Abstract
There have been lots of papers on the uniqueness theory of entire functions concerning shared-sets in the whole complex plane. However, it seems that the uniqueness theory in an angular domain is not widely investigated. In this paper, we study the uniqueness of entire functions concerning shared-sets in an angular domain instead of the whole complex plane, and we supply examples to show that Theorem 1 is sharp.
