Introduction P Let f (z1 , z2 ) = am1 m2 z1m1 z2m2 be a function of the complex variables z1 and z2 , regular for | zt | ≤ rt , t = 1, 2. If r1 and r2 can be taken arbitrarily large, then f (z1 , z2 ) represents an entire function of the complex variables z1 and z2 . Following Bose and Sharma [1], we define the maximum modulus of f (z1 , z2 ) as M (r1 , r2 ) = max |f (z1 , z2 )| , t = 1, 2. |zt |≤rt The order ρ of the entire function f (z1 , z2 ) is defined as [1, p. 219]: log log M (r1 , r2 ) = ρ. log(r1 r2 ) r1 ,r2 →∞ lim sup For 0 < ρ < ∞, the type τ of an entire function f (z1 , z2 ) is defined as [1, p. 223]: log M (r1 , r2 ) lim sup = τ. r1ρ + r2ρ r1 ,r2 →∞ Bose and Sharma [1], obtained the following characterizations for order and type of entire functions of two complex variables.

Since f (z1 , z2 ) = we have P∞ m,n=0 amn z1m z2n is an entire transcendental function, p |amn | = 0. m+n lim (2.32) m,n→∞ Therefore f (z1 , z2 ) ∈ B(p, q, κ), 0 < p < q ≤ ∞; q, κ ≥ 1.

Now we prove sufficiency. Assume that the condition (2.31) is satisfied. ρ Then it follows that {Em,n (f, Hq )}1/(m+n) → 0 as m, n → ∞. This yields lim m,n→∞ q (m+n) Em,n (f, Hq ) = 0. This relation and the estimate |am+1n+1 (f )| ≤ Em,n (f, Hq ) yield the inequality (2.32). This implies that f (z1 , z2 ) ∈ Hq is an entire transcendental function.
