By substituting (z d/k! for x in the equation (114, we can represent z as a sum of kkth powers of nonconstant linear polynomials Newman and Slater credit this finite difference argument to S Hurwitz who has conjectured that the number k of kth powers of nonconstant polynomials is the minimum needed for the representation of the identity function z Also, Heilbronn has conjectured that k is minimal even if entire functions are allowed [8] We can consider other classes for Waring s problem We denote the sets of polynomials, entire functions, rational functions, and meromorphic functions by P, E, R and M respectively as in [9] By a meromorphic function we mean a meromorphic function in the whole complex plane The finite difference argument implies that Waring s problems for P, E, R and M are solvable Theorem 11 [9] Suppose that k and that n Let f 1, f,,f n be nonconstant functions in class C satisfying (115 n f i (z k = z,

We quote what Gundersen summarized in his survey paper [5] Consider the equation (17 f 1 k + f k + f 3 k =1 The following theorem is a collection of results of Toda [1], Fujimoto [3], Green [4], Newman and Slater [11] and Hayman[9] Theorem 13 For the four classes P, E, R, M, we have the following results for equation (17: (a If k 9, then there do not exist three nonconstant meromorphic functions f 1, f, f 3 that satisfy (17 (b If k 8, then there do not exist three nonconstant rational functions f 1, f, f 3 that satisfy (17

6 1538 D-I KIM Suppose that p is the smallest number n satisfying (13 Then p = k Proof The finite difference argument implies that the identity function z can be always represented by a sum of kkth powers of nonconstant linear polynomials Thus, p k Ifk =andp =1,thenweget f 1 = z, which is impossible Hence p andsop = Consider the case k 3 We suppose that p<kand will obtain a contradiction Write f i (z =a i + b i z for all i According to the minimality of p, all the f k i are linearly independent Thus we can have a i =0 for at most one i Thenf i (z k =(a i + b i z k =a k i (1 + (b i /a i z k if a i 0 Suppose that a k i = α i and that b i /a i = β i for each i Suppose that a p =0anda i 0for1 i p 1 Then p f i (z k = p (a i + b i z k p 1 = b k p z k + p 1 = b k p z k + = b p k z k + j=0 α i (1 + β i z k k ( α i k j j=0 β j i z j k ( ( p 1 k z j j α i β i j Since the righthand side is equal to z, we get, in particular, the system of equations (14 p 1 β i j α i =0 for j k 1 Since p<k,weusep 1 equations Now consider α i for 1 i p 1 as unknowns Then the coefficients form a square matrix M 1 whose

