1.2.9 Numeri Mirabiles

The last two sec­tions re­vealed how the tan­gent space and Lie al­ge­bras are con­nect­ed, that being, the group de­riv­a­tive is a phase shift that de­pends on the Lie al­ge­bra of the said spe­cif­ic group. Al­ge­bra­ic layers exist be­neath the tan­gent space, which will be con­sid­ered in this sec­tion as we push deeper into the func­tion­al spaces. In the last sec­tion, we con­sid­ered the fol­low­ing group de­riv­a­tive op­er­a­tion

G′(A1[3](it))=iA1[3]G(A1[3](it))=(i0000i0i0)(eit000cos⁡(t)isin(t)0isin(t)cos⁡(t)),\begin{array}{r} G^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} i & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & i \\ 0 & i & 0 \end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix} e^{it} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos(t) & isin(t) \\ 0 & isin(t) & \cos(t) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.166)

which served to con­cep­tu­al­ize the tan­gent space and its geo­met­ric arrange­ment to that of the Lie al­ge­bra. The de­riv­a­tive op­er­a­tion G′(A1[3](it))G^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) rep­re­sents a ve­loc­i­ty in the group space, which we denote as G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right), and set it equal to G′(A1[3](it))G^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) from the ex­am­ple above

G(vˆ)=G′(A1[3](it))=iA1[3]G(A1[3](it)).\begin{array}{r} G\left( \widehat{v} \right) = G^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right). \end{array}
(1.2.167)

Matrix mul­ti­pli­ca­tion of the group G(A1[3](it))G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) by the Lie al­ge­bra re­veals the phase-shift and dy­nam­i­cal trigono­met­ric de­pen­den­cy con­ferred from this sub­group onto G(A1[3](it))G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right), as seen in the con­cise de­riv­a­tive form

G(vˆ)=iAj[3]G(A1[3](it))=(ie(it)000−sin(t)icos(t)0icos(t)−sin(t)),\begin{array}{r} G\left( \widehat{v} \right) = iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} ie^{(it)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & - sin(t) & {icos}(t) \\ 0 & {icos}(t) & - sin(t) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.168)

which is equiv­a­lent to G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right) in a phase-shift­ed form

G(vˆ)=G(A1[3](it+iπ2))=(e(it+iπ2)000cos⁡(t+π2)isin(t+π2)0isin(t+π2)cos⁡(t+π2)).\begin{array}{r} G\left( \widehat{v} \right) = G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} e^{\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.169)

As we are aware, the group G(A1[3](it))G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) is the ex­po­nen­tial map­ping of its Lie al­ge­bra A1[3](it)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it), and this re­la­tion­ship holds for G(A1[3](it+iπ2))G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right)with its Lie al­ge­bra A1[3](it+iπ2)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right). The matrix log­a­rithm rep­re­sents the in­verse of the ex­po­nen­tial map­ping, and eval­u­at­ing the log­a­rithm of G(A1[3](it+iπ2))G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) yields the Lie al­ge­bra we ar­rived at via the tan­gent space con­sid­er­a­tion

ln⁡(G′(A1[3](it)))=ln⁡(G(A1[3](it+iπ2)))=(it+iπ20000it+iπ20it+iπ20).\begin{array}{r} \ln\left( G^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) \right) = \ln\left( G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} it + \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & it + \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.170)

This should not be con­sid­ered solely as the phase-shift­ed A1[3](it)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) al­ge­bra, but in­stead as a phase-shift­ed group rep­re­sent­ing the tan­gent space ve­loc­i­ty, 𝔗(vˆ)\mathfrak{T}\left( \widehat{v} \right)

𝔗(vˆ)=ln⁡(G(vˆ))=ln⁡(iAj[3]G(A1[3](it)))=ln⁡(iAj[3])+ln⁡(G(A1[3](it)))\mathfrak{T}\left( \widehat{v} \right) = \ln{\left( G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right) = \ln\left( iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) \right)} = \ln\left( iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) + \ln\left( G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) \right)
=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20)+(it0000it0it0)=A1[3](iπ2)+A1[3](it).\begin{array}{r} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} it & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & it \\ 0 & it & 0 \end{pmatrix} = A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) + A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it). \end{array}
(1.2.171)

The tan­gent ve­loc­i­ty is equal to the sum of its Lie al­ge­bra A1[3](it)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) and the phase-shift de­pen­den­cy A1[3](iπ2)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right), which is con­ferred on A1[3](it)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) by the sub­al­ge­bra de­not­ed as Φ1(A1[3](it))\Phi_{1}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right)

Φ1(A1[3](it))=ln⁡(A1[3](it))=(iπ2+ln⁡(t)000ln⁡(t)iπ20iπ2ln⁡(t)),\begin{array}{r} \Phi_{1}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = \ln\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} + \ln(t) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \ln(t) & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & \ln(t) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.172)

which after set­ting t=1t = 1, Φ1\Phi_{1} be­comes

Φ1(A1[3](iπ2))=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20).\begin{array}{r} \Phi_{1}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.173)

The Φ1(A1[3](iπ2))\Phi_{1}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) al­ge­bra re­sults from the eval­u­a­tion of the matrix log­a­rithm of a matrix log­a­rithm func­tion

