Statement

Suppose (zn) is a sequence of (possibly repeating) complex numbers that does not cluster in C: in other words, |zn| if the sequence is infinite. Then, there exists an entire function <math<f:\mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}</math> such that for any zC, the order of zero for f at z equals the number of times z occurs in the sequence (zn).

Importance

This solves Cousin's multiplicative problem in a particular case over C.
