Let ff be a holomorphic function on a neighbourhood of aCa \in \mathbb{C}. Assume that ff has a zero of order kk at aa with k1k \geqslant 1. Show that there exist ε>0\varepsilon>0 and δ>0\delta>0 such that for any bb with 0<b<ε0<|b|<\varepsilon there are exactly kk distinct values of zD(a,δ)z \in D(a, \delta) with f(z)=bf(z)=b.
