Item Open Access Distance between a maximum modulus point and zero set of an entire function(Taylor & Francis, 2003-07) Ostrovskii, I.; Üreyen, A. E.Let f be an entire function of finite positive order. A maximum modulus point is a point w such that j fðwÞj maxfjfðzÞj: jzjjwjg. We obtain lower bounds for the distance between a maximum modulus point w and the zero set of f. These bounds are valid for all sufficiently large values of jwj.Item Open Access Distance between a maximum point and the zero set of an entire function(2006) Üreyen, Adem ErsinWe obtain asymptotical bounds from below for the distance between a maximum modulus point and the zero set of an entire function. Known bounds (Macintyre, 1938) are more precise, but they are valid only for some maximum modulus points. Our bounds are valid for all maximum modulus points and moreover, up to a constant factor, they are unimprovable. We consider entire functions of regular growth and obtain better bounds for these functions. We separately study the functions which have very slow growth. We show that the growth of these functions can not be very regular and obtain precise bounds for their growth irregularity. Our bounds are expressed in terms of some smooth majorants of the growth function. These majorants are defined by using orders, types, (strong) proximate orders of entire functions.Item Open Access Typography and ideology: typeface design as a statement(2012-09) Yıldırım, AlperThe aim of this thesis is to investigate the theories and methodologies of type design within the context of ideology. It questions the role of typefaces in communication and whether ideologies are embedded in typefaces, culturally, socially or due to their designers' intention. This work follows the discussions on the neutrality of typefaces as they are more than a tool in communication; instead, they are individual message bearers. The project aims to depict the typefaces as personal artistic statements. The project concludes with four different typeface designs which emphasize form, content, synthesis and context respectively; thus, the project establishes different ways of communication with the audience.
