Quasinormal families of meromorphic functions (Q2567448): Difference between revisions

A family \(\mathcal F\) of functions meromorphic on a plane domain \(D\) is said to be quasinormal on \(D\) if from each sequence \(\{f_n\}\subset \mathcal F\) one can extract a subsequence \(\{f_{n_k}\}\) which converges locally uniformly with respect to the spherical metric on \(D\setminus E\), where the set \(E\) (which may depend on \(\{f_{n_k}\}\)) has no accumulation point in \(D\). If \(E\) can always be chosen to satisfy \(| E| \leq \nu\), \(\mathcal F\) is said to be quasinormal of order \(\nu\) on \(D\). The main result of the paper under review is the following Theorem: Let \(\mathcal F\) be a quasinormal family of meromorphic functions on \(D\), all of whose zeros are multiple. If for any \(f\in \mathcal F\), \(f'(z) \neq 1\) for \(z\in D\), then \(\mathcal F\) is quasinormal of order \(1\) on \(D\).
