Entire Functions of Several Variables: Analogs of Wiman’s Theorem

This article considers a class of entire functions of several complex variables that are bounded in the Cartesian product of some half-planes. Each such hyperplane is defined on the condition that the real part of the corresponding variable is less than some r. For this class of functions, there are established analogs of the Wiman theorems. The first result describes the behavior of an entire function from the given class at the neighborhood of the point of the supremum of its modulus. The second result shows asymptotic equality for supremums of the modulus of the function and its real part outside some exceptional set. In addition, the analogs of Wiman’s theorem are obtained for entire multiple Dirichlet series with arbitrary non-negative exponents. These results are obtained as consequences of a new statement describing the behavior of an entire function F(z) of several complex variables z=(z1,…,zp) at the neighborhood of a point w, where the value F(w) is close to the supremum of its modulus on the boundary of polylinear domains. The paper has two moments of novelty: the results use a more general geometric exhaustion of p-dimensional complex space by polylinear domains than previously known; another aspect of novelty concerns the results obtained for entire multiple Dirichlet series. There is no restriction that every component of exponents is strictly increasing. These statements are valid for any non-negative exponents.
