Let H denote the set of all entire functions of a single complex variable equipped with the topology of convergence uniform on all compact subsets of C, the set of complex numbers. Then an entire function f is mean periodic if the subspace spanned by f and its complex translates is not dense in H. It was shown by Schwartz [13, p. 922] in 1947, to whom this definition is due, that any such function is the limit in H of a certain sequence of exponential polynomials.
