AbstractIt is shown that any subset of $\overline {\mathbb {Q}}$ can be the exceptional set of some transcendental entire function. Furthermore, we give a much more general version of this theorem and present a unified proof.

Dedicated to George Szekeres on his 90th birthdayFor a transcendental entire function f let M(r) denote the maximum modulus of f(z) for |z| = r. Then A(r) = log M(r)/logr tends to infinity with r. Many properties of transcendental entire functions with sufficiently small A(r) resemble those of polynomials. However the dynamical properties of iterates of such functions may be very different. For instance in the stable set F(f) where the iterates of f form a normal family the components are preperiodic under f in the case of a polynomial; but there are transcendental functions with arbitrarily small A(r) such that F(f) has nonpreperiodic components, so called wandering components, which are bounded rings in which the iterates tend to infinity. One might ask if all small functions are like this.A striking recent result of Bergweiler and Eremenko shows that there are arbitrarily small transcendental entire functions with empty stable set—a thing impossible for polynomials. By extending the technique of Bergweiler and Eremenko, an arbitrarily small transcendental entire function is constructed such that F is nonempty, every component G of F is bounded, simply-connected and the iterates tend to zero in G. Zero belongs to an invariant component of F, so there are no wandering components. The Julia set which is the complement of F is connected and contains a dense subset of “buried’ points which belong to the boundary of no component of F. This bevaviour is impossible for a polynomial.

SynopsisWe show that if B(z) is either (i) a transcendental entire function with order (B)≠1, or (ii) a polynomial of odd degree, then every solution f≠0 to the equation f″ + e−zf′ + B(z)f = 0 has infinite order. We obtain a partial result in the case when B(z) is an even degree polynomial. Our method of proof and lemmas for case (i) of the above result have independent interest.

AbstractSuppose that f is a transcendental entire function, $$V \subsetneq {\mathbb {C}}$$ V ⊊ C is a simply connected domain, and U is a connected component of $$f^{-1}(V)$$ f - 1 ( V ) . Using Riemann maps, we associate the map $$f :U \rightarrow V$$ f : U → V to an inner function $$g :{\mathbb {D}}\rightarrow {\mathbb {D}}$$ g : D → D . It is straightforward to see that g is either a finite Blaschke product, or, with an appropriate normalisation, can be taken to be an infinite Blaschke product. We show that when the singular values of f in V lie away from the boundary, there is a strong relationship between singularities of g and accesses to infinity in U. In the case where U is a forward-invariant Fatou component of f, this leads to a very significant generalisation of earlier results on the number of singularities of the map g. If U is a forward-invariant Fatou component of f there are currently very few examples where the relationship between the pair (f, U) and the function g has been calculated. We study this relationship for several well-known families of transcendental entire functions. It is also natural to ask which finite Blaschke products can arise in this manner, and we show the following: for every finite Blaschke product g whose Julia set coincides with the unit circle, there exists a transcendental entire function f with an invariant Fatou component such that g is associated with f in the above sense. Furthermore, there exists a single transcendental entire function f with the property that any finite Blaschke product can be arbitrarily closely approximated by an inner function associated with the restriction of f to a wandering domain.

We prove the following: Assume that , where p is an odd positive integer, g(ζ is a transcendental entire function with order of growth less than 1, and set A(z) = B(ezz). Then for every solution , the exponent of convergence of the zero-sequence is infinite, and, in fact, the stronger conclusion holds. We also give an example to show that if the order of growth of g(ζ) equals 1 (or, in fact, equals an arbitrary positive integer), this conclusion doesn't hold.

We construct a transcendental entire function $f$ with $J(f)=\mathbb{C}$ such that $f$ has arbitrarily slow growth; that is, $\log |f(z)|\leq\phi(|z|)\log |z|$ for $|z|>r_0$, where $\phi$ is an arbitrary prescribed function tending to infinity.

We study the iteration of functions in the exponential family. We construct a number of sets, consisting of points which escape to infinity ‘slowly’, and which have Hausdorff dimension equal to$1$. We prove these results by using the idea of anannular itinerary. In the case of a general transcendental entire function we show that one of these sets, theuniformly slowly escaping set, has strong dynamical properties and we give a necessary and sufficient condition for this set to be non-empty.

AbstractWe show that if the growth of a transcendental entire function f is sufficiently regular, then the Julia set and the escaping set of f have Hausdorff dimension 2.

For a transcendental entire function $f$ of finite order in the Eremenko–Lyubich class ${\mathcal{B}}$, we give conditions under which the Lebesgue measure of the escaping set ${\mathcal{I}}(f)$ of $f$ is zero. This complements the recent work of Aspenberg and Bergweiler [Math. Ann. 352(1) (2012), 27–54], in which they give conditions on entire functions in the same class with escaping sets of positive Lebesgue measure. We will construct an entire function in the Eremenko–Lyubich class to show that the condition given by Aspenberg and Bergweiler is essentially sharp. Furthermore, we adapt our idea of proof to certain infinite-order entire functions. Under some restrictions to the growth of these entire functions, we show that the escaping sets have zero Lebesgue measure. This generalizes a result of Eremenko and Lyubich.

We investigate the connectedness properties of the set$I^{\!+\!}(f)$of points where the iterates of an entire function$f$are unbounded. In particular, we show that$I^{\!+\!}(f)$is connected whenever iterates of the minimum modulus of$f$tend to$\infty$. For a general transcendental entire function $f$, we show that$I^{\!+\!}(f)\cup \{\infty \}$is always connected and that, if$I^{\!+\!}(f)$is disconnected, then it has uncountably many components, infinitely many of which are unbounded.
