Abstract

We investigate compositional iteration of fractional order for transseries. For any large positive transseries TT of exponentiality 0, there is a family T[s]T^{[s]} indexed by real numbers ss corresponding to teration of order ss. It is based on Abel's Equation. We also investigate the question of whether there is a family T[s]T^{[s]} all sharing a single support set. A subset of the transseries of exponentiality 0 is divided into three classes ("shallow", "moderate" and "deep") with different properties related to fractional iteration.
