Let $f$ be entire such that $\forall |z|\geq1$, $|f(z)|\leq e^{-|z|}$. Then how do we prove that $f$ is constant?
Can we map the complement of unit disk conformally onto the complex plane or the unit disk, by virtue of which we may then invoke Liouville's Theorem? Any ideas. Thanks beforehand
For $|z| \geq 1$ we have $|f(z)|\leq e^{-|z|} \leq 3 $.
Also, for $|z| \leq 1$, $|f|$ is bounded by a constant $C$, since the unit disc is compact (and $f$ is continuous).
So $|f(z)|\leq \max \{3, C \}$ on all of $\mathbb{C}$. Now Liouville's Theorem does the rest.
