This is a survey of results on the following problem. Let X be a simply connected Riemann surface spread over the Riemann sphere. How are the properties of the uniformizing function of this surface related to the geometric properties of the surface? 2000 Mathematics Subject Classication: 30D30, 30D35, 30D45, 30F45.
Critical values of generating functions of totally positive sequences
Parametrization of various classes of entire and meromorphic functions by critical values is interesting from the point of view of geometric theory of meromorphic functions [5, 10, 16] and is also
Log-Riemann Surfaces

We introduce the notion of log-Riemann surfaces. These are Riemann surfaces given by cutting and pasting planes together isometrically, and come equipped with a holomorphic local diffeomorphism to C
Painleve I, Coverings of the Sphere and Belyi Functions
The theory of poles of solutions of Painleve I (PI) is equivalent to the Nevanlinna problem of constructing a meromorphic function ramified over five points—counting multiplicities—and without

Given any infinite tree in the plane satisfying certain topological conditions, we construct an entire function $f$ with only two critical values $\pm 1$ and no asymptotic values such that

We discuss a class of regions and conformal mappings which are useful in several problems of approximation theory, harmonic analysis and spectral theory.1 MSC: 30C20, 41A10, 47B36, 41A50.
Complex flows, escape to infinity and a question of Rubel
Let f be a transcendental entire function. It was shown in a previous paper [12] that the holomorphic flow ż = f(z) always has infinitely many trajectories tending to infinity in finite time. It will
The order conjecture fails in S
We construct an entire function f with only three singular values, whose order can change under a quasiconformal equivalence.
The Schwarzian derivative and the Wiman-Valiron property
Let f be a transcendental meromorphic function in the plane such that f has finitely many critical values, the multiple points of f have bounded multiplicities, and the inverse function of f has
Resurgent deformation quantisation

We construct a version of the complex Heisenberg algebra based on the idea of endless analytic continuation. The algebra would be large enough to capture quantum effects that escape ordinary formal
Analytic Continuation of Eigenvalues of a Quartic Oscillator

We consider the Schrödinger operator on the real line with even quartic potential x4 + αx2 and study analytic continuation of eigenvalues, as functions of parameter α. We prove several properties of

The Ahlfors theory of covering surfaces yields a striking generahzation of Picard's theorem. We discuss whether Picard type theorems where certain derivatives omit values admit similar generahzations.
