In this note we observe the relation between theta functions and known examples for Fermat-type functional equations , especially the one given by Gundersen [Meromorphic solutions of f 6 + g 6 + h 6 ≡ 1, Analysis (Munich) 18(3) (1998), pp. 285–290] when (n, k) = (3, 6), say here. We recall how Gundersen constructs his solutions, and then observe the concrete expression of by means of the theta functions. Its image in ℙ3(ℂ) is observed. We discuss the relationship between an entire map given by or by Green [Some Picard theorems for holomorphic maps to algebraic varieties, Amer. J. Math. 97 (1975), pp. 43–75] and the second main theorems due to Cartan, Gundersen and Hayman or Eremenko and Sodin. In this purpose, the Wronskian for is calculated. Remarks A–C are observations concerning other known examples for (n, k) = (3, 4), (4, 8), (2, 3), respectively. We give some more remarks on this topic through and these examples. An optimistic conjecture is also posed concerning ‘truncations’.
