Abstract
In this paper we shall prove that if a non-constant meromorphic f and its k-th derivative f (k) (k ≥ 2) share the value \({a\not= 0,\infty\; CM}\) (IM) and if \({\bar{N}(r,\frac{1}{f})=S(r,f)\;\left(\bar{N}\left(r,\frac{1}{f}\right)+\bar{N}\left(r,\frac{1}{f^{(k)}}\right)=S(r,f)\right)}\), then \({f \equiv f^{(k)}}\). These results extend the results in Al-Khaladi (J Al-Anbar Univ Pure Sci 3:69–73, 2009).
