Consider the random lacunary series $f(z) = \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{\xi_k}{\sqrt{k}} \, z^{2^k}$ on the unit disk, where $\{ \xi_k \}$ are independent standard complex Gaussian random variables. We show that almost surely, a.e. $\zeta \in \partial \mathbb{D}$ is a Plessner point of $f$, yet the image of every Stolz angle with vertex at $\zeta$ has asymptotic density zero. This gives a negative answer to questions of Collingwood and Baernstein concerning possible strengthenings of Plessner's theorem. In this example, for a.e. $\zeta \in \partial \mathbb{D}$, the non-tangential range of $f$ at $\zeta$ has zero area. The non-tangential range cannot be much smaller: we show that for an arbitrary holomorphic function on the unit disk, the non-tangential range has Hausdorff dimension 2 at almost every Plessner point.
For a countable family of hyperplanes $H_j\subset \mathbb{P}^m$, $j\in\mathbb{N}$, in general position and a linearly nondegenerate holomorphic curve $f\colon \mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{P}^m$ of finite lower order, we prove that the Nevanlinna defects $\delta_f(H_j)$ satisfy $$ \sum_{j=1}^{\infty}\delta_f(H_j)^{1/3}<\infty....
Let $F:\mathbb{R}^3\to\mathbb{R}$ be a polynomial that is irreducible over $\mathbb{R}$ with $\text{deg} F\geq2$. We prove that, for any finite $X\subset Z(F)$ that does not concentrate on affine lines, \[ E(X)=\#\{(a,b,c,d)\in X^4: a+b=c+d\}\ll_{\text{deg} F,\,\epsilon}(\# X)^{2+\epsilon}. \] In particular, this answe...
We study large values of quadratic Hecke $L$-functions in the conductor aspect. Let $K$ be a fixed number field, and assume GRH for its finite-order Hecke $L$-functions. In a fixed ray class component with conductor norm comparable to $X$, we prove that \[ \max_\chi L\left(\frac12+\frac A{\log_2X},\chi\right) \geq\exp\...
We construct a real meromorphic function $F$ on $\mathbb C$ such that $F^{-1}(\{0,1,\infty\})\subset\mathbb R$, while $F$ is not of bounded type in either half-plane. More strongly, for every $a\in\widehat{\mathbb C}\setminus\{0,1,\infty\}$, the $a$-point divisor in either half-plane fails the Blaschke condition. Thus...
We prove that for every integer $n\geq 2$ and $8\pi(n-1)<\rho<8\pi n$, the singular Liouville equation $\Delta u+\e^u=\rho\delta_0$ on a rectangular torus $E_{\mathrm{i}b}=\mathbb{C}/(\mathbb Z+\mathrm{i} b\mathbb Z)$ has exactly $n$ solutions, which are all axisymmetric. Together with previous results by Chen-Lin and...
A classical theorem of Maillet asserts that every nonconstant rational function over $\mathbb{Q}$ maps Liouville numbers to Liouville numbers. In 1984, Mahler asked whether a transcendental entire function can have the same property. We prove a strong smooth counterpart: writing $\mathscr{L}$ for the set of Liouville n...
