We present an algorithm to determine the set of essential singular solutions of a differential equation. Essential singular solutions can be informally described as follows: the general solution of a differential equation is usually described as a solution depending on a number of arbitrary constants equal to the order of the differential equation. The essential singular solutions are those tha...

In 1922, J. F. Ritt [13] proved two remarkable theorems on decompositions of polynomial maps of C[x] into irreducible polynomials (with respect to the composition ◦ of maps). Briefly, the first theorem states that in any two decompositions of a given polynomial function into irreducible polynomials the number of the irreducible polynomials and their degrees are the same (up to order). The secon...

Some basic properties relating to relative lower order of entire functions of two complex variables are discussed in this paper.

In this paper, we introduce the idea of generalized relative order (respectively generalized relative lower order) of entire functions of two complex variables. Hence, we study some growth properties of entire functions of two complex variables on the basis of the definition of generalized relative order and generalized relative lower order of entire functions of two complex variables.
