Exponential function

Exponential function or exp, can be defined as solution of differential equaiton

$\exp ^{\prime }(z)=\exp(z)$

with additional condition

$\exp(0)=1$

Exponential function is believed to be invented by Leonarf Euler some centuries ago. Since that time, it is widely used in technology and science; in particular, the exponential growth is described with such function.

Properties

exp is entire function.

For any comples $p$ and Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle q} , the basic property holds:

The definition allows to calculate all the derrivatives at zero; so, the Tailor expansion has form

In particular, the series converge for any real value of the argument.

Inverse function

Inverse function of the exponential is logarithm; for any complex Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle z\ne 0} , the relation holds:

Exponential also can be considered as inverse of logarithm, while the imaginary part of the argument is smaller than Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \pi} :

While lofarithm has cut at the negative part of the real axis, exp can be considered
