The Ax-Grothendieck result states that any polynomial injective function from $\mathbb{C}^n$ to itself is surjective. Is there such a statement for entire functions ?

    $\begingroup$ I think Picard's theorem prevents such a result for $n=1$. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 7, 2016 at 15:47

    $\begingroup$ See math.stackexchange.com/questions/29758/entire-1-1-function for the case n=1. They are not only surjective, they are even linear. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @Julien: do you have an explicit counter example for $n=1$ ? $\endgroup$
