 meromorphic idea tommy1729 Ultimate Fellow Posts: 1,370 Threads: 335 Joined: Feb 2009 05/13/2009, 04:52 PM i was thinking about tetration and came up with important questions. for the 3rd time !! are there meromorphic functions f(x) so that they commute with exp(x) ? thus : exp(f(x)) = f(exp(x)) related 2nd question : t ( t(x) ) = exp(x) ( any real analytic t(x) ) g(x) a meromorphic function t(x) = inverse_g( 1-fixpoint-regular-half-iterate[ exp(g(x)) ] ) related 3rd question : q(x) a meromorphic function t ( t(x) ) = exp(x) ( any real analytic t(x) ) 1-fixpoint-regular-half-iterate[ exp(q(x)) ] = t( q(x) ) thanks in advance regards tommy1729 andydude Long Time Fellow Posts: 509 Threads: 44 Joined: Aug 2007 05/13/2009, 09:51 PM (This post was last modified: 05/13/2009, 09:55 PM by andydude.)

I'm not sure if this is important, but I think what is important is whether or not: "For all f(x) that satisfy $f(\exp(x)) = \exp(f(x))$, there exists a unique real number t such that $f(x) = \exp^t(x)$." I'm not convinced that this is always true for holomorphic/meromorphic functions. I'm sure its false for for arbitrary (or piecewise-defined) functions. I also think this would be useful in characterizing fractional iterates.

Andrew Robbins i kinda asked this question before - more or less - see thread : http://math.eretrandre.org/tetrationforu...hp?tid=270 yes , this is useful in characterizing fractional iterates. and i believe it is important for some half-iterate questions , though i cant prove it to be for tetration , but im working on it. regards tommy1729 « Next Oldest | Next Newest »
