An approach to the determination of the resultant of two entire functions (Q1795342)

For entire functions \(f\) and \(g\) with \(f(0)=1\) the integrals \[ I_R^m:=\int_{|z|=R} g^m(\zeta)\frac{f'(\zeta)}{f(\zeta)} \, d\zeta, \] are considered, where \(m \in \mathbb{N}\) and \(R>0\) with no zeros of \(f\) lying on the circle \(|z|=R\). According to the residue theorem, \(I_R^m=\sum_{\alpha}n_f(\alpha)g^m(\alpha)\), where the sum ranges over the zeros \(\alpha\) of \(f\) in \(| z| < R\) and \(n_f(\alpha)\) is the multiplicity of \(\alpha\). A formula for the integrals \(I_R^m\) is given in terms of the Taylor coefficients of \(f\) and \(g\) about the origin.
