Let $\mathfrak{f}$ be a transcendental entire function with hyper-order less than one. The aim of this note is to study the value distribution of the differential-difference monomials $\alpha \mathfrak{f}(z)^{q_0}(\mathfrak{f}(z+c))^{q_1}$,…

Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…

The following theorem is proven: Both real and imaginary parts of the function F(s) defined as F(s)=zeta(s)*Gamma(s/2)*pi**(-s/2)=xi(s)/(s*(s-1)), and whose zeroes exactly coincide with the non-trivial zeroes of the Riemann zeta-function,…

Given a real function $f$ on an interval $[a,b]$ satisfying mild regularity conditions, we determine the number of zeros of $f$ by evaluating a certain integral. The integrand depends on $f, f'$ and $f''$. In particular, by approximating…

We study the local invariants that a meromorphic $k$-differential on a Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 0$ can have for $k \geq 3$. These local invariants include the orders of zeros and poles, as well as the $k$-residues at the poles. We…

We improve well-known results concerning normal families and shared values of meromorphic functions in the plane. In particular, we obtain two corollaries concerning meromorphic functions $f \colon {\mathbb C} \to {\widehat{\mathbb C}}$: i)…

On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, we generalize a central limit theorem of Fujii regarding the number of zeroes of Riemann's zeta function that lie in a mesoscopic interval. The result mirrors results of Soshnikov and others in…

We consider zeta functions: $Z(f ;P ;s)=\sum_{\m \in \N^{n}} f(m_1,..., m_n) P(m_1,..., m_n)^{-s/d}$ where $P \in \R [X_1,..., X_n]$ has degree $d$ and $f$ is a function arithmetic in origin, e.g. a multiplicative function. In this paper, I…

We give new bounds on the zeros of polynomials in $z$ and the $j$--function, and $z$ and Weierstrass elliptic functions with rectangular associated lattice, controlling the zeros of these functions by their tame behaviour on the boundaries…

Meromorphic solutions of non-linear differential equations of the form $f^n+P(z,f)=h$ are investigated, where $n\geq 2$ is an integer, $h$ is a meromorphic function, and $P(z,f)$ is differential polynomial in $f$ and its derivatives with…

In this article, we focus on studying the differential-difference equation \[ f'(z) = a(z)f(z+1) + R(z, f(z)), \quad R(z, f(z)) = \frac{P(z, f(z))}{Q(z, f(z))}, \] where the two nonzero polynomials \( P(z, f(z)) \) and \( Q(z, f(z)) \) in…

In this paper, we shall study the uniqueness problems on meromorphic functions sharing a polynomial. We give a complete answer to a problem posed by Fang Mingliang. Our results improve or generalize those given by Fang and Hua, Yang and…

We study the topological zeta function Z_{top,f}(s) associated to a polynomial f with complex coefficients. This is a rational function in one variable and we want to determine the numbers that can occur as a pole of some topological zeta…

Let $f=f(x_1,\dots,x_m)$ be a multilinear polynomial over a field $F$. An $F$-algebra $A$ is said to be $f$-zpd ($f$-zero product determined) if every $m$-linear functional $\varphi\colon A^{m}\rightarrow F$ which preserves zeros of $f$ is…

Let $X\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a (global) real analytic surface. Then every positive semidefinite meromorphic function on $X$ is a sum of $10$ squares of meromorphic functions on $X$. As a consequence, we provide a real Nullstellensatz for…

Inspired by the work of Bank on the hypertranscendence of $\Gamma e^h$ where $\Gamma$ is the Euler gamma function and $h$ is an entire function, we investigate when a meromorphic function $fe^g$ cannot satisfy any algebraic differential…

It is a consequence of the Jacobi Inversion Theorem that a line bundle over a Riemann surface M of genus g has a meromorphic section having at most g poles, or equivalently, the divisor class of a divisor D over M contains a divisor having…

A key theorem formulated in the context of functional Mellin transforms generalizes the important relationship $\exp\mathrm{tr} M=\det\exp M$. Along with the involution symmetry of the zeta function, the theorem suggests a strategy for…

The existence of non trivial zeros off the critical line for a function obtained by analytic continuation of a particular Dirichlet series is studied. Contrary to what has been presumed for a long time, we prove that such zeros cannot…
