Separation of zeros of translates of polynomials and entire functions. (English) Zbl 0880.30008

For an entire function \(f\) with zeros (a), \(\delta(f)= \inf\{|a_i-a_j|: i\neq j\}\) is called the separation of zeros. In his earlier paper [Am. Math. Mon. 100, No. 3, 272-273 (1993; Zbl 0767.26010)] the author showed that \(\delta (f-kf) >\delta (f)\) for all \(k \mathbb{R}\), and in two later papers [J. Aust. Math. Soc., Ser. A 59, No. 2, 330-342 (1995; Zbl 0873.26006), Proc. Edinb. Math. Soc., II. Ser. 39, No. 3, 357-363 (1996; Zbl 0853.26009)] gave estimates of the increase of the separation of zeros. In the present paper the author gives the extensions of these results to entire functions of order less than 2.