Φ1(A1[3](iπ2))=ln⁡(ln⁡(G(iA1[3]))),\begin{array}{r} \Phi_{1}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) = \ln\left( \ln\left( G\left( {iA}_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.174)

and if we were to carry out re­peat­ed it­er­a­tive matrix log­a­rithm func­tions in­def­i­nite­ly

ln⁡(ln(ln(ln…(iA1[3]))=ϕ∞(iA1[3]),\begin{array}{r} \ln\left( ln(ln(ln\ldots\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) \right) = \phi_{\infty}\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right), \end{array}
(1.2.175)

the re­sult­ing al­ge­bra will con­verge to the ap­prox­i­mate form

ϕ∞(iA1[3])≈(0.3181+1.3372i0000.31811.3372i01.3372i0.3181).\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) \approx \begin{pmatrix} 0.3181 + 1.3372i & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0.3181 & 1.3372i \\ 0 & 1.3372i & 0.3181 \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.176)

Per­haps more strik­ing is that all num­bers, except for one, zero, ee, and any num­bers re­lat­ed to ee in the form ee⋱e,e^{e^{\ddots^{e}}},appear to con­verge to either

ϕ∞(z)≈0.318131505204…+1.337235701430…\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) \approx 0.318131505204\ldots + 1.337235701430\ldots \end{array}
(1.2.177)

for Im(z)∈ℝ+Im(z) \in \mathbb{R}^{+}, or to

ϕ∞(z)≈0.318131505204…−1.337235701430…\begin{array}{r} {\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) \approx 0.318131505204\ldots - 1.337235701430\ldots \end{array}
(1.2.178)

for Im(z)∈ℝ−Im(z) \in \mathbb{R}^{-}. The in­tu­ition behind these two num­bers is that they are the two so­lu­tions to the equa­tion

ln⁡(z)=z,\begin{array}{r} \ln(z) = z, \end{array}
(1.2.179)

which means they also rep­re­sent the two so­lu­tions to

ez=z,\begin{array}{r} e^{z} = z, \end{array}
(1.2.180)

given that for the de­fined zz

ez=eln⁡(z)=z.\begin{array}{r} e^{z} = e^{\ln(z)} = z. \end{array}
(1.2.181)

The num­bers ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z), ϕ∞(z){\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) are re­lat­ed to the mul­ti­val­ued Lam­bert WW func­tion, also known as the prod­uct log func­tion, which, for w,z∈ℂw,z\in \mathbb{C}, have the prop­er­ty that the ex­pres­sion

wew=z\begin{array}{r} we^{w} = z \end{array}
(1.2.182)

holds if and only if for some in­te­ger kk, the fol­low­ing ex­pres­sion holds

w=Wk(z),\begin{array}{r} w = W_{k}(z), \end{array}
(1.2.183)

where Wk(z)W_{k}(z) is con­verse­ly re­lat­ed to the wewwe^{w} func­tion. For real number values, the ex­pres­sion

yey=x\begin{array}{r} ye^{y} = x \end{array}
(1.2.184)

has so­lu­tions for yy if x≥−1ex \geq \frac{- 1}{e}. This end­point at −1e- \frac{1}{e} occurs when y=−1y = - 1,

(−1)e−1=−1e,\begin{array}{r} ( - 1)e^{- 1} = - \frac{1}{e}, \end{array}
(1.2.185)

and the pos­si­ble so­lu­tions for xx are well-demon­strat­ed in the ex­pres­sion's plot in the Figure 1.2.7.

Figure
Figure 1.2.7 – The ex­pres­sion yey=xye^{y} = x, plot­ted.

We can con­sid­er the range of the Lam­bert WW func­tion in the com­plex plane by set­ting w=(a+ib)w = (a + ib), for a,b∈ℝa,b\in \mathbb{R}, to ex­press wew=zwe^{w} = z, as

wew=(a+ib)e(a+ib),\begin{array}{r} we^{w} = (a + ib)e^{(a + ib)}, \end{array}
(1.2.186)

and re­arrange the ex­pres­sion

(a+ib)e(a+ib)=(a+ib)ea(cos⁡(b)+isin(b))(a + ib)e^{(a + ib)} = (a + ib)e^{a}\left( \cos(b) + isin(b) \right)
→ea(acos(b)−bsin(b))+iea(bcos(b)+asin(b)),\begin{array}{r} \mathbf{\rightarrow}e^{a}\left( {acos}{(b) - bsin(b)} \right) + ie^{a}\left( {bcos(b) + asin}(b) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.187)

where one por­tion of the result is real, and the other part is imag­i­nary. The imag­i­nary por­tion will equal zero when

bcos(b)+asin(b)=0,\begin{array}{r} {bcos(b) + asin}(b) = 0, \end{array}
(1.2.188)

and the real branch­es of the Lam­bert WW func­tion's range are found by solv­ing for the aa vari­able

a=−bcos⁡(b)sin⁡(b)→a=−bcot(b).\begin{array}{r} a = - b\frac{\cos(b)}{\sin(b)} \rightarrow a = - {bcot}(b). \end{array}
(1.2.189)

Sim­i­lar­ly, by set­ting the real por­tion equal to zero, we find the imag­i­nary branch­es in the range are

acos(b)−bsin(b)=0→a=btan(b).\begin{array}{r} {acos}{(b) - bsin(b)} = 0 \rightarrow a = btan(b). \end{array}
(1.2.190)

We plot the range of the Lam­bert WW func­tion in Figure 1.2.8, where imag­i­nary branch­es are shown in red, and the real branch­es are shown in blue. Re­turn­ing to the num­bers ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) and ϕ∞(z){\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z), we find they are en­dowed with the ex­tra­or­di­nary prop­er­ty that they main­tain the same result for their proper log­a­rithm and ex­po­nen­tial map­pings

