This paper is devoted to establish sufficient conditions under which a transcendental meromorphic function has no unbounded Fatou components and to extend some results for entire functions to meromorphic functions. Actually, we shall mainly…
The \emph{Filter Dichotomy} says that every uniform nonmeager filter on the integers is mapped by a finite-to-one function to an ultrafilter. The consistency of this principle was proved by Blass and Laflamme. A function between topological…
We introduce a new class of entire functions $\mathcal{E}$ which consists of all $F_0\in\mathcal{O}(\mathbb{C})$ for which there exists a sequence $(F_n)\in \mathcal{O}(\mathbb{C})$ and a sequence $(\lambda_n)\in\mathbb{C}$ satisfying…
A finite relational structure A is called compact if for any infinite relational structure B of the same type, the existence of a homomorphism from B to A is equivalent to the existence of homomorphisms from all finite substructures of B to…
Our aim is to show that it is impossible to find a bound for the power of the first fixed point of the aleph function.
We define a switch function to be a function from an interval to $\{1,-1\}$ with a finite number of sign changes. (Special cases are the Walsh functions.) By a topological argument, we prove that, given $n$ real-valued functions, $f_1,…
Let $[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a non empty and non singleton closed interval and $P=\{a=x_0<\cdots<x_n=b\}$ is a partition of it. Then $f:I\to\mathbb{R}$ is said to be a function of $r$-bounded variation, if the expression…
Let $T$ be a power-bounded operator on a Banach space $X$, $\mathcal{A}$ be a Banach algebra of bounded holomorphic functions on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$, and assume that there is a bounded functional calculus for the operator $T$, so…
A function $F:\mathbb{F}_2^n\rightarrow \mathbb{F}_2^n$, $n=2m$, can have at most $2^n-2^m$ bent component functions. Trivial examples are obtained as $F(x) = (f_1(x),\ldots,f_m(x),a_1(x),\ldots, a_m(x))$, where…
We show that a rational function $f$ of degree $>1$ on the projective line over an algebraically closed field that is complete with respect to a non-trivial and non-archimedean absolute value has no potentially good reductions if and only…
Let k be a number field, let E/k be an elliptic curve, and let S be a finite set of places of k contianing the archimedean places. Let F be an algebraic closure of k. We prove that if a point P in E(F) is nontorsion, then there are only…
Let f be an entire function whose set of singular values is bounded and suppose that f has a Siegel disk such that f restricts to a homeomorphism of the boundary. We show that the Siegel disk is bounded. Using a result of Herman, we deduce…
A simple criterion for a functor to be finitary is presented: we call $F$ finitely bounded if for all objects $X$ every finitely generated subobject of $FX$ factorizes through the $F$-image of a finitely generated subobject of $X$. This is…
We give a new proof of Fatou's theorem: {\em if an algebraic function has a power series expansion with bounded integer coefficients, then it must be a rational function.} This result is applied to show that for any non--trivial completely…
A theory of recursive definitions has been mechanized in Isabelle's Zermelo-Fraenkel (ZF) set theory. The objective is to support the formalization of particular recursive definitions for use in verification, semantics proofs and other…
We show that there exists an entire function which has neither fixed points nor invariant Baker domains. The question whether such a function exists was raised by Buff.
Given a finite set $X$ and a function $f:X\to X$, we define the degree of noninvertibility of $f$ to be $\displaystyle\text{deg}(f)=\frac{1}{|X|}\sum_{x\in X}|f^{-1}(f(x))|$. This is a natural measure of how far the function $f$ is from…
Highly oscillatory integrals, such as those involving Bessel functions, are best evaluated analytically as much as possible, as numerical errors can be difficult to control. We investigate indefinite integrals involving monomials in $x$…
The paper is devoted to a detailed analysis of nonlocal error bounds for nonconvex piecewise affine functions. We both improve some existing results on error bounds for such functions and present completely new necessary and/or sufficient…
In a recent paper it was shown that No Free Lunch results hold for any subset F of the set of all possible functions from a finite set X to a finite set Y iff F is closed under permutation of X. In this article, we prove that the number of…
