Value distribution of q-differences of meromorphic functions in several complex variables

Abstract

In this paper, we study $q$-difference analogues of several central results in value distribution theory of several complex variables such as $q$-difference versions of the logarithmic derivative lemma, the second main theorem for hyperplanes and hypersurfaces, and a Picard type theorem. Moreover, the Tumura-Clunie theorem concerning partial $q$-difference polynomials is also obtained. Finally, we apply this theory to investigate the growth of meromorphic solutions of linear partial $q$-difference equations.
