which contradicts condition (1.3). Therefore, λ * ∈ R. The entire function occurring on the left-hand side in Eq. (2.1) does not vanish for nonreal λ. Consequently, it does not vanish identically. Therefore, its zeros form an at most countable set without finite limit points.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
