Taylor series of “function of functions”












1












$begingroup$


I have crossed a problem, and it took me about 3 days. I wonder how I can find the Taylor series of "function of functions".
To be explicit, I am looking for the Taylor series of



$$y(s)=f(u_1(s),u_2(s),s)$$



I think the Taylor series at t in the T neighborhood of t-T (Where T is small enough) is as follows. Am I right?



$$y(t)=y(t-T)+left.frac{partial f}{partial u_1}frac{partial u_1}{partial s}right|_{s=t-T}u_1(t-T)+left.frac{partial f}{partial u_2}frac{partial u_2}{partial s}right|_{s=t-T}u_2(t-T)+left.frac{partial f}{partial s}right|_{s=t-T}(t-T)+cdots $$
I want it to become as follows:
$$y(t)=theta_1(t) u_1(t)+theta_2(t) u_2(t)+theta_3(t) $$

    You also need to multiply the derivatives by $T$ of course. And this is only first order, the multivariable chain rule gets messier at higher order.

    This is Faa di Bruno's formula, basically. See the wikipedia article
