The Denjoy-Carleman-Ahlfors theorem implies that if the set of all z for which |f(z)|>R has N components for some R>0, then the order of f is at least N/2. More precisely, we have log log M(r,f) > (N/2) log r - O(1), where M(r,f) denotes the maximum modulus of f. We show that if f does not grow much faster than this, then the escaping set and the Julia set of f have positive Lebesgue measure. However, as soon as the order of f exceeds N/2, this need not be true. The proof requires a sharpened form of an estimate of Tsuji related to the Denjoy-Carleman-Ahlfors theorem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-04-08T09:46:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37F10", "30D05", "30D15" ], "keywords": [ "julia set", "positive measure", "transcendental entire function", "denjoy-carleman-ahlfors theorem implies", "asymptotic values" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0904.1295A" } } }
