In this paper, by using the difference analogue of Nevanlinna's theory, the authors study the shared-value problem concerning two higher order difference operators of a transcendental entire function with finite order. The following conclusion is proved: Let f(z) be a finite order transcendental entire function such that λ(f - a(z)) < ρ(f), where a(z)(∈ S(f)) is an entire function and satisfies ρ(a(z)) < 1, and let 𝜂(∈ ℂ) be a constant such that ∆_𝜂ⁿ⁺¹ f(z) ≢ 0. If ∆_𝜂ⁿ⁺¹ f(z) and ∆_𝜂ⁿ f(z) share ∆_𝜂ⁿ a(z) CM, where ∆_𝜂ⁿ a(z) ∈ S ∆_𝜂ⁿ⁺¹ f(z), then f(z) has a specific expression f(z) = a(z) + Be^Az, where A and B are two non-zero constants and a(z) reduces to a constant.

We consider the delay differential equations $$b(z)w(z+1)+c(z)w(z-1)+a(z)\frac{w'(z)}{w^k(z)}=\frac{P(z, w(z))}{Q(z, w(z))}$$, where k ∈ {1, 2}, a(z), b(z) ≢ 0, c(z) ≢ 0 are rational functions, and P(z, w(z)) and Q(z, w(z)) are polynomials in w(z) with rational coefficients satisfying certain natural conditions regarding their roots. It is shown that if this equation has a non-rational meromorphic solution w with hyper-order ρ2(w) < 1, then either deg_w(P) = deg_w(Q) + 1 ≤ 3 or max{deg_w(P), deg_w(Q)} ≤ 1. In addition, it is shown that in the case max{deg_w(P), deg_w(Q)} = 0 the equations above can have such a solution, with an additional zero density requirement, only if the coefficients of the equation satisfy certain strict conditions.

In this paper we investigate the growth of finite order solutions of the differential equation $f^{(k)}\;+\;A_{k-1}(Z)f^{(k-l)}\;+\;{\cdots}\;+\;A_1(z)f^{\prime}\;+\;A_0(z)f\;=\;F(z)$, where $A_0(z),\;{\cdots}\;,\;A_{k-1}(Z)\;and\;F(z)\;{\neq}\;0$ are entire functions. We find conditions on the coefficients which will guarantees the existence of an asymptotic value for a transcendental entire solution of finite order and its derivatives. We also estimate the lower bounds of order of solutions if one of the coefficient is dominant in the sense that has larger order than any other coefficients.

We investigate the non-existence of finite order transcendental entire solutions of Fermat-type differential-difference equations [f(z)f'(z)]ⁿ + P²(z)f^m(z + 𝜂) = Q(z) and [f(z)f'(z)]ⁿ + P(z)[∆_𝜂f(z)]^m = Q(z), where P(z) and Q(z) are non-zero polynomials, m and n are positive integers, and 𝜂 ∈ ℂ \ {0}. In addition, we discuss transcendental entire solutions of finite order of the following Fermat-type differential-difference equation P²(z) [f^(k)(z)]² + [αf(z + 𝜂) - 𝛽f(z)]² = e^r(z), where $P(z){\not\equiv}0$ is a polynomial, r(z) is a non-constant polynomial, α ≠ 0 and 𝛽 are constants, k is a positive integer, and 𝜂 ∈ ℂ \ {0}. Our results generalize some previous results.

Let A be the class of univalent functions f(z)=z＋${\alpha}$$_2$z$^2$＋${\alpha}$$_3$z$^3$＋…(1.1) which are analytic in the unit disk $\Delta$= {z：│z│＜1}. Let S＊(p) be the subclass of A composing of functions which are starlike of order $\rho$. A function f(z) belonging to the class A is said to be starlike of order $\rho$ ($\rho$(equation omitted) 0) if and only if z$\^$-l/ f(z) (equation omitted) 0 (z$\in$$\Delta$) and (equation omitted (1.2).(omitted)

For a second order linear differential equation f" + A(z)f' + B(z)f = 0, with A(z) and B(z) being transcendental entire functions under some restrictions, we have established that all non-trivial solutions are of infinite order. In addition, we have proved that these solutions, with a condition, have exponent of convergence of zeros equal to infinity. Also, we have extended these results to higher order linear differential equations.

We show that when n > m, the following delay differential equation fⁿ(z)f'(z) + p(z)(f(z + c) - f(z))^m = r(z)e^q(z) of rational coefficients p, r doesn't admit any transcendental entire solutions f(z) of finite order. Furthermore, we study the conditions of α₁, α₂ that ensure existence of transcendental meromorphic solutions of the equation fⁿ(z) + f^n-2(z)f'(z) + P_d(z, f) = p₁(z)e^α₁(z) + p₂(z)e^α₂(z). These results have improved some known theorems obtained most recently by other authors.

In this paper we discuss the classical problem of finding conditions on the entire coefficients A(z) and B(z) guaranteeing that all nontrivial solutions of f" + A(z)f' + B(z)f = 0 are of infinite order. We assume A(z) is an entire function of completely regular growth and B(z) satisfies three different conditions, then we obtain three results respectively. The three conditions are (1) B(z) has a dynamical property with a multiply connected Fatou component, (2) B(z) satisfies T(r, B) ~ log M(r, B) outside a set of finite logarithmic measure, (3) B(z) is extremal for Denjoy's conjecture.

In this article, we investigate the growth of meromorphic solutions of $${\alpha}(z)(\frac{{\Delta}_c{\eta}}{{\eta}})^2\,+\,(b_2(z){\eta}^2(z)\;+\;b_1(z){\eta}(z)\;+\;b_0(z))\frac{{\Delta}_c{\eta}}{{\eta}} \atop =d_4(z){\eta}^4(z)\;+\;d_3(z){\eta}^3(z)\;+\;d_2(z){\eta}^2(z)\;+\;d_1(z){\eta}(z)\;+\;d_0(z),$$ where a(z), b_i(z) for i = 0, 1, 2 and d_j (z) for j = 0, ..., 4 are given functions, △_cη = η(z + c) - η(z) with c ∈ ℂ\{0}. In particular, when the a(z), the b_i(z) and the d_j(z) are polynomials, and d₄(z) ≡ 0, we shall show that if η(z) is a transcendental entire solution of finite order, and either deg a(z) ≠ deg d₀(z) + 1, or, deg a(z) = deg d₀(z) + 1 and ρ(η) ≠ ½, then ρ(η) ≥ 1.

A normalized analytic function f, defined on the unit disk 𝔻, is starlike of reciprocal order α > 1 if the real part of f(z)/(zf'(z)) is less than α for all z ∈ 𝔻. By utilizing the theory of differential subordination, we establish several sufficient conditions for analytic functions defined on 𝔻 to be starlike of reciprocal order. Additionally, we investigate the conditions under which the function f(z)/(zf'(z)) is subordinate to the function 1 + (α - 1)z. This subordination, in turn, is sufficient for the function f to be starlike of reciprocal order α > 1.
