 Bummer!

I received an e-mail of Dan Asimov where he mentions that the continuous iterations of $b^x$ at the lower and upper real fixed points, $b=\sqrt{2}$, differ! He, Dean Hickerson and Richard Schroeppel found this arround 1991, however there is no paper about it. ...Shame! 18 years without advances. There should be a paper about it. Let us submit one right now! bo198214 Wrote:... The numerical computations veiled this fact because the differences are in the order of $10^{-24}$. ...It is beacuse you stay at the real axis. Get out from the real axis, and you have no need to deal with numbers of order of $10^{-24}$. bo198214 Wrote:... So the first lesson is: dont trust naive numerical verifcations. We have to reconsider the equality of our 3 methods and I guess there will show up differences too.What about the range of holomorphism of each of the 3 functions you mention? How about their periodicity? Do they have periods? Below, for base $b=sqrt{2}$, I upload the plots of two functions: $F_{b,4}$ which is $(\mathbb{C}, 0 \mapsto 3)$ superfunciton of $\exp_b$ such that $F_{b,4}(z^*)=F_{b,4}(z)^* ~\forall z \in \mathbb{C}$ and $F_{b,4}(z+T_4)=F_{b,4}(z)^*~\forall~ z \in \mathbb{C}$ where $T_4=2\pi i/ \ln(2\ln(2))$ . $F_{b,2}$ which is $(D, 0 \mapsto 3)$ superfunciton of $\exp_b$ such that $F_{b,2}(z^*)=F_{b,2}(z)^* ~\forall z \in D$ and $F_{b,2}(z+T_2)=F_{b,2}(z)^*~\forall~ z \in D$, where $T_2=2\pi i/ \ln(\ln(2))$ ; at least for $D=\{ z\in \mathbb{C}:~\Re(z)>2 \}$ .         [attachment=480]     In the first plot, the lines $p=\Re(F_{b,4}(x+ i y)=$const $q=\Im(F_{b,4}(x+ i y)=$const are shown. Thick curves correspond to integer valuse of p and q. In the second plot, the lines $p=\Re(F_{b,2}(x+ i y)=$const $q=\Im(F_{b,2}(x+ i y)=$const are shown. Thick curves correspond to integer valuse of p and q. The dashed lines show the cuts. On the third plot, the difference $F_{b,4}(x)-F_{b,2}(x))$ is shown in the same notations. The plot of this difference along the real axis is below:     Dashed: $y=F_{b,4}(x)$ Thin: $y=F_{b,2}(x)$ Thick: My approximation for $y=10^{25}(F_{b,4}(x)-F_{b,2}(x))$ I suspect, each of functions $F_{b,4}$ and $F_{b,2}$ is unique. P.S. Henryk, could you please help me to handle the sizes of the figures? I think, the same size would be better. « Next Oldest | Next Newest »
