The asymptotic behaviour of certain entire functions of order zero

Summary A certain class of entire functionsF(s) of order zero which are asymptotically equal to the sum of just two neighbouring terms of their power series when |s| with |args| < – for any fixed > 0, is investigated. Which two terms one has to take, depends upons. It is shown that these functions have infinitely many negative zeros, and the asymptotic behaviour of the zeros is also determined.
