tommy's simple solution ln^[n](2sinh^[n+x](z))

[tommy1729]

Consider f(z,x) = Lim(n --> oo)  ln^[n] ( 2sinh^[n+x] (z) ).

This simple Function satisfies exp(f(z,x)) = f(z,x+1).

So we have a simple superfunction that requires only the real iterations of 2sinh(z).

Notice lim ( n --> oo) 2sinh^[n]( 2^(z-n)) is a superf for 2sinh.

f(z,x) could be analytic for re(z) > 1.

Also , is it really new ?

Or is it the ( analytic continuation ? ) of the 2sinh method ?
It sure is very similar.

Mick wondered if F^[n] ( g^[n] ) is analytic for f = sqrt and g = x^2 +1.

consider ignoring z, and using the formal inverse Schroeder series (below) for putting 2sinh^[ox] into correspondence with 2^x. 
Then your sexp2sinh/TommySexp function is exactly:
\( k=f^{-1}(1);\;\;\;\text{TommySexp}(x)=f(k+x) \)
k=0.0678383660707522254065
This also happens to be the definition I personally used for your TommySexp function, but numerically, they are all exactly the same; infinitely differentiable but conjectured nowhere analytic.  
TommySexp(-0.5)=0.498743364531671
Kneser's sexp(-0.5)= 0.498563287941114

Since f(x) is only defined at the real axis, the term analytic continuation has no meaning.

"Mick wondered if F^[n] ( g^[n] ) is analytic for f = sqrt and g = x^2 +1", 
yes it is.  So long as you restrict yourself to the region where |g^[n]|>>1 then it will converge.  Have Mick ask on Mathstack if he wants more details.
