Let be an entire function, not a polynomial. Does there exist a locally rectifiable path tending to infinity such that, for every , the integral
is finite?

An accepted solution exists. The statement is true.
Proved. The site labels the problem PROVED (page last edited 19 October 2025) and credits Lewis, Rossi and Weitsman [LRW84] with the general case, after Zhang [Zh77] had settled the entire functions of finite order and Huber [Hu57] had found, for each fixed , a path on which that one integral is finite. The accepted claim page Lewis, Rossi and Weitsman 1984 records the result, on the refereed venue and the site's acceptance; the frontmatter standing derives from it. Zhang's finite-order case is the accepted partial claim Zhang 1977, on its journal publication.
