Where V(t) is the derivative of S(t), and a(t) the derivative of V(t),
like in distance, velocity, and acceleration.
It seems you mean for R to change the polynomial p(t) into
the polynomial p(t + R), where you evaluate terms with an
R as R^n -> 0 for n>1, and terms*R*terms -> R*terms*terms
as another R of q(t) -> q(t + R).
For example, R(t^3) -> (t+R)^3 -> t^3 + 3t^2R + 3tR^2 + R^3 -> t^3 + R(3t^2)
and it already appears that in general we have R(p(t)) -> p(t) + R(p'(t))
-> p(t) + p'(t) + R(p''(t)) -> etc., stopping when the derivative
becomes a constant, as R(n) -> n.

I'm the one who thought it was a joke.  I still have my doubts.
What kinds of things can R$ multiply?  Reals, Complex numbers,
Functions, ...?
Your definition shows what it means when multiplied by itself (an operator)
and by a natural number.  How can I get from that to the multiplications of
polynomials that you go on to describe?  I

On examining the self destructive operator, it becomes clear that it is not
associative since
   (R$ * R$) * N = 0       and   R$ * ( R$ * N) = R$ * N = N
   
I guess that's what is meant by self destruction.  Does it have any
specific applications that anyone knows of?

|  | 	 The self-destructive operator can be operated on so called
    super-functions (any mathematical object wich can generate one or more
    functions through a certain mathematical transformation).
    	 To extract the information from the super-function we use the
    self-destructive uncopling operator, wich presents the following
    operational behavior:
    		
    		R$F(x) = F(x + R$)        (I)
    
    		R$ R$ = 0                 (II)
    
    		R$ N = N                  (III)
    
    		R$  R$  =  1              (IV)
                 x   y
    
    		
    	So, we can use the self-destructive operator to:
    
    		- Super-functions
    		- Construction of Pascal's Triangle
    		- Trigonometrical Super-functions
    		- Construction of Derivatives and Integral's
    		- Resolution of Differential Equations
    		- Non-linear Differential Equation Solutions
    		- Partial Differential Equations
    		- Lagrange's Mechanics
    		- etc.

I may be confused by the notation, but isn't (III) a special case of (I)
when f(x) = N?

The problem that .9 had, and I still have, is that a statement like
   R$ f(t) = ....
appears to be a general statement of which R$ N = N is a special case.
I get the impression that one must postpone evaluation of f() until all
applications of R$ have been resolved, but I see nothing that compels that
discipline.

No no :-) you are confusing, say, R$ 9 = 9, with the case of
`9':R->R given by `9'(t)=9, when R$ `9'(t) = `9'(t + R$) = 9
and so R$ `9' = `9'.

No, it's just that I thought it was neat that mathematicians
will use the same notation for a number as for a function.
In one sense I agree with .9 and .11, but in another I can
see how someone might consider R$ 9 = 9 not to have been
established by earlier rules that considered functions and
operators.  But just push the symbols around in the "obvious"
way and you get the "right" results.
It would be interesting to see a rigorous development of
this.

| 1510.15 | nullary functions. | CADSYS::COOPER | Topher Cooper | Wed Dec 04 1991 10:47 | 18 | 
|  | RE: .14 (Dan)
    I believe that the lambda calculus treats constants as nulary
    (no-argument) functions.  This provides a pretty clean
    recursion/induction termination because an n-ary function is treated
    recursively as a 1-ary function which processes the first argument and
    returns an (n-1)-ary function.  So "add(1 2)" is interpretted as
    follows:
	    add(1(), 2())
	    (add(1()))(2())
	    add-1(2())
	    3()
    And the interpretation stops at nullary functions, which are,
    nevertheless functions with all the properties of functions.
