  2. Are there reasons to prefer one definition of the exponential …

    Jan 3, 2023 · My question : (1) Do these definitions exhaust the ways the exponential function can be defined? (2) Are these definitions actually different at least conceptually ( though denoting …

  3. Show that natural exponential function is well-defined

    Aug 23, 2023 · For every real number $x$, we define the natural exponential function to be $e^ {x} = \exp (x)$. Where $\exp$ denotes the inverse function of $\ln$, and $e$ is a number such …

  4. Derivative of exponential function proof - Mathematics Stack …

    So here's my proof, using only the definition of the exponential function and elementary properties of limits. We use the following definition of the exponential function:

  6. calculus - Limit of exponential and logarithm function

    Mar 5, 2023 · We can solve this limit by using the natural logarithm and the limit definition of the exponential function. Let's begin by taking the natural logarithm of the expression inside the limit:

  7. exponential function - Compound interest derivation of $e ...

    Feb 16, 2013 · Just a quick note on the comment, there is no need to assume that the exponential is differentiable. Simply define the exponential function $\exp (x) = \sum_ {i=0}^ {\infty}$ and all …

  8. How can I define $e^x$ as the value of infinite series?

    You should look at the Wikipedia article about characterizations of the exponential function; it has five. As for your question about whether a function can be expressed as a series or not, to …

  9. real analysis - Possible definitions of exponential function ...

    Nov 7, 2018 · The exponential function is the unique smooth group isomorphism from the additive group of reals to the multiplicative group of positive reals whose derivative at zero is one.

  10. Determining whether the function is exponential?

    Aug 7, 2020 · By definition, an exponential function is where the independent variable (the x-value) is the exponent. While you're not wrong in this respect, this only really holds if the …
