A tropical version of Nevanlinna theory is described in which the role of meromorphic functions is played by continuous piecewise linear functions of a real variable whose one-sided derivatives are integers at every point. These functions…
Nevanlinna theory studies the value distribution of meromorphic functions and provides powerful results in the form of the First and Second Main Theorems. In this paper, we introduce quaternionic analogues of the Nevanlinna functions.…
Certain estimates involving the derivative $f\mapsto f'$ of a meromorphic function play key roles in the construction and applications of classical Nevanlinna theory. The purpose of this study is to extend the usual Nevanlinna theory to a…
In this paper, we mainly propose improvements of the logarithmic difference lemma for meromorphic functions in several complex variables, and then investigate meromorphic solutions of partial difference equations from the viewpoint of…
In this paper, we study the growth, in terms of the Nevanlinna characteristic function, of meromorphic solutions of three types of second order nonlinear algebraic ordinary differential equations. We give all their meromorphic solutions…

By extending the idea of a difference operator with a fixed step to varying-steps difference operators, we have established a difference Nevanlinna theory for meromorphic functions with the steps tending to zero (vanishing period) and a…
In this paper, we give several characterizations of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions in terms of a specific type of positive semi-definite functions called Poisson-type functions. This allows us to propose a multidimensional analogue of the…
It is well known that the classical families of orthogonal polynomials are characterized as eigenfunctions of a second order linear differential/difference operator. In this paper we present a study of classical orthogonal polynomials in a…
We establish a Wiman-Valiron theory for a polynomial series based on the Wilson operator $\mathcal{D}_\mathrm{W}$. For an entire function $f$ of order smaller than $\frac13$, this theory includes (i) an estimate which shows that $f$ behaves…
Analogues of the key results of Wiman-Valiron theory are proved for a class of functions meromorphic in the unit disc, based on an approach developed by Bergweiler, Rippon and Stallard for the plane setting. The results give local…

It is shown that if w(z) is a finite-order meromorphic solution of the equation H(z,w) P(z,w) = Q(z,w), where P(z,w) = P(z,w(z),w(z+c_1),...,w(z+c_n)) is a homogeneous difference polynomial with meromorphic coefficients, and H(z,w) =…