12 1544 D-I KIM then (34 does not hold This is a contradiction Assume that z 0 =0 There exists i such that s i = m Now, by choosing i so that s i = m, we get h i (z =f i (zz s i = ( a ti z t i + a ti 1z t i a si z s i z s i = a ti z t i s i + a ti 1z t i s i a si Since a si 0,wehaveF i (z 0 =h i (z 0 k = h i (0 k = a k si 0,whichis a contradiction The functions F 1, F,,F p form a linearly independent set Otherwise, one of the functions is a linear combination of the others Then z can be represented as a sum of p 1 kth powers This contradicts the minimality of p There exists i with t i 1 Otherwise, we get t i 0 for all i Then we obtain f k 1 + f k + + f k p = O(1 as z But the righthand side is z, which tends to by (3 This is a contradiction We write α =degh 1 =max 1 i p deg h i without loss of generality There exists h j with j 1suchthatdegh j = α Otherwise, deg h 1 > max 1<j p deg h j We write h 1 (z = a α z α + Then h 1 (z k = a k α z αk + Thena k α z αk cannot be canceled by h k +h k k 3 + +h p and z 1 mk since 1 mk αk If F i (z 0 = 0 with the order of zero d, then we count this zero min{d, p 1} times instead of the order of z 0 for n i (r Each zero of F i (z =(f i (z z m k has order k at least Thus d is a multiple of k If k p 1, then we do not need to check this case because z always can be represented by k polynomials Suppose that k>p 1 Since p 1 <k d, wehavemin{d, p 1} = p 1andthepointz 0 is counted p 1timesforN i (r Then we get N i (r p 1 = 1 p 1 ( r ( r 0 1 k 0 = 1 ( k N r, 1 F i n i (t n i (0 t dt + n i (0 log r n (t, (1/F i n (0, (1/F i t dt + n (0, 1Fi log r
13 WARING S PROBLEM 1545 since z 0 is counted once for (N i (r/(p 1 and d/k times for (1/kN (r, (1/F i So we have N i (r p 1 k N (r, 1Fi By Jensen s formula, we have N (r, 1Fi = T (r, 1Fi m (r, 1Fi = T (r, F i +O(1 m (r, 1Fi Since F i is entire, we get Hence N (r, 1Fi T (r, F i =N(r, F i +m(r, F i = 1 π = 1 π = 1 π 1 π π 0 π 0 π 0 π 0 log + F i (re iθ dθ ( log + F i (re iθ log + 1 F i (re iθ dθ + O(1 log F i (re iθ dθ + O(1 sup 1 i p = T (r+o(1 Therefore, for each i with 1 i p, wehave log F i (re iθ dθ sup log F i (0 + O(1 1 i p (35 N i (r p 1 T (r+o(1 k Consider r n p+1 (t n p+1 (0 N p+1 (r = dt + n p+1 (0 log r t 0 Since F p+1 (z =z 1 mk and 1 mk 1+k>p,wegetn p+1 (0 = p 1 and (36 N p+1 (r =(p 1 log r

16 1548 D-I KIM as r Ifp =,weobtaink p(p 1 = If p>, the righthand side is negative for large r, so that k < p(p 1 This completes the proof of Theorem 31 Since the class L of Laurent polynomials is not closed under composition, we cannot deduce the representability of all functions in L from that of z On the other hand if W C (k denotes the minimum number n, such that any element of the class C can be represented as the sum of nkth powers of functions in C, then W L (k W P (k k In fact if f(z =P (z/z nk is a Laurent polynomial, where P (z isan ordinary polynomial, then we have P (z = p (P ν (z k ν=1 where p = W P (k andthep ν are polynomials, Then f(z = p ( Pν (z ν=1 is the required representation of f(z in terms of Laurent polynomials Thus W L (k p = W P (k z n k 33 The representation of a constant by Laurent polynomials Theorem 331 Suppose that k 3 and that n Let f 1,f,,f n be nonconstant Laurent polynomials satisfying (331 n f i (z k =1 Suppose that at least one of the f i is not a polynomial and that p is the smallest number n satisfying (331 Then p p>kfor k 3, ie, p>1/+ k +1/4 for k 3
17 WARING S PROBLEM 1549 The proof of Theorem 331 is similar to that of Theorem 31, so we omit it 34 The proof of Hayman s theorem We conclude this paper by discussing the proof of Hayman s theorem [9, p],whichis Theorem 11 in this paper, for polynomials Suppose that k and that n Let f 1,f,,f n be nonconstant polynomials satisfying n f i (z k = z Suppose that p is the smallest number n satisfying the above equation Since F 1 = f k 1,F = f k,,f p = f k p and F p+1 = z, weget (341 N i (r p 1 T (r+o(1 k for 1 i p, and (34 N p+1 (r =logr Hayman considered only (F 1 /F 1 (F /F (F p/f p Δ(z = (F 1 /F 1 (F /F (F p /F p (F (p 1 1 /F 1 (F (p 1 /F (F p (p 1 /F p and set (343 S(r = 1 π log Δ(re iθ dθ + O(1 π 0 Then ( Δ(z =O z (p(p 1/ Now, we estimate Δ(z more precisely We define d i = degf i, where 1 i p, and F i = a di z d i + a di 1z d i 1 + Then F i = a d i d i z d i 1 + a di 1(d i 1z d i + Hence, F i = a d i d i z di 1 + a di 1(d i 1z di + F i a di z d i + adi 1z d = d i i 1 + z + O(z
