The conjecture that both solutions are transcendental for rational tower bases
The conjecture that both solutions are transcendental for rational tower bases
Let with , and let and denote the two solutions identified in the preceding proposition, with , of the relevant iterated-exponential equation. The proposition establishes that both values are irrational and that at least one is transcendental. Both-solutions transcendence conjecture. Both and are transcendental. This strengthens the second part of the preceding proposition, which proves irrationality of both values and transcendence of at least one; the stronger assertion is presented as a prediction.
