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