An exploration of combined dynamic derivatives on time scales and their applications (Q859540): Difference between revisions

The purpose of the paper is to explore basic properties of the first and second order \(\diamond_\alpha\) derivatives which are linear combinations of \(\Delta\) and \(\nabla\) dynamic derivatives on time scales. Definitions of the \(\diamond_\alpha\) derivatives are introduced and basic properties of the combined dynamic derivatives, as well as differences between the combined and standard dynamic derivatives are investigated. Proper differentiation rules for the \(\diamond_\alpha\) derivatives are established. The change of variable formulae for the corresponding integrals are shown. The authors also present a number of computational experiments with the combined derivatives and integrals.
