Why following equality is satisfied ccL[exp(int_0^t ds (dot(x)(s))/(x(s)))]=(1)/(u-(ccL[dot(x)](u))/(ccL[x](u))) where ccL[ * ] denotes Laplace transform. Is this equation fulfilled for all x(t), and how one can derive it?

Why following equality is satisfied
L [ exp ( 0 t d s x ˙ ( s ) x ( s ) ) ] = 1 u L [ x ˙ ] ( u ) L [ x ] ( u ) ,
where L [ ] denotes Laplace transform. Is this equation fulfilled for all x(t), and how one can derive it?

The key point is to note, that
d d t ln x ( t ) = x ˙ ( t ) x ( t )
accordingly
exp ( 0 t d s x ˙ ( s ) x ( s ) ) = exp ( 0 t d s d d s ln x ( s ) ) = x ( t ) x ( 0 )
The rest can be obtained by using the formula for the Laplace Transform of the derivative.