ϕ∞(z)=ln⁡(ϕ∞(z))=eϕ∞(z),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) = \ln\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) = e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)}, \end{array}
(1.2.191)
ϕ∞(z)=ln⁡(ϕ∞(z))=eϕ∞(z),\begin{array}{r} {\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) = \ln\left( {\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) \right) = e^{{\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z)}, \end{array}
(1.2.192)

im­ply­ing these num­bers rep­re­sent a meet­ing point in com­plex space of the ex­po­nen­tial and log­a­rithm func­tions. These num­bers can be ex­pressed as equiv­a­lent to the fol­low­ing neg­a­tive-valued Wk(z)W_{k}(z) func­tions

ϕ∞(z)=−W−1(−1)≈0.318131505204764+1.337235701430689i,\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) = - W_{- 1}( - 1) \approx 0.318131505204764 + 1.337235701430689i, \end{array}
(1.2.193)
ϕ∞(z)=−W0(−1)≈0.318131505204764−1.337235701430689i.\begin{array}{r} {\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) = - W_{0}( - 1) \approx 0.318131505204764 - 1.337235701430689i. \end{array}
(1.2.194)
Figure
Figure 1.2.8 – The WW func­tion's range shows real branch­es in blue and imag­i­nary branch­es in red.

To fur­ther con­sid­er the unique prop­er­ties of these num­bers, we start by find­ing the polar form of ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z)

ϕ∞(z)=reiθ=Re(ϕ∞(z))2+Im(ϕ∞(z))2eiatan2(Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z))),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) = re^{i\theta} = \sqrt{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2} + Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2}}e^{iatan2\left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right)}, \end{array}
(1.2.195)

where the radial com­po­nent is r≈1.374557010743707r \approx 1.374557010743707, and since Re(ϕ∞(z))>0Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) > 0, the angle ar­gu­ment is found by the in­verse tan­gent func­tion

θ=atan2(Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z)))=tan−1⁡(Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z)))≈1.337235701430689.\begin{array}{r} \theta = atan2\left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right) = \tan^{- 1}{\left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right) \approx 1.337235701430689}. \end{array}
(1.2.196)

What stands out at first glance in the ap­prox­i­mat­ed ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) polar form

ϕ∞(z)≈(1.374557010743707)ei(1.337235701430689),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) \approx (1.374557010743707)e^{i(1.337235701430689)}, \end{array}
(1.2.197)

is that θ\theta is equal to the imag­i­nary part of the com­plex number, ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z),

θ=tan−1⁡(Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z)))=Im(ϕ∞(z)).\begin{array}{r} \theta = \tan^{- 1}\left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right) = Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right). \end{array}

co­in­cid­ing with the polar angle ar­gu­ment result ϕ∞(θ)\phi_{\infty}(\theta) de­not­ed.

We con­sid­er the tan−1⁡(ba)\tan^{- 1}\left( \frac{b}{a} \right) func­tion by look­ing at its plot Figure 1.2.7 for com­plex num­bers a+iba + ib, and a,b∈ℝa,b\in \mathbb{R}. The point with co­or­di­nates (ba,θ)\left( \frac{b}{a},\theta \right), co­in­cid­ing with the angle vari­able ϕ∞(θ),\phi_{\infty}(\theta),is dis­cerned

(ba,θ)=((Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z))),tan−1⁡(Im(ϕ∞(z))Re(ϕ∞(z))))≈(4.203405445713347,1.337235701430689).\begin{array}{r} \left( \frac{b}{a},\theta \right) = \left( \left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right),\tan^{- 1}\left( \frac{Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right) \right) \approx \left( \begin{array}{r} 4.203405445713347, \\ 1.337235701430689 \end{array} \right). \end{array}
(1.2.199)

Eval­u­a­tion of the radial com­po­nent for ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z), yields

|ϕ∞(z)|=Re(ϕ∞(z))2+Im(ϕ∞(z))2≈1.374557010743707,\begin{array}{r} \left| \phi_{\infty}(z) \right| = \sqrt{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2} + Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2}} \approx 1.374557010743707, \end{array}
(1.2.200)

having the unique prop­er­ty that its log­a­rithm equals the real part of the ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) func­tion

ln⁡(|ϕ∞(z)|)=Re(ϕ∞(z))≈0.318131505204764.\begin{array}{r} \ln\left( \left| \phi_{\infty}(z) \right| \right) = Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) \approx 0.318131505204764. \end{array}
(1.2.201)

When com­bined with the polar form's angle, this means that ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) can be ex­pressed as the ex­po­nen­tial prod­uct of its real and imag­i­nary parts

ϕ∞(z)=eRe(ϕ∞(z))ei(Im(ϕ∞(z))),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) = e^{Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}e^{i\left( Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) \right)}, \end{array}
(1.2.202)

and given that

ϕ∞(z)=−W−1(−1)=Re(−W−1(−1))+i(Im(−W−1(−1))),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) = - W_{- 1}( - 1) = Re\left( - W_{- 1}( - 1) \right) + i\left( Im\left( - W_{- 1}( - 1) \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.203)

we have a better math­e­mat­i­cal un­der­stand­ing of how ϕ∞(z)=ln⁡(ϕ∞(z))=eϕ∞(z).\phi_{\infty}(z) = \ln\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) = e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)}.Con­cern­ing the ex­pres­sion wew=zwe^{w} = z, and the Lam­bert WW func­tion, the num­bers ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) and ϕ∞(z){\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) rep­re­sent the two con­form­ing and con­ju­gate­ly-re­lat­ed so­lu­tions for ww

mean­ing these are the two so­lu­tions of the ex­pres­sion wew=w2=ln⁡(ww).we^{w} = w^{2} = \ln\left( w^{w} \right).The well-known omega con­stant de­fines the unique real number so­lu­tion to the ex­pres­sion

