John Frederick William Herschel

Summary

John Frederick William Herschel,  Proceedings of the Royal Society of London (1833)

“ Herschel relates to the celebrated theorems of Lagrange, expressing the connection between simple exponential indices and those of differentiation and of integration.
Since the theorems have been demonstrated by various subsequent analysts, as by Laplace, by Arbogast, and by Dr. Brinkley, the author takes them for granted; but observes that in their original form they are but abridged expressions of their meaning; and that in order to become practically useful, their exponential functions require further development.
