X Abstract

In the paper [J. Ritt, Prime and composite polynomials, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 23 (1922) 51–66] Ritt constructed the theory of functional decompositions of polynomials with complex coefficients. In particular, he described explicitly polynomial solutions of the functional equation f ( p ( z ))= g ( q ( z )) . In this paper we study the equation above in the case where f , g , p , q are holomorphic functions on compact Riemann surfaces. We also construct a self-contained theory of functional decompositions of rational functions with at most two poles generalizing the Ritt theory. In particular, we give new proofs of the theorems of Ritt and of the theorem of Bilu and Tichy.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
