Abstract

We prove some results on the zeros of functions of the form f(z)=n=1anzznf(z) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{a_n}{z - z_n}, with complex ana_n, using quasiconformal surgery, Fourier series methods, and Baernstein's spread theorem. Our results have applications to fixpoints of entire functions.
