Closed form solving for parameters of exponential

Posted 2 years ago

Hi, I have a system of exponential equations that I'll need to symbolically simplify. Any chance that with the correct inputs I can get something digestible? My aim is to have a symbolic equation that I can parametrise when I need to. No problems on the numerical side.

eq1 = 1 == b*c^m + a
eq2 = 0.75 == b*c^(t*m) + a
eq3 = 0 == b*c^(0)+a

from eq3

b =-a

ss1 = Simplify[
  Assuming[t > 0 < 1 && m > 0, 
    Reduce[Rationalize@{eq1, eq2}, {a, c}, Reals]] /. m -> 260]

Because c and m only occur as c^m, you can only deal with c^m and can't get separate estimates for c and m. Also if you change 0.75 to 3/4 and set t to specific values, a solution for c^m, a, and b occurs.

t = 4;
eq1 = 1 == b*cm + a
eq2 = 3/4 == b*cm^(t) + a
eq3 = 0 == b*c^(0) + a
Reduce[{eq1, eq2, eq3}, {a, b, cm}] // ToRadicals

(a == 1/13 (8 + (2 (81 + 13 Sqrt[57]))^(1/3)/3^(2/3) - (8 2^(2/3))/(3 (81 + 13 Sqrt[57]))^(1/3)) || 
   a == 8/13 - ((1 + I Sqrt[3]) (81 + 13 Sqrt[57])^(1/3))/(13 6^(2/3)) + (4 2^(2/3) (1 - I Sqrt[3]))/(
     13 (3 (81 + 13 Sqrt[57]))^(1/3)) || 
   a == 8/13 - ((1 - I Sqrt[3]) (81 + 13 Sqrt[57])^(1/3))/(13 6^(2/3)) + (4 2^(2/3) (1 + I Sqrt[3]))/(
     13 (3 (81 + 13 Sqrt[57]))^(1/3))) && b == -a && 
 cm == 1/4 (-12 + 24 a - 13 a^2)
