If f is a suitable meromorphic function, then by a classical technique in the calculus of residues, one can evaluate in closed form series of the form,Suppose that a(n) is an arithmetical function. It is natural to ask whether or not one can evaluate by contour integration(1.1)where f belongs to a suitable class of meromorphic functions. We shall give here only a partial answer for a very limited class of arithmetical functions.

Let f(z) be a meromorphic function and write Here N(r, a) and T(r, f) have their usual meanings (see [4], [5]) and 0 ≧ |a| ≧ ∞. If δ(a, f) > 0 then a is said to be an exceptional (or deficient) value in the sense of Nevanlinna (N.e.v.), and if Δ(a, f) > 0 then a is said to be an exceptional value in the sense of Varliron (V.e.v.). The Weierstrass p(z) function has no exceptional value N or V. Functions of zero order can have atmost one N.e.v. [4, p. 114], but may have more than one V.e.v. (see [6], [8]). In this note we consider functions satisfying some regularity conditions and having one and only one exceptional value V.

Let σs(n) denote the sum of the sth powers of the divisors of n,and let , where ζ(s) is the Riemann ζfunction. Ramanujan, in his paper “On certain arithmetical functions*”, proves that, ifandthen , whenever r and s are odd positive integers. He conjectures that the error term on the right of (1·1) is of the formfor every ε > 0, and that it is not of the form . He further conjectures thatfor all positive values of r and s; and this conjecture has recently been proved to be correct.

AbstractThis paper is devoted to proving some uniqueness results for meromorphic functions f(z) share sets with f(qz). We give a partial answer to a question of Gross concerning a zero-order meromorphic function f(z) and its q-difference f(qz).

1. In his paper ‘On certain arithmetical functions' Ramanujan (23) considers the function τ(n) defined by the expansionThis function appears in the discussion of an asymptotic formula for the functionand also in Ramanujan's formula for the number of representations of an integer as the sum of 24 squares. It is also of interest as the coefficient in the expansion of g(z), which plays an important part in the theory of modular functions.

AbstractLet ƒ(z) be a transcendental meromorphic function of finite order, g(z) a transcendental entire function of finite lower order and let α(z) be a non-constant meromorphic function with T(r, α) = S(r,g). As an extension of the main result of [7], we prove thatwhere J has a positive lower logarithmic density.

In the theory of functions of several complex variables, the problem about the continuation of meromorphic functions has not been much investigated for a long time in spite of its importance except the deeper result of the continuity theorem due to E. E. Levi [4] and H. Kneser [3], The difficulty of its investigation is based on the following reasons: we can not use the tools of not only Cauchy’s integral formula but also the power series and there are indetermination points for the meromorphic function of many variables different from one variable. Therefore we shall also follow the Levi and Kneser’s method and seek for the aspect of meromorphic completion of a Reinhardt domain in Cn.

We study the value distribution of a special class difference polynomial about finite order meromorphic function. Our methods of the proof are also different from ones in the previous results by Chen (2011), Liu and Laine (2010), and Liu and Yang (2009).
