Abstract: In this paper, an axiomatic definition of continuous iterations of a dynamical map is provided. From the axioms that define common properties of all continuous iterations, it will be demonstrated that continuous iterations that are also derivable must satisfy a certain nonlinear differential equation, herein referred as the “Equation of Derivable Continuous Iterations”. A general solution of this equation will be obtained by means of the Laplace transform and it will be shown that derivable continuous iterations of a map must have a certain functional form. A formula for analytically calculating derivable continuous iterations of maps with at least a fixed point is provided.
