sp-acj4-334-cond true

Summary

Given

\(x \in \mathbb{C},\quad \operatorname{Im}\left(x\right) > -\pi \land \operatorname{Im}\left(x\right) \le \pi,\quad e^{x} \neq 0 \lor \operatorname{Re}\left(e^{1}\right) > 0\)

Claim

\(\displaystyle \left(e^{x}\right)^{e^{1}} = e^{e^{1} \, x}\)

Expected

true equal at every admissible point

the two sides are equal at every admissible point
