Asymptotic Values of Functions with Polynomial Schwarzian Derivative
Abstract: It is a classical result of Rolf Nevanlinna that an entire
function whose Schwarzian derivative is a polynomial of degree $d$ has
exactly $d+2$ asymptotic values. In this talk I will sketch a proof of this
result and remark on the role of Stokes' phenomenon in understanding the
set of asymptotic values.
