Is it possible for a function, say f(x), to have a derivative equal to itself? The closest I can find is 2.7^x, but as soon as I try to inch closer with 2.75^x it starts diverging again

idk man u might be on to something
try (2.7182818284590452353602874713527)^x and see what that gets you

A more interesting question is to find a function such that any fractional derivaite is equal to the original function.
>>
f(x) = f'(x)

really not hard

Without looking it up, find a function such that f'(x) = f^-1 (x).
>>
>>8859155
(2/a)sqrt(ax) for all a in the reals.
>>
>>8858469
y=(dy/dx)
dy/y=dx
integrate both sides
ln|y|=x+c
y=ce^x

>>8859164
Huh? No, that's not correct.
>>
>>8858469
try again leonhard
>>
>>8859164
So taking a to be 1,

>f'(x) = 1/sqrt(x)
>f^-1(x) = (x^2)/4
No.

The expression f^-1(x) is the inverse function of f(x) such that f^-1(f(x)) = x. Like arcsine is to sine or like nth power is to nth root.

[math]f(x) = \varphi^{-\frac{1}{\varphi}} x^\varphi}[/math]
>>
>>8859234
Shit.

f(x) = \varphi^{-\frac{1}{\varphi}} x^{\varphi}}
>>
i think it's cool that you explored euler's number in a roundabout way and got to 2.7
>>
>>8859241
If this doesn't work I'm giving up.

[math]f(x) = \varphi^{-\frac{1}{\varphi}} x^{\varphi}}[/math]
>>
if u take the derivative of sin(x) 4 times you get sin(x). Does that count?
>>
>>8858469
nice b8 m8
>>
>>8859155
f=c*x^n
f'=c*n*x^(n-1)
f^(-1)=1/c*x^(1/n)
c*n*x^(n-1)=1/c*x^(1/n)
c^2*n*x^(n-1-1/n)=1
Only possible if coefficient is equal to 1 and exponent is equal to 0
c^2*n=1
c^2=1/n
n-1-1/n=0
n^2-n-1=0
n=(1+-sqrt(5))/2
c=n^(-.5)

>>8858498
oh wow it worked

[math] f(x)=\varphi^{-\frac{1}{\varphi}}x^{\varphi}} [/math]

whoa, slow down euler, i think you might be onto something