Anal­o­gous to ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) and ϕ∞(z),{\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z),the fol­low­ing Ω\Omega-re­lat­ed iden­ti­ties are a direct con­se­quence of ΩeΩ=1\Omega e^{\Omega} = 1

With the Ω\Omega iden­ti­ties in mind, we define the ϕ∞−1(iA1[3])\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) al­ge­bra as the in­def­i­nite­ly re­peat­ed neg­a­tive matrix log­a­rithm func­tion

(1.2.210)

which in­ter­est­ing­ly, "con­verges" to two al­ter­nat­ing con­ju­gate­ly-re­lat­ed points com­posed by the al­ge­bras

ϕ∞−1(iA1[3])=(ϕ∞−1(z)000Re(ϕ∞−1(z))Im(ϕ∞−1(z))0Im(ϕ∞−1(z))Re(ϕ∞−1(z))),   (ϕ∞−1(z)000Re(ϕ∞−1(z))Im(ϕ∞−1(z))0Im(ϕ∞−1(z))Re(ϕ∞−1(z))),\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & Re\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) \right) & Im\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) \right) \\ 0 & Im\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) \right) & Re\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) \right) \end{pmatrix},\ \ \ \begin{pmatrix} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & Re\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) \right) & Im\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) \right) \\ 0 & Im\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) \right) & Re\left( \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) \right) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.211)

and each result ϕ∞−1(iA1[3])\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) switch­es be­tween the two forms each it­er­a­tion. Specif­i­cal­ly, the number ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z), within six­teen digits, is ap­prox­i­mate­ly equal to

ϕ∞−1(z)≈−0.722816312568512− 1.929267496331939i,\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) \approx - 0.722816312568512 - \ 1.929267496331939i, \end{array}

for which, ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) is the com­plex con­ju­gate of ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z). The num­bers ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z) and ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) rep­re­sent so­lu­tions of the Lam­bert WW func­tion for wew=zwe^{w} = z, and sat­is­fy the uni­tary con­di­tion that |z|=1|z| = 1. The two points on the unit circle char­ac­ter­iz­ing their re­sult­ing zz values are

(1.2.214)

The ϕ∞−1(z),ϕ∞−1(z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right) num­bers have ex­po­nen­tial map­pings which equal the in­verse of their re­spec­tive com­plex con­ju­gates

For com­plete­ness, there are also two ad­di­tion­al nu­mer­ic coun­ter­parts

ϕ∞−1(−z)=0.722816312568512 + 1.929267496331939i,\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}( - z) = 0.722816312568512\ + \ 1.929267496331939i, \end{array}

(1.2.222)

which are al­ter­nat­ing "con­ver­gence" points of the in­fi­nite­ly it­er­at­ed log­a­rithm func­tion

ϕ∞−1(−(z,z))=−ln⁡(−ln(−ln(−ln(…(−ln(−z)).\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( - \left( z,\overline{z} \right) \right) = - \ln\left( - ln( - ln( - ln(\ldots( - ln( - z) \right). \end{array}
(1.2.223)

Next, we would like to con­sid­er where these num­bers sit in the range of the Lam­bert WW func­tion. Since Ω\Omega is a real con­stant, it is straight­for­ward to see that it sits on the pos­i­tive real-axis of the range. It turns out the nu­mer­ic values of ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) and ϕ∞(z){\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) sit on the (−W−1,−W0)({- W}_{- 1}, - W_{0}) branch­es of Lam­bert WW func­tion's range, which we recall were the so­lu­tions de­rived from the ex­pres­sion (a+ib)e(a+ib)=z(a + ib)e^{(a + ib)} = z

a=−bcos⁡(b)sin⁡(b)→a=−bcot(b).\begin{array}{r} a = - b\frac{\cos(b)}{\sin(b)} \rightarrow a = - {bcot}(b). \end{array}

Figure
Figure 1.2.8 – The WW func­tion's real range around the origin, with pos­i­tive branch­es in red

and neg­a­tive branch­es in blue, where the fol­low­ing con­stants lie on the branch cuts:

Ω=W0(1), ϕ∞(z)=−W−1(−1),ϕ∞(z)=−W0(−1),ϕ∞(−z)=W−1(−1),ϕ∞(−z)=W0(−1).\Omega = W_{0}(1),\ \phi_{\infty}(z) = - W_{- 1}( - 1),{\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) = - W_{0}( - 1),{\phi_{\infty}( - z) = W}_{- 1}( - 1),{{\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}( - z) = W}_{0}( - 1).

Figure 1.2.8 rep­re­sents a plot of the range of the Lam­bert WW func­tion cen­tered around the origin, where ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) and ϕ∞(z){\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) are lo­cat­ed on the neg­a­tive real-valued branch­es, cor­re­spond­ing to the num­bers W−1(−1),W_{- 1}( - 1),and W0(−1)W_{0}( - 1) on pos­i­tive real-valued branch­es. These num­bers, when taken to­geth­er, have the fol­low­ing in­verse re­la­tion­ships

ϕ∞(z)×W−1(−1)=1,\begin{array}{r} \phi_{\infty}(z) \times W_{- 1}( - 1) = 1, \end{array}
(1.2.225)
ϕ∞(z)×W0(−1)=1.\begin{array}{r} {\overline{\phi}}_{\infty}(z) \times W_{0}( - 1) = 1. \end{array}
(1.2.226)

