Abstract:
This investigation pertains to the construction of a class of generalised deformed derivative operators which furnish the familiar finite difference and the q-derivatives as special cases. The procedure involves the introduction of a linear operator which is multiplicative over functions of a real variable. The validity of the general prescriptions is ascertained by considering suitable examples of such derivatives and constructing their eigenfunctions explicitly. The relationship of a particular version of the operator with the one-dimensional Möbius transformation is also established.
