $ follows from the periodicity of a differential polynomial in $ f(z) $. We improve and generalize some earlier results and we give other…

Results on the upper and lower semicontinuity of functionals defined on spaces of convex and more general functions are established. In particular, the following result is obtained. Let $\phi(v; \cdot)$ be the density of the absolutely…

We study multiplicative functions $f$ satisfying $|f(n)|\le 1$ for all $n$, the associated Dirichlet series $F(s):=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f(n) n^{-s}$, and the summatory function $S_f(x):=\sum_{n\le x} f(n)$. Up to a possible trivial…

Given a probability measure space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$, it is well known that the Riesz space $L^0(\mu)$ of equivalence classes of measurable functions $f: X \to \mathbf{R}$ is universally complete and the constant function $\mathbf{1}$ is a…

This article contains the theorems which shows that when $A(z)=h_1(z)e^{P_1(z)}$ and $B(z)=h_0(z)e^{P_0(z)}$ are of same order,then all the non-trivial solutions of equation $f"+A(z)f'+B(z)f=0$ are of infinite order. Moreover we extend…

Let $f$ be a measurable, real function defined in a neighbourhood of infinity. The function $f$ is said to be of generalised regular variation if there exist functions $h \not\equiv 0$ and $g > 0$ such that $f(xt) - f(t) = h(x) g(t) +…

We consider the entire characteristic functions of order 2 and we prove some decomposition theorems in a multidimensional case. We show that the lack of zeros of the density function is a necessary but not a sufficient (as in the…

For any function $f$ in $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{D})$, let $T_f$ denote the corresponding Toeplitz operator the Bergman space $A^2(\mathbb{D})$. A recent result of D. Luecking shows that if $T_f$ has finite rank then $f$ must be the zero…

We introduce multiple versions of L-functions for Witten zeta functions. We study their algebraic and analytic properties. Especially we investigate the existence of zeros at negative integers. These results strongly suggest the universal…

We show that for many families of transcendental entire functions $f$ the property that $m^n(r)\to\infty$ as $n\to \infty$, for some $r>0$, where $m(r)=\min\{|f(z)|:|z|=r\}$, implies that the escaping set $I(f)$ of $f$ has the structure of…
