 Removing the branch points in the base: a uniqueness condition? fivexthethird Junior Fellow Posts: 9 Threads: 3 Joined: Nov 2013 03/19/2016, 10:44 AM (This post was last modified: 03/19/2016, 11:04 AM by fivexthethird.) In many cases, when dealing with the math behind tetration, a recurring feature is the logarithm of the fixed point multiplier $\log(\kappa)$, which I will call from here on $\lambda$ Since the fixed point multiplier is determined by the base, $\lambda$ is really just the base in disguise: $\lambda = \log(-\text{W}(-\log(b)))$ But all three functions have branch points that correspond to the ones in tetration's base: the inner log to 0, the productlog to $\eta$, the outer log to 1. Thus, I think that it's reasonable to desire the following to be the case for any reasonable tetration: Let x > 0 and tet(x,b) be our tetration solution. Then $\text{tet}(x,\exp(\exp(\lambda-\exp(\lambda))))$ analytically continues to a function without branch points in $\lambda$ So in other words, the branch we're on should entirely depend on what branches of those three functions we pick. « Next Oldest | Next Newest »
