Let $\mathbb{T}$ be a time scale. Define $\xi_h(z) := \dfrac{1}{h} \log(1+zh)$. Let $p \in \mathcal{R}(\mathbb{T},\mathbb{R})$ be a regressive function. The exponential function $e_p \colon \mathbb{T} \times \mathbb{T} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is defined as

$$e_p(t,s) := \exp \left( \displaystyle\int_s^t \xi_{\mu(\tau)}(p(\tau))\Delta \tau \right)$$

for $s,t \in \mathbb{T}$. It turns out that $e_p$ is the unique solution to the dynamic initial value problem $$y^{\Delta} = py; y(s)=1.$$


Properties of Exponential Functions

For all $p,q \in \mathcal{R}$ and $t,s \in \mathbb{T}$,

  • $e_p(t,r)e_p(r,s)=e_p(t,s)$ (semigroup property)
  • $e_0(t,s)=1, e_p(t,t)=1$
  • $e_p(\sigma(t),s)=(1+\mu(t)p(t))e_p(t,s)$
  • $\dfrac{1}{e_p(t,s)}=e_{\ominus p}(t,s)$
  • $e_p(t,s)e_q(t,s)=e_{p \oplus q}(t,s)$
  • $\dfrac{e_p(t,s)}{e_q(t,s)} = e_{p \ominus q}(t,s)$
  • $\left( \dfrac{1}{e_p(\cdot,s)} \right)^{\Delta} = -\dfrac{p(t)}{e_p^{\sigma}(\cdot,s)}$

Examples of Exponential Functions

Time Scale Exponential Functions
$\mathbb{T}=$ $e_p(t,s)=$
$\mathbb{R}$ $e_p(t,s)= \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \exp \left( \displaystyle\int_s^t p(\tau) d \tau \right) & t>s \\ 1 & t=s \\ \exp \left( -\displaystyle\int_t^s p(\tau) d\tau \right) & t<s \end{array} \right.$
$h\mathbb{Z}$ $\begin{array}{ll} e_p(t,s) &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\int_{s}^{t} \dfrac{1}{\mu(\tau)} \log(1 + hp(\tau)) \Delta \tau \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=\frac{s}{h}}^{\frac{t}{h}-1} \log(1+hp(hk)) \right) \\ &= \displaystyle\prod_{k=\frac{s}{h}}^{\frac{t}{h}-1} \left( 1+hp(hk) \right) \\ \end{array}$
$\mathbb{Z}^2$ $\begin{array}{ll} e_p(t,s) &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\int_s^t \dfrac{1}{\mu(\tau)} \log(1 + p(\tau) \mu(\tau)) \Delta \tau \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=\sqrt{s}}^{\sqrt{t}-1} \mu(k^2) \dfrac{1}{\mu(k^2)} \log ( 1 + p(k^2)\mu(k^2)) \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=\sqrt{s}}^{\sqrt{t}-1} \log ( 1 + p(k^2)\mu(k^2)) \right) \\ &= \displaystyle\prod_{k=\sqrt{s}}^{\sqrt{t}-1} 1 + p(k^2)(2k+1) \end{array}$
$\mathbb{H}$ $\begin{array}{ll} e_p(t,s) &= e_p \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^n \dfrac{1}{k}, \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^m \dfrac{1}{k} \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\int_{ \sum^m \frac{1}{k}}^{\sum^n \frac{1}{k}} \dfrac{1}{\mu(\tau)} \log(1 + \mu(\tau) p(\tau)) \Delta \tau \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=m}^{n-1} \log \left[1 + \mu \left( \displaystyle\sum_{j=1}^k \dfrac{1}{j} \right) p \left( \displaystyle\sum_{j=1}^k \dfrac{1}{j} \right) \right] \right) \\ &= \exp \left( \displaystyle\sum_{k=m}^{n-1} \log \left[1 + \dfrac{1}{k+1} p \left( \displaystyle\sum_{j=1}^k \dfrac{1}{j} \right) \right] \right) \\ &= \displaystyle\prod_{k=m}^{n-1} 1 + \dfrac{1}{k+1} p \left( \displaystyle\sum_{j=1}^k \dfrac{1}{j} \right) \\ \end{array}$
