proof

let x be object ; :: thesis: ( x in dom ((f to_power a) to_power b) implies ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x )
assume A3: x in dom ((f to_power a) to_power b) ; :: thesis: ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x
then A4: ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = ((f to_power a) . x) to_power b by MESFUN6C:def 4
.= ((f . x) to_power a) to_power b by A2, A3, MESFUN6C:def 4 ;
A5: (f to_power (a * b)) . x = (f . x) to_power (a * b) by A2, A3, MESFUN6C:def 4;
then A6: ( f . x > 0 implies ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x ) by A4, POWER:33;

now :: thesis: ( f . x = 0 implies ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x )

assume A7: f . x = 0 ; :: thesis: ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x
then ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = 0 to_power b by A1, A4, POWER:def 2;
then ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = 0 by A1, POWER:def 2;
hence ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x by A1, A7, A5, POWER:def 2; :: thesis: verum

end;

hence ((f to_power a) to_power b) . x = (f to_power (a * b)) . x by A6, A1, MESFUNC6:51; :: thesis: verum

end;

hence (f to_power a) to_power b = f to_power (a * b) by A2, FUNCT_1:2; :: thesis: verum
