    0 references
    The main contribution of this nice paper consists in solving negatively Tarski's High School Algebra Problem on identities of exponentiation, proving that there are true identities not derivable from the familiar ones. Moreover, enlarging conveniently the equational theory of exponentiation, the author proves a theorem which seems to be the best possible positive solution to Tarski's problem.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0971.00010].
