It is proved that if f and g are transcendental entire functions and if Q is a non-constant polynomial, then the equation \(f(g(z))=Q(z)\) has infinitely many solutions. In particular, f(g(z)) has an infinite number of fix-points. This confirms a conjecture of \textit{F. Gross} [Factorization of meromorphic functions (1972; Zbl 0266.30006)].