In Figure 1.2.9, we plot the points rep­re­sent­ing the in­verse num­bers ϕ∞−1(z),ϕ∞−1(z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right), ϕ∞−1(−z),ϕ∞−1(−z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}( - z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( - \overline{z} \right), which also sit on the ±(W0,W−1)\pm \left( W_{0},W_{- 1} \right) real branch cuts in the Lam­bert WW func­tion's range. The take­away from the pre­vi­ous two plots is that the ±(W0,W−1)\pm \left( W_{0},W_{- 1} \right) branch cuts rep­re­sent the con­ver­gence points of the in­fi­nite­ly it­er­at­ed log­a­rithm of num­bers and their in­vers­es, and these branch cuts also serve as the con­ver­gence point of the log­a­rithm and ex­po­nen­tial func­tions. The ex­pres­sion, wew=zwe^{w} = z is rooted in the log­a­rithm func­tion, and it is not dif­fi­cult to see that it is a par­tic­u­lar form of the log­a­rith­mic spiral. For com­plex num­bers, the log­a­rith­mic spiral is de­fined as

ae(k+i)θ=z,\begin{array}{r} ae^{(k + i)\theta} = z, \end{array}
(1.2.227)

where zz rep­re­sents the dis­tance from the origin in the com­plex plane, θ\theta is the angle from the real-axis, and a>0,k∈ℝa > 0,k\in \mathbb{R} are con­stants.

Figure
Figure 1.2.9 – The WW func­tion's real range cen­tered at the origin, with pos­i­tive branch­es in red and neg­a­tive branch­es in blue, with the ad­di­tion of the in­verse con­stants, which also sit on the branch cuts: ϕ∞−1(z),ϕ∞−1(z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}(z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( \overline{z} \right), ϕ∞−1(−z),ϕ∞−1(−z)\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}( - z),\phi_{\infty}^{- 1}\left( - \overline{z} \right).

When k=0k = 0, the log­a­rith­mic spiral ex­pres­sion de­fines the com­plex circle with the radial com­po­nent a.a.We start by set­ting z=(ϕ∞(z))2z = \left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2} in the log­a­rith­mic spiral ex­pres­sion

z=(ϕ∞(z))2=ϕ∞(z)eϕ∞(z),\begin{array}{r} z = \left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)^{2} = \phi_{\infty}(z)e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)}, \end{array}
(1.2.228)

and given that ϕ∞(z)=eϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z) = e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)}

z=eϕ∞(z)eϕ∞(z)=e2Re(ϕ∞(z))+2iIm(ϕ∞(z)).\begin{array}{r} z = e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)}e^{\phi_{\infty}(z)} = e^{2Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) + 2iIm\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}. \end{array}
(1.2.229)

Taking the ex­po­nent por­tion from the ex­pres­sion above, we can solve to de­ter­mine the θ\theta and k\ k values

2i(Im(ϕ∞(z)))=iθ→θ=2(Im(ϕ∞(z))),\begin{array}{r} 2i\left( Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) \right) = i\theta \rightarrow \theta = 2\left( Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.230)
2Re(ϕ∞(z))=kθ→k=(2Re(ϕ∞(z))2Im(ϕ∞(z))),\begin{array}{r} 2Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) = k\theta \rightarrow k = \left( \frac{2Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{2Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right), \end{array}
(1.2.231)

and then define the log­a­rith­mic spiral ex­pres­sion

z=𝒶e(𝓀+i)θ,\begin{array}{r} z = \mathcal{a}e^{\left( \mathcal{k} +i \right)\theta}, \end{array}
(1.2.232)

which has the vari­able values

𝓀=(2Re(ϕ∞(z))2Im(ϕ∞(z)))≈0.237902342021231,  θ=2(Im(ϕ∞(z)))≈2.674471402861379.\begin{array}{r} \mathcal{k} =\left( \frac{2Re\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)}{2Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right)} \right) \approx 0.237902342021231,\ \ \theta = 2\left( Im\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right) \right) \approx 2.674471402861379. \end{array}
(1.2.233)

After the ad­di­tion of an ex­po­nent vari­able τ\tau, the log­a­rith­mic spiral ex­pres­sion be­comes

z=e(𝓀+i)θτ,\begin{array}{r} z = e^{\left( \mathcal{k} +i \right)\theta\tau}, \end{array}
(1.2.234)

which is plot­ted in Figure 1.2.10, where char­ac­ter­is­tic log­a­rith­mic spi­rals can be ap­pre­ci­at­ed.

The Swiss math­e­mati­cian Jacob Bernoul­li (1655-1705) re­ferred to the log­a­rith­mic spiral in Latin as the spira mirabilis, which trans­lates to mirac­u­lous spiral. Mirac­u­lous to him was the self-sim­i­lar­i­ty prop­er­ty that char­ac­ter­izes the log­a­rith­mic spiral, where the over­all shape of the spiral re­mains intact with each curve. Based on their math­e­mat­i­cal prop­er­ties, the num­bers we have con­sid­ered in this sec­tion are as mirac­u­lous as the log­a­rith­mic spi­rals were to Bernoul­li.

