In this paper, the paired Hayman conjecture of different types are considered, namely, the zeros distribution of f(z)ⁿL(g) - a(z) and g(z)ⁿL(f) - a(z), where L(h) takes the derivatives h^(k)(z) or the shift h(z+c) or the difference h(z+c)-h(z) or the delay-differential h^(k)(z+c), where k is a positive integer, c is a non-zero constant and a(z) is a nonzero small function with respect to f(z) and g(z). The related uniqueness problems of complex delay-differential polynomials are also considered.

Let f be a meromorphic function of finite order ρ with few poles in the sense S_λ(r, f) := O(r^λ+ε) + S(r, f), where λ < ρ and ε ∈ (0, ρ - λ), and let g(f) := Σ^k_j=1b_j(z)f^(k_j)(z + c_j) be a linear delay-differential polynomial of f with small meromorphic coefficients b_j in the sense S_λ(r, f). The zero distribution of fⁿ(g(f))^s - b₀ is considered in this paper, where b₀ is a small function in the sense S_λ(r, f).

We consider the delay differential equations $$b(z)w(z+1)+c(z)w(z-1)+a(z)\frac{w'(z)}{w^k(z)}=\frac{P(z, w(z))}{Q(z, w(z))}$$, where k ∈ {1, 2}, a(z), b(z) ≢ 0, c(z) ≢ 0 are rational functions, and P(z, w(z)) and Q(z, w(z)) are polynomials in w(z) with rational coefficients satisfying certain natural conditions regarding their roots. It is shown that if this equation has a non-rational meromorphic solution w with hyper-order ρ2(w) < 1, then either deg_w(P) = deg_w(Q) + 1 ≤ 3 or max{deg_w(P), deg_w(Q)} ≤ 1. In addition, it is shown that in the case max{deg_w(P), deg_w(Q)} = 0 the equations above can have such a solution, with an additional zero density requirement, only if the coefficients of the equation satisfy certain strict conditions.
