An exponential polynomial is a finite linear combination of terms unea: ttneat where n is any non-negative integer and a is any complex number. The set X of exponetial polynomials is clearly a vector space over the field of complex numbers C and this set is identical with the set of solutions to all homogeneous linear ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients.
