In this paper we derive the explicit, closed-form, recursion-free formulae for the arbitrary-order Fréchet derivatives of the exponential and logarithmic functions in unital Banach algebras (complex ...

This function is a simple two-dimensional example which occurs several times in the literature on computer experiments. Currin, C., Mitchell, T., Morris, M., & Ylvisaker, D. (1988). A Bayesian ...
