Yes, my question is general, because I am looking for a totally general solution for all the kind of problem like this.
Anyway, I found a nicer formula for my question instead of steinix-ankh, like this:
\( f(x) ^ o ^N = g(x) \)
According to the knowledge of f and g, what is N? How can I calculate it?
For example:
\( 2x ^ o ^N = x^2 \)
Thus N must be = log2(x), but here is the question why and how can I know it from?
For a fixed point of zero, with a fixed point multiplier of 2, the general solution for the Abel function generated at the fixed point of zero is:
\( f(z) = 2x + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n \)
\( \alpha(z) = \log_2(S(z))\;\;\; \) This is the Abel function for f(z) \( \;\alpha(f(z)) = \alpha(z)+1 \)
where S(z) is the formal Schröder equation solution;
\( S(f(z)) = 2\cdot S(z)\;\;\; S(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}b_n z^n\;\; \)
This is sometimes called Koenig's solution. It can be modified to work with any fixed point multiplier of k, |k|<>1. Using pari-gp one can easily write a program to generate the formal power series for S(x) given f(x).
