Extract

The classical statement of the lemma in question [7], [3] is about meromorphic functions f on ℂ and says that

for all r > 0, with the possible exception of a set of finite Lebesgue measure. Here T(r, f) is the Nevanlinna characteristic of f. The lemma plays an important role in value distribution theory.
