Abstract

The aim of this paper is to consider certain conditions on the coefficient A of the differential equation f″ + Af = 0 in the unit disc which place all normal solutions f in the union of Hardy spaces or result in the zero-sequence of each non-trivial solution being uniformly separated. The conditions on the coefficient are given in terms of Carleson measures.
