Abstract

Let U be an invariant component of the Fatou set of an entire transcendental function f such that the iterates of f tend to ∞ in U. Let P(f) be the closure of the set of the forward orbits of all critical and asymptotic values of f. We show that there exists a sequence pn∈P(f) such that dist(pn, U) = o(|pn|), where dist(·, ·) denotes Euclidean distance. On the other hand, we give an example where dist (P(f), U) > 0. In this example, U is bounded by a Jordan curve.
