Let $f$ be an entire function with zeros $z_{1}, z_{2}, \ldots$. Is it true that only finitely many zeros lie in the open unit disc? If so why?

The unit disc is compact, hence the zeros accumulate there. Now use the Identity Theorem.

0Thanks Hans! It's important here that the function is holomorphic in a neighborhoo$d$ of the unit disc. – 2012-01-17
