On the solubility of transcendental equations in commutative C*-algebras

It is known that $C(X)$ is algebraically closed if $X$ is a locally connected, hereditarily unicoherent compact Hausdorff space. For such spaces, we prove that if $F:C(X) \to C(X)$ is given by an everywhere convergent power series with coefficients in $C(X)$ and satisfies certain restrictions, then it has a root in $C(X)$. Our results generalizes the monic algebraic case.
