Abstract
Given formal differential operators Fi on polynomial algebra in several variables x1,,xn, we discuss finding expressions Kl determined by the equation exp(ixiFi)(exp(jqjxj))=exp(lKlxl) and their applications. The expressions for Kl are related to the coproducts for deformed momenta for the noncommutative space-times of Lie algebra type and also appear in the computations with a class of star products. We find combinatorial recursions and derive formal differential equations for finding Kl. We elaborate an example for a Lie algebra su(2), related to a quantum gravity application from the literature.

Key words: star product; exponential expression; formal differential operator.
