The non-exponential-algebraicity conjecture for pi

A complex number is exponentially algebraic if it is a root of a non-degenerate exponential-logarithmic system of equations. Non-exponential-algebraicity conjecture.

π is not exponentially algebraic.\pi\text{ is not exponentially algebraic}.

This conjecture would assert that even the larger class of exponentially algebraic numbers does not suffice to obtain π\pi, and hence would rule out a broad family of geometric constructions involving the quadratrix. The source presents it as an additional conjecture beyond what follows from the Schanuel conjecture.
