Meromorphic Functions Sharing a Nonzero Value with their Derivatives

Let f be a transcendental meromorphic function of nite order in the plane such that f (m) has nitely many zeros for some positive integer m ≥ 2: Suppose that f (k) and f share a CM, where k ≥ 1 is a positive integer, a 0 is a nite complex value. Then f is an entire function such that f (k) − a = c(f − a); where c 0 is a nonzero constant. The results in this paper are concerning a conjecture of Bruck (5). An example is provided to show that the results in this paper, in a sense, are the best possible.