Ini­tial­ly, we start­ed this sec­tion con­sid­er­ing the phase shifts of the G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right) group ve­loc­i­ty, which were de­pen­dent on both the tan­gent space and the sub­space which de­fined the phase space al­ge­bra,

G(vˆ)=G(A1[3](it+iπ2))=(e(it+iπ2)000cos⁡(t+π2)isin(t+π2)0isin(t+π2)cos⁡(t+π2)).\begin{array}{r} G\left( \widehat{v} \right) = G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} e^{\left( it + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( t + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.235)

The tan­gent space is re­vealed for G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right), by set­ting t=0t = 0

 G(vˆ)|t=0=(i0000i0i0),\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 0} = \begin{pmatrix} i & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & i \\ 0 & i & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.236)

and the phase space al­ge­bra by taking the matrix log­a­rithm of  G(vˆ)|t=0\left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 0}

ln⁡( G(vˆ)|t=0)=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20).\begin{array}{r} \ln\left( \left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 0} \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.237)

The group de­riv­a­tive and Lie al­ge­bras con­sid­ered in matrix rep­re­sen­ta­tion theory are as­so­ci­at­ed with the Lam­bert WW func­tion. This is seen by set­ting t=1t = 1 in the group ve­loc­i­ty ex­pres­sion G(vˆ)=iAj[3]G(A1[3](it))G\left( \widehat{v} \right) = iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right), and ob­serv­ing that this is a matrix form of the ex­pres­sion wew=zwe^{w} = z

 G(vˆ)|t=1=iAj[3]G(iA1[3])=(i0000i0i0)e(i0000i0i0)=(e(i+iπ2)000cos⁡(1+π2)isin(1+π2)0isin(1+π2)cos⁡(1+π2)),\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 1} = iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}G\left( iA_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} \right) = \begin{pmatrix} i & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & i \\ 0 & i & 0 \end{pmatrix}e^{\begin{pmatrix} i & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & i \\ 0 & i & 0 \end{pmatrix}} = \begin{pmatrix} e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.238)

noting the tan­gent space al­ge­bra iAj[3]iA_{j}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack} rep­re­sents a matrix ver­sion of ww from the ex­pres­sion wew=zwe^{w} = z. The tan­gent space also has a unique and spe­cif­ic sub­tan­gent space, con­sid­ered by eval­u­at­ing the de­riv­a­tive of 𝔗(A1[3](it))\mathfrak{T}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right)

𝔗′(A1[3](it))=ddt(e(tiπ2)0000e(tiπ2)0e(tiπ2)0)=(iπ2e(tiπ2)0000iπ2e(tiπ2)0iπ2e(tiπ2)0),\begin{array}{r} \mathfrak{T}^{'}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}(it) \right) = \frac{d}{dt}\begin{pmatrix} e^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & e^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} \\ 0 & e^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} {\frac{i\pi}{2}e}^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & {\frac{i\pi}{2}e}^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} \\ 0 & {\frac{i\pi}{2}e}^{\left( \frac{ti\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}

We assign a vari­able tt to the A1[3](iπ2)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) sub­tan­gent al­ge­bra, and define the group G𝔗(A1[3](iπ2t))G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2}t \right) \right) as the ex­po­nen­tial map­ping

(1.2.242)

Like the G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right) group ve­loc­i­ty, G𝔗(vˆ)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) can be ex­pressed as the prod­uct

G𝔗(vˆ)=A1[3](iπ2)G𝔗(A1[3](iπ2t))=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20)(et(iπ2)000cos⁡(tπ2)isin(tπ2)0isin(tπ2)cos⁡(tπ2)),\begin{array}{r} G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) = A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2}t \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix} e^{t\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( \frac{t\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( \frac{t\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( \frac{t\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( \frac{t\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.243)

which, after set­ting t=1t = 1, takes on the Lam­bert WW func­tion's as­so­ci­at­ed ex­pres­sion

 G𝔗(vˆ)|t=1=A1[3](iπ2)G𝔗(A1[3](iπ2))=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20)e(iπ20000iπ20iπ20).\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 1} = A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}e^{\begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}}. \end{array}
(1.2.244)

Fit­ting­ly, the eval­u­a­tion of the G𝔗(vˆ)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) group ve­loc­i­ty for t=0t = 0, yields the sub­tan­gent space al­ge­bra

 G𝔗(vˆ)|t=0=((iπ2)e0×(iπ2)000−π2sin⁡(0×π2)iπ2cos⁡(0×π2)0iπ2cos⁡(0×π2)−π2sin⁡(0×π2))=(iπ20000iπ20iπ20).\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 0} = \begin{pmatrix} \left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)e^{0 \times \left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & - \frac{\pi}{2}\sin\left( \frac{0 \times \pi}{2} \right) & \frac{i\pi}{2}\cos\left( \frac{0 \times \pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2}\cos\left( \frac{0 \times \pi}{2} \right) & - \frac{\pi}{2}\sin\left( \frac{0 \times \pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} \\ 0 & \frac{i\pi}{2} & 0 \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.245)

If our start­ing point is from the per­spec­tive of the G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right) group ve­loc­i­ty, its Lie al­ge­bra, A1[3](i+iπ2),A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right),is rooted in a de­pen­den­cy on the tan­gent space group. To find the dy­nam­i­cal state of G𝔗(vˆ)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) that yields this Lie al­ge­bra, we solve the fol­low­ing com­po­nent ex­pres­sion for the tt vari­able

(iπ2)et(iπ2)=e(i+iπ2)→et(iπ2)+ln⁡(iπ2)=e(i)e(iπ2)\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)e^{t\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} \rightarrow e^{t\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) + \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{(i)}e^{\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}
→et(iπ2)+ln⁡(π2)e(iπ2)=e(i)e(iπ2)→t(iπ2)=i−ln⁡(π2)\rightarrow e^{t\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) + \ln\left( \frac{\pi}{2} \right)}e^{\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{(i)}e^{\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} \rightarrow t\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) = i - \ln\left( \frac{\pi}{2} \right)
→t=2iπ(i−ln(π2)),\begin{array}{r} \rightarrow t = \frac{2}{i\pi}\left( i - ln\left( \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.246)

and using this so­lu­tion, the G𝔗(vˆ)G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) group ve­loc­i­ty is found to equal  G(vˆ)|t=1\left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 1}

