Namely this case is considered on this article.

The first 5 ackermanns (addition of e, multiplication by e, exponent, tetration, pentation) are shown in the top figure at right.

Natural pentation is compared to its asymptotics at the second figure.

The complex map of the natural pentation is shown in the last figure.

Properties of the natural pentation

The base Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle b} of pentation is indicated as subscript, but it it is e, the subsctipt can be omitted, as in the case of tetration, arctetration, exponential and logarithm. The natural pentation is superfunction of natural tetration tet .

Natural pentation has the following properties:

The limiting value at minus infinity is fuxed point of the natural tetration, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L\!=\!L_{\mathrm e, 4,0} \!\approx\! -1.8503545290271812}

Increment at negative values of the real part is Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle k\approx 1.86573322821}

Period Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle P=2\pi \mathrm i /k \approx 3.36767615657879\, \mathrm i}

The period is pure imaginary, so, the map shown in the figure reproduces at the translations along the imaginary axis. A little bit more than two periods are covered by the range of the complex map at right.

Natural pentation has the countable set of logarithmic singularities. The cut lines divide the right hand side of the complex plane to the set of "independent" strips of width Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle P} . In addition, there are many branch points at the right hand side of the map in vicinity of the real axis; and these branch points also reproduce at the translations for period Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle P} . There is no way to direct these cut lines to the left, because infinite amount of singularities are in the right hand side of the complex map.

Along the real axis, at minus infinity, the function pen grows exponentially from its asymptotic value Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L\approx -1.8503545290271812}

Error of this approximation can be characterised with function Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \delta(z)=\mathrm{pen}(z)-(1\!+\!z)} .

At larger positive values of the argument, pentation shows very fast growth, much faster than that of superfactorial or that of natural tetration.

Visually, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \mathrm{pen}(2)} looks as infinity, and, perhaps, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \mathrm{pen}(3)} can be considered a "numerical approximation" of the fake Mizugadro number. Tetration has singularity and the branch point Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle -2} , and this singularity determines the set of singularities in vicinity of the real axis. The pair of these singularities are seen at points with coordinates approximately Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (3.1,\pm 3.1)} ; the zooming of the map allows to see them in details.

Construction and evaluation of tetration, pentation and highest ackermanns may be good excersice for testing and debugging of the automatic procedure for calculation of superfuncions and non-integer iterates of holomorphic functions. Up to year 2014, such an automatic procedure is not yet implemented, and the superfunctions are built-up semi-manually; with human control of the overlapping of various representations and manual check of the residual at the substitution of various approximations into the transfer equation.
