Jossen's conjecture on division and common zeros of E-functions
Jossen's conjecture on division and common zeros of E-functions
An -function is a power series satisfying the three defining growth, integrality, and differential-equation conditions. A unit is an -function of the form with and .
Jossen's conjecture. (i) If and are two -functions such that is entire, then is an -function. (ii) If two -functions and share at least one common root, then there exists a non-unit -function such that and are -functions.
Part (i) is known for exponential polynomials over and when is a polynomial; part (ii) is known when the common root is algebraic. The general conjecture remains open.
