power function


A real power functionDlmfDlmfPlanetmathf:+  has the form

f(x)=xa

where a is a given real number.

Theorem.

The power function  xxa  is differentiableMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath with the derivative  xaxa-1  and strictly increasingPlanetmathPlanetmath if  a>0  and strictly decreasing if  a<0  (and 1 if a=0).

The power functions comprise the natural power functionsxxn  with  n=0, 1, 2,,  the root functionsxxn=x1n  with  n=1, 2, 3,  and other fraction power functionsxxa  with a any fractional number.

Note.  The power xa may of course be meaningful also for other than positive values of x, if a is an integer.  On the other hand, e.g. (-1)2 has no real values — see the general power.
