Unilateral Laplace transform
Let $\mathbb{T}$ be a time scale and let $s \in \mathbb{T}$. If $f \in $$C_{rd}$(\mathbb{T},\mathbb{C})$ ([[continuity | rd-continuous]]) then we define the Laplace transform of $f$ about $s$ by the formula <sup>[[#potltots|[pp.793]]]</sup> '"`UNIQ-MathJax2-QINU`"' where $z$ is in a domain $D \subset \mathbb{C}$ for which the integral converges. Let $\alpha$ be a non-negative [[regressive_function | regressive]] constant larger than $s$. We use the notation "$f(t;s)$" to denote we are thinking of $f$ as a function of $t$ with parameter $s$. ='"`UNIQ--h-0--QINU`"'Properties of Laplace Transforms= [[Unilateral Laplace transform is a linear operator]]<br /> <div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:800px"> <strong>Proposition:</strong> The Laplace transform of a [[delta derivative]]: '"`UNIQ-MathJax3-QINU`"' <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> <strong>Proof:</strong> Compute using integration by parts, '"`UNIQ-MathJax4-QINU`"' proving the claim. █ </div> </div> Assume there exist $M,\alpha > 0$ with '"`UNIQ-MathJax5-QINU`"' for all $k=0,1,2,\ldots$.

These formulas are analogues of the formulas $\dfrac{d}{dz} e^{z(t-t_0)}=(t-t_0)e^{z(t-t_0)}$ and $\dfrac{d}{dz} e^{-z(t-t_0)}=-(t-t_0)e^{-z(t-t_0)}$ which occur in the case $\mathbb{T}=\mathbb{R}$. An important difference from the classical case is that $t-t_0$ has no dependence on the variable $z$, while $m_z(t,t_0)$ does. =='"`UNIQ--h-1--QINU`"'Convergence== We define the minimal graininess function '"`UNIQ-MathJax8-QINU`"' Let $h\geq 0$.
