Think of a number line, with $0$ in the "middle", and tick marks at each integer. Moving a certain distance to the right corresponds to adding a positive number, and adding the same number moves you the same distance, no matter where you are on the line.Thu, 16 Apr 2026 08:57:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4923079/why-roots-arent-the-inverse-of-exponentiation-but-logarithmsI was taught my whole life that if I want to get rid of a root I should just do the inverse and ''exponentiate that with its index'' and now I just learn that roots aren't the inverse of exponentiation and are only its fractional exponent and that the real inverse of expo is getting it logarithm.Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:17:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4829350/why-does-exponentiation-have-2-inversesI was wondering why addition has one inverse (subtraction), multiplication has one inverse (division), but exponentiation has two (radication and logarithm). After a bit of thinking, I thought it m...Thu, 09 Apr 2026 10:38:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2790118/how-is-the-definition-for-exponentiation-extended-to-rationals-and-realsWhen rigorously laying out foundations of all of analysis, the usual method is to use the definition $$ a^b = \exp (b \log (a)) $$ While you could try and define exponentiation directly, it is somewhat awkward. Since you have to define $\exp$ and $\log$ anyways, it's most convenient to take advantage of that work, and the fact this identity is so simple. This definition also has an advantage ...Tue, 14 Apr 2026 21:38:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/81228/modular-exponentiation-by-hand-ab-bmod-c23 Some tricks which are useful for modular exponentiation The intention of this post is to collect various tricks which can sometimes simplify computations of this type.

The complex field is not an ordered field, so the equivalent notion of a supremum doesn't exist.Fri, 17 Apr 2026 02:00:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2503005/how-can-i-intuitively-understand-complex-exponentsRather than trying to press complex exponentiation into the mold of repeated multiplication, see complex exponentiation -- or more fundamentally, the function $\exp$ -- as its own thing, that in special cases can be interpreted as repeated multiplication, thanks to the functional relation $\exp (a)\exp (b) = \exp (a + b)$.Tue, 14 Apr 2026 05:10:00 GMThttps://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4968082/how-to-construct-real-exponentiationI have been trying to rigorously define real exponentiation.
