Zeros of nonpositive type of generalized Nevanlinna functions with one negative square

A generalized Nevanlinna function Q(z) with one negative square has precisely one generalized zero of nonpositive type in the closed extended upper halfplane. The fractional linear transformation defined by Qτ(z)=(Q(z)−τ)/(1+τQ(z)), τ∈R∪{∞}, is a generalized Nevanlinna function with one negative square. Its generalized zero of nonpositive type α(τ) as a function of τ defines a path in the closed upper halfplane. Various properties of this path are studied in detail.
