Notational question regarding repeated composition and multiplication

favorite












Assume $A$ to be an operator, $B$ a scalar function - the details should not matter too much here.
I know that for an element $c$ the repeated application of the operator can be written as
$$
A(A(A(c)))=(Acirc Acirc A)(c)=A^3(c).
$$



I am looking for a notation of the repeated composition
$$
A(A(A(c)cdot B)cdot B)cdot B
$$

where $cdot$ is multiplication.

          I doubt that there is established notation for this construction. If you need it often in something you are writing, define one for yourself - perhaps one of
          $$
          F(A,c,B)
          $$

          or
          $$
          (A,B)^n(c).
          $$

          or
          $$
          A^n(c;B)
          $$

          depending on how much you want to stress each of $A$, $B$ and $c$.
