Can a repeated integral be simplified into a single integral?

In summary, it seems that it may be possible to express the nth derivative of a product of functions with an unique differentiation, but it would require finding the nth antiderivative with an unique integral.

If a repeated integral can be expressed how an unique integral:

So is possible express the nth derivative with an unique differentiation?

What are your thoughts on this?

Given a function f, do you think it would be possible to express f'' as a single differentiation?

Yeah! Maybe, if is possible to find the nth antiderivative with an unique integral, so should be possible to find the nth derivative with an unique differentiation through of algebraic manipulation.

There is Cauchy's differentiation formula
$$\mathrm{f}^{(n)}(x)=
\frac{n!}{2\pi \imath}\oint \frac{\mathrm{f}(z) \mathrm{d}z } {(z-x)^{n+1}}$$
and some other related formula, but I do not recall any of the form
$$\left( \dfrac{d}{dx}\right) ^n \mathrm{f}(x)=\dfrac{d}{dx} \mathrm{g}_n (x)\mathrm{f}(x)$$
which given the rules of differentiation seems impossible for general f

Yeah! I'm looking for something like this!

We only have Leibniz' rule for the nth derivative of a product of functions:

It's more comprehensible express the derivative of a produt like way:
$$(f\times g)^{(2)} = f^{(2)}g^{(0)} + 2f^{(1)}g^{(1)} + f^{(0)}g^{(2)}$$
 

What is reduced differentiation?

Reduced differentiation refers to a process in which cells become less specialized and lose their distinct characteristics.

What causes reduced differentiation?

Reduced differentiation can be caused by genetic mutations, environmental factors, and aging.

What are the consequences of reduced differentiation?

The consequences of reduced differentiation can include impaired tissue function, decreased cell diversity, and increased susceptibility to disease.

Can reduced differentiation be reversed?

In some cases, reduced differentiation can be reversed through cellular reprogramming or differentiation therapy, but it depends on the specific cause and extent of the reduction.

Is reduced differentiation always harmful?

No, reduced differentiation can also be a natural process in certain situations, such as during embryonic development or tissue repair.
