f 2 ( x ) = f 1 ( x ) f ( x ) . . . . . . . ( 1 )
∴ f 3 ( x ) = f 1 ( x ) f 1 ( x ) − ( f 1 ( x ) ) 2 f ( x ) ∗ f 2 ( x ) = 1 − ( f 1 ( x ) ) 3 ( f ( x ) ) 2 . . . . . . . f r o m ( 1 )
∴ f 4 ( x ) = ( f 1 ( x ) ) 2 − 2 f ( x ) + ( f 1 ( x ) ) 5 3 ( f ( x ) ) 3
∴ f 5 ( x ) = f 1 ( x ) − 2 + ( f 1 ( x ) ) 4 4 ∗ ( f ( x ) ) 2 + ( f 1 ( x ) ) 4 9 ∗ ( f ( x ) ) 2 − ( f 1 ( x ) ) 7 1 5 ( f ( x ) ) 4
In this way if you will go then you will get,
f 7 ( x ) = ( f 1 ( x ) ) 2 2 + ( f 1 ( x ) ) 2 1 8 + ( f 1 ( x ) ) 2 8 + k ∗ f ( x )
So, f ( a ) = 0
f 7 ( a ) = ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 2 + ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 1 8 + ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 8 + k ∗ f ( a )
f 7 ( a ) = ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 2 + ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 1 8 + ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 8 + 0
f 7 ( a ) ∗ ( f 1 ( a ) ) 2 = 2 8
Here the noticeable thing is that, f k ( a ) = 0 if k is an even integer.
