Abstract: We consider the subclass of class mathcalB consisting of meromorphic functions f:mathbbCohatmathbbC for which infinity is not an asymptotic value and whose all poles have orders uniformly bounded from above. This class was introduced in cite{BwKo2012} and the Hausdorff dimension mHD(mathcalI(f)) of the set mathcalI(f) of all points escaping to infinity under forward iteration of f was estimated therein. In this paper we provide a closed formula for the exact value of mHD(mathcalI(f)) identifying it with the critical exponent of the natural series introduced in cite{BwKo2012}. This exponent is very easy to calculate for many concrete functions. In particular, we construct a function from this class which is of infinite order and for which mHD(mathcalI(f))=0.


Let \(\mathcal{B}\) denote the class of meromorphic functions for which the set of finite asymptotic and critical values is bounded. In this paper, the authors study the Hausdorff dimension of escaping sets of functions in \(\mathcal{B}\). Let \[ \mathcal{I}(f)=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:f^n(z)\to\infty \mbox{ as } n\to \infty\}, \] and \[ \mathcal{I}_R(f)=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\liminf_{n\to\infty}|f^n(z)|\ge R\}. \] Let \(f\) be a transcendental meromorphic function in \(\mathcal{B}\) and assume that the multiplicities of all poles is not greater than \(M\). Let \(\{a_j\}_{j=1}^{\infty}\) be the sequence of nonzero poles, and \(m_j\) be the multiplicity of \(a_j\). Then \[ f(z) \sim \left(\frac{b_j}{z-a_j}\right)^{m_j} \mbox{ as } z\to a_j, \] for every \(j\ge 1\) with some \(b_j\in\mathbb{C}\setminus\{0\}\). Fix \[ \delta=\inf \left\{t| t\in\mathbb{R},\sum_{j=1}^\infty \left(\frac{|b_j|}{|a_j|^{1+1/M}}\right)^t<+\infty\right\}. \] The authors prove that if \(f\) is a meromorphic function in \(\mathcal{B}\) for which \(\infty\) is not asymptotic value and its poles have uniformly bounded multiplicities, then \[ HD(\mathcal{I}(f))=\lim_{R\to\infty}HD(\mathcal{I}_R(f))=\delta, \] where \(HD(A)\) is Hausdorff dimension of the set \(A\).