 G𝔗(vˆ)|t=2iπ(i−ln(π2))= G(vˆ)|t=1=(e(i+iπ2)000cos⁡(1+π2)isin(1+π2)0isin(1+π2)cos⁡(1+π2)).\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = \frac{2}{i\pi}\left( i - ln\left( \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \right)} = \left. \ G\left( \widehat{v} \right) \right|_{t = 1} = \begin{pmatrix} e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( 1 + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.247)

By chang­ing the tt-vari­able to an it­er­a­tive form tkt_{k}, then defin­ing t0t_{0} to be the in­de­pen­dent vari­able of the G(vˆ)G\left( \widehat{v} \right) group, the de­pen­den­cy value for tkt_{k} can be gen­er­al­ized for any de­riv­a­tive sub­tan­gent group as

tk=a0′−ln⁡(ak)ak,\begin{array}{r} t_{k} = \frac{a_{0}^{'} - \ln\left( a_{k} \right)}{a_{k}}, \end{array}
(1.2.248)

where a0′a_{0}^{'} is the non-vari­able al­ge­bra from the axis entry of the group de­riv­a­tive Lie al­ge­bra A1[3](a0′)A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( a_{0}^{'} \right), and aka_{k} is the non-vari­able axis entry al­ge­bra from the sub­al­ge­bra group. We apply this gen­er­al­iza­tion to the last ex­am­ple, which start­ed with the ex­pres­sion

et1(iπ2)+ln⁡(iπ2)=e(i+iπ2),\begin{array}{r} e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) + \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}, \end{array}
(1.2.249)

where, t1t_{1} is the vari­able that co­in­cides with the tan­gent space. We mul­ti­ply both sides by e−ln⁡(iπ2)e^{- \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}

et1(iπ2)+ln⁡(iπ2)e−ln⁡(iπ2)=e(i+iπ2)e−ln⁡(iπ2)e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) + \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}e^{- \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}e^{- \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)}
→et1(iπ2)=e(i+iπ2 −ln⁡(iπ2)),\begin{array}{r} \rightarrow e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} = e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2}\ - \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right)}, \end{array}
(1.2.250)

then take the log­a­rithm of both sides

ln⁡(et1(iπ2))=ln⁡(e(i+iπ2 −ln⁡(iπ2)))\ln\left( e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} \right) = \ln\left( e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2}\ - \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right)} \right)
→t1(iπ2)=(i+iπ2 −ln⁡(iπ2)),\begin{array}{r} \rightarrow t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) = \left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2}\ - \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.251)

noting in this case, the de­riv­a­tive axis al­ge­bra is equal to

a0′=ln⁡(e(i+iπ2))=i+iπ2,\begin{array}{r} a_{0}^{'} = \ln\left( e^{\left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} \right) = i + \frac{i\pi}{2}, \end{array}
(1.2.252)

and the axis sub­al­ge­bra is equal to

a1=ln⁡(  et1(iπ2)|t1=1)=iπ2,\begin{array}{r} a_{1} = \ln\left( \ \left. \ e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} \right|_{t_{1} = 1} \right) = \frac{i\pi}{2}, \end{array}
(1.2.253)

for the vari­able set as t1=1.t_{1} = 1.We sub­sti­tute the a0′a_{0}^{'} and a1a_{1} sym­bol­ic forms into the ex­pres­sion

t1(iπ2)=(i+iπ2 −ln⁡(iπ2))→t1(a1)=(a0′−ln⁡(a1)),\begin{array}{r} t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) = \left( i + \frac{i\pi}{2}\ - \ln\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right) \right) \rightarrow t_{1}\left( a_{1} \right) = \left( a_{0}^{'} - \ln\left( a_{1} \right) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.254)

and solve for t1t_{1}

t1=a0′−ln⁡(a1)a1,\begin{array}{r} t_{1} = \frac{a_{0}^{'} - \ln\left( a_{1} \right)}{a_{1}}, \end{array}
(1.2.255)

which match­es our gen­er­al­ized tkt_{k} ex­pres­sion. The gen­er­al­ized tkt_{k} de­pen­den­cy so­lu­tions for non-de­riv­a­tive sub­al­ge­bras are

tk=a0ak,\begin{array}{r} t_{k} = \frac{a_{0}}{a_{k}}, \end{array}
(1.2.256)

which can be demon­strat­ed for the tan­gent space group

G𝔗(A1[3](iπ2t1))=(et1(iπ2)000cos⁡(t1π2)isin(t1π2)0isin(t1π2)cos⁡(t1π2)),\begin{array}{r} G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2}t_{1} \right) \right) = \begin{pmatrix} e^{t_{1}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2} \right)} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left( \frac{t_{1}\pi}{2} \right) & isin\left( \frac{t_{1}\pi}{2} \right) \\ 0 & isin\left( \frac{t_{1}\pi}{2} \right) & \cos\left( \frac{t_{1}\pi}{2} \right) \end{pmatrix}, \end{array}
(1.2.257)

and the A[3](it0)A^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it_{0} \right) group's de­pen­den­cy for t0=1t_{0} = 1, is

 G(A[3](it0))|t0=1=(ei000cos⁡(1)isin(1)0isin(1)cos⁡(1)).\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G\left( A^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it_{0} \right) \right) \right|_{t_{0} = 1} = \begin{pmatrix} e^{i} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos(1) & isin(1) \\ 0 & isin(1) & \cos(1) \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}
(1.2.258)

