Lebesgue measure of escaping sets of entire functions

Abstract

For a transcendental entire function f of finite order in the Eremenko-Lyubich class B, we give conditions under which the Lebesgue measure of the escaping set I(f ) of f is zero. This complements the recent work of Aspenberg and Bergweiler, 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.2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. 37F10 (primary), 30D05 (secondary).

Lebesgue measure of Julia sets and escaping sets of certain entire functions

“…We shall use the following lemma which can be deduced from the arguments in [15, Proof of Lemma 3.7], but for completeness we include the proof, following the reasoning in [15]. Lemma 2.1.…”

Dynamics in the Eremenko-Lyubich class

“…It seems, though, that most examples constructed in this way have an unbounded set of critical values, and so lie outside the class B. (An example of a transcendental entire function in the class B defined using an infinite product was given in [Cui16].) Eremenko and Lyubich [EL87] pioneered the use of approximation theory.…”
