exponential

[‚ek·spə′nen·chəl]

(mathematics)

For a bounded linear operator A on a Banach space, the sum of a series which is formally the exponential series in A.

exponential

A function which raises some given constant (the "base") to the power of its argument. I.e.

f x = b^x

If no base is specified, e, the base of natural logarthims, is assumed.

exponential
