Specialty Definition: Entire function

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In complex analysis, a function is called entire if it is defined on the whole complex plane and is holomorphic everywhere. Typical examples of entire functions are the polynomials, the exponential function, and sums, products and compositions of these. The trigonometric and hyperbolic functions are also entire, but they are mere variations of the exponential function. Every entire function can be represented as a power series which converges everywhere. Neither the natural logarithm nor the square root functions are entire.

The most important fact about entire functions is Liouville's theorem: an entire function which is bounded must be constant. This can be used for an elegant proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. Picard's little theorem is a considerable strengthening of Liouville's theorem: a non-constant entire function takes on every complex number as value, except possibly one. The latter exception is illustrated by the exponential function, which never takes on the value 0.

A function that is defined on the whole complex plane except for a set of poless is called a meromorphic function.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

SERIAL, n. A literary work, usually a story that is not true, creeping through several issues of a newspaper or magazine. Frequently appended to each installment is a "synposis of preceding chapters" for those who have not read them, but a direr need is a synposis of succeeding chapters for those who do not intend to read them. A synposis of the entire work would be still better. The late James F. Bowman was writing a serial tale for a weekly paper in collaboration with a genius whose name has not come down to us. They wrote, not jointly but alternately, Bowman supplying the installment for one week, his friend for the next, and so on, world without end, they hoped. Unfortunately they quarreled, and one Monday morning when Bowman read the paper to prepare himself for his task, he found his work cut out for him in a way to surprise and pain him. His collaborator had embarked every character of the narrative on a ship and sunk them all in the deepest part of the Atlantic.