For this case, the t1t_{1} so­lu­tion is

t1=a0a1→iiπ2=2π,\begin{array}{r} t_{1} = \frac{a_{0}}{a_{1}} \rightarrow \frac{i}{\frac{i\pi}{2}} = \frac{2}{\pi}, \end{array}
(1.2.259)

which leads to the equal­i­ty

 G𝔗(A1[3](iπ2t1))|t1=2π= G(A[3](it0))|t0=1=(ei000cos⁡(1)isin(1)0isin(1)cos⁡(1)).\begin{array}{r} \left. \ G_{\mathfrak{T}}\left( A_{1}^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( \frac{i\pi}{2}t_{1} \right) \right) \right|_{t_{1} = \frac{2}{\pi}} = \left. \ G\left( A^{\lbrack 3\rbrack}\left( it_{0} \right) \right) \right|_{t_{0} = 1} = \begin{pmatrix} e^{i} & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos(1) & isin(1) \\ 0 & isin(1) & \cos(1) \end{pmatrix}. \end{array}

We come full circle and back to these in­trigu­ing and mar­velous num­bers to frame them in the con­text of group theory by defin­ing the Mirabilis Group.

A log­a­rith­mic path of de­scent exists for all num­bers, and for those matrix rep­re­sen­ta­tions not taking on sin­gu­lar values when ap­ply­ing the in­fi­nite it­er­a­tive log­a­rithm func­tion, the path can be de­fined as fol­lows:

De­f­i­n­i­tion (1.2.267) – The Log­a­rith­mic Path of De­scent T\mathbf{\mathrm{T}}\mathbf{} is the unique set of values that com­pose the set

T=limn→∞⁡{τn}={τ0,τ1,τ2,…,t∞},\begin{array}{r} \mathrm{T} = \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\left\{ \tau_{n} \right\} = \left\{ \tau_{0},\tau_{1},\tau_{2},\ldots,t_{\infty} \right\}, \end{array}

where each τn\tau_{n}, is de­fined re­cur­sive­ly by the ex­pres­sion

τn=ln[n−1]⁡(A0)ln[n]⁡(A0),\begin{array}{r} \tau_{n} = \frac{\ln_{\lbrack n - 1\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right)}{\ln_{\lbrack n\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right)}, \end{array}

the func­tion, ln[n]⁡(A0)\ln_{\lbrack n\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right), de­fines the nthn^{th} order log­a­rithm of the Lie al­ge­bra, A0A_{0},

ln[n]⁡(A0)=ln[n]⁡(ln[n−1]⁡(ln[n−2]⁡(ln[n−3]⁡…ln[1]⁡(ln[0]⁡(A0))),\ln_{\lbrack n\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right) = \ln_{\lbrack n\rbrack}\left( \ln_{\lbrack n - 1\rbrack}(\ln_{\lbrack n - 2\rbrack}(\ln_{\lbrack n - 3\rbrack}{\ldots\ln_{\lbrack 1\rbrack}\left( \ln_{\lbrack 0\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right) \right)} \right),

for A0A_{0}, with non-sin­gu­lar values ∀ln[n]⁡(A0)\forall\ln_{\lbrack n\rbrack}\left( A_{0} \right), and it is de­fined that, ln[0]⁡(A0)=A0,ln[−1]⁡(A0)=eA0.\ln_{\lbrack 0\rbrack}{\left( A_{0} \right) = A_{0}},\ln_{\lbrack - 1\rbrack}{\left( A_{0} \right) = e^{A_{0}}.}

To better un­der­stand what T\mathrm{T} is, we choose the com­plex number ex­am­ple A0=(2+1.2i),A_{0} = (2 + 1.2i),and re­cur­sive­ly cal­cu­late the first ten values of τn\tau_{n} from its log­a­rith­mic func­tion de­scent

Figure 1.2.11 – Spi­rals formed by the τn\tau_{n} values for the log­a­rith­mic paths of de­scent, T\mathrm{T},of the in­te­gers2, T(ℤ(2:10)).\mathrm{T}\left( \mathbb{Z}(2:10) \right).

In Figure 1.2.11, we plot the log­a­rith­mic paths of de­scent for the in­te­gers two through ten, where a log­a­rith­mic-like spiral forms on the de­scent into the it­er­a­tions of the log­a­rithm func­tion. Unlike the ex­am­ple of the log­a­rith­mic spiral, this is an inward-ro­tat­ing spiral, where the values of τn\tau_{n} con­verge to the value of one. The paths of these unique in­te­gers are dis­tinct from one an­oth­er, defin­ing a sig­na­ture for each number and its in­for­ma­tion­al con­tent. This sig­na­ture is em­bod­ied in the short-hand no­ta­tion of the tϕt_{\phi} vari­able, where the ex­pres­sion

A0=tϕ(ϕ∞(z)),\begin{array}{r} A_{0} = t_{\phi}\left( \phi_{\infty}(z) \right), \end{array}
(1.2.275)

yields the rep­re­sent­ed number by the prod­uct with ϕ∞(z)\phi_{\infty}(z).

This sec­tion's pur­pose is to high­light the in­ter­de­pen­dence that exists with all the sub­spaces com­posed of unique sub­al­ge­bras. Each group is con­nect­ed to its ad­ja­cent sub­group through its τn\tau_{n} vari­able, and that of the sub­group's τn+1\tau_{n + 1} vari­able. If an action occurs in one space due to an ex­ter­nal in­flu­ence, the effect is a math­e­mat­i­cal prop­a­ga­tion of value changes for the τn\tau_{n} vari­ables through the in­fi­nite set of al­ge­bras that com­pose its su­per­group.
