Mittag-Leffler: constructing analytic functions with prescribed isolated singular parts

Mittag-Leffler's1884 memoir constructs a single-valued analytic function with prescribed singular parts at a countable isolated setQ, regular away fromQand its accumulation setQprime. Subtracting suitable finite Taylor/rational correction terms from each prescribed part makes their series locally uniformly convergent. Finite polynomial principal parts give the familiar meromorphic-function construction; entire functions of1/(z−a)allow isolated essential singular parts as well. Section 1also treats the stated connected-domain boundary formulation and describes the remaining freedom by addition of a regular function.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

Accumulation points ofQare excluded; a set merely countable but not isolated is insufficient, and local-uniform convergence is away from the excluded singular set. A finite singular-part polynomial produces a pole, while a transcendental entire function of1/(z−a)generally produces an essential singularity: these cases are not interchangeable. The meromorphic function is not unique without further normalization; on the whole plane two solutions with the same principal parts differ by an entire function. This record covers Section 1, not all 79 pages, later sheaf-cohomological formulations, interpolation with arbitrary zero controls or every general Riemann surface.
