This article studies the problem of the uniqueness of meromorphic functions that weighted sharing three values which improve some results given by Yi [Theorem 4, Yi, H.X., 1995, Unicity theorems for meromorphic functions that share three values. Kodai Mathematical Journal, 18, 300-314] and Ueda [Ueda, H., 1983, Unicity theorems for meromorphic or entire functions II. Kodai Mathematical Journal, 6, 26-36] and other authors. An application of these new results, if f and g are two distinct nonconstant meromorphic functions sharing 0, 1 and ∞ CM, and a is a nonconstant rational function, then N2)(r,1/(g-a))= [image omitted] An example shows that the latter result is not true for some transcendental small functions of f and g.
