The Attempt at a Solution


I tried plugging in the power series for f(z) and tried/know it is related to Liouville's Theorem somehow but I am just not gaining any traction. A picture of the question is attached below:

Make r big.
Your statement of the problem is wrong if you really mean the inequality of question 21 (in your attempt at a solution). A bounded entire function is a constant.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
