In a previous paper we considered a positive function f, uniquely determined for s>0 by the requirements f(1)=1, log(1/f) is convex and the functional equation f(s)=psi(f(s+1)) with psi(s)=s-1/s. We prove that the meromorphic extension of f…

A version of the second main theorem of Nevanlinna theory is proved, where the ramification term is replaced by a term depending on a certain composition operator of a meromorphic function of small hyper-order. As a corollary of this result…

In this paper, we investigate meromorphic solutions in $\mathbb{C}^m$ of the nonlinear differential equation \[\displaystyle f^n\partial_u(f)g^n\partial_u(g)=1,\] where $\partial_u(f)=\sum_{j=1}^mu_j\partial_j(f)$ and $\sum_{j=1}^m u_j\neq…

This paper is devoted to the study of meromorphic solutions of nonlinear differential equations, specifically the equation \[ (f^n)^{(k)}(g^n)^{(k)} = \alpha^2, \] where $k$ and $n$ are positive integers with $n>2k$, and $\alpha$ is a…

Let $s_0,s_1,\dots,s_{m-1}$ be complex numbers and $r_0,\dots,r_{m-1}$ rational integers in the range $0\le r_j\le m-1$. Our first goal is to prove that if an entire function $f$ of sufficiently small exponential type satisfies…

We describe meromorphic solutions to the equations $f^n(z)+\left(f'\right)^n(z)=e^{\alpha z+\beta}$ and $f^n(z)+f^n(z+c)=e^{\alpha z+\beta}$ ($c\neq0$) over the complex plane $\mathbf{C}$ for integers $n\geq1$.

We find all non-rational meromorphic solutions of the equation $ww"-(w')^2=\alpha(z)w+\beta(z)w'+\gamma(z)$, where $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ are rational functions of $z$. In so doing we answer a question of Hayman by showing that all…

Let $f$ be a meromorphic function. We suggest a generalization of $f$ and its derivative $f'$ sharing a nonzero value $a$ IM that does not impose any a priori restrictions on the ramification of $f$. Then we discuss some results around the…

We show that every homeomorphic $W^{1,1}_{\rm loc}$ solution $f$ of a Beltrami equation $\overline{\partial}f=\mu\,\partial f$ in a domain $D\subseteq\Bbb C$ is the so--called ring $Q-$homeomorphism with $Q(z)=K^T_{\mu}(z, z_0)$ where…

In this paper, we investigate zeros of difference polynomials of the form $f(z)^nH(z, f)-s(z)$, where $f(z)$ is a meromorphic function, $H(z, f)$ is a difference polynomial of $f(z)$ and $s(z)$ is a small function. We first obtain some…
