    Abstract

    This work starts with the introduction of a family of differential energy operators. Energy operators (ψ R+ ) were defined together with a method to decompose the wave equation in a previous work. Here the energy operators are defined following the order of their derivatives (ψ k + , k = {0,±1, ±2, ⋯}). The main part of the work demonstrates for any smooth real-valued function f in the Schwartz space (S?(ℝ)), the successive derivatives of the n-th power of f (n ∈ℤ and n ≠ 0) can be decomposed using only ψ k + (Lemma); or if f in a subset of S?(ℝ), called s?(ℝ), ψ k+ and ψ (k ∈ ℤ) decompose in a unique way the successive derivatives of the n-th power of f (Theorem). Some properties of the Kernel and the Image of the energy operators are given along with the development. Finally, the paper ends with the application to the energy function.
