A counterexample to Nevanlinna's century-old half-plane problem

Let $\mathbb{H}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\operatorname{Im}z>0\}$, and let $N(\mathbb{H})$ denote the Nevanlinna class in $\mathbb{H}$, consisting of meromorphic functions representable as quotients of two bounded analytic functions in $\mathbb{H}$. We construct a nonconstant meromorphic function $F$ on $\mathbb{C}$ such that $...
