A new Conjecture at OEIS sequence A376842

Here is a new conjecture of mine from the appendix of an unpublished manuscript currently under review. Let $b \in \mathbb{Z}^+$ and assume that $n$ is an integer greater than $1$ and not a multiple ...

Do we have tetration uniqueness by $ A = \inf \sum_n a_n^2 $?

Let $f$ be a real analytic (on at least $|x|<2$) and real solution of the functional equation $f(0) = 1,f(x+1) = \exp(f(x))$. For the existence of such $f$, see here. Then $$ f(x) = \sum_n a_n x^n ;...

Showing that the congruence speed of any integer exponentiation $a^b$ is constant and $\geq 1$ iff $a>1$ is a multiple of $10$

Years ago, I defined the "congruence speed" (radix-$10$) of the integer tetration $^{b}a$ as $V(a,b)$, which is the number of the new(!) rightmost digits that freeze when we move from $b \in ...

Defining the number of rightmost frozen digits of Graham's number

It is well-known that (in radix-$10$) Graham's number, $G$, can be expressed as a tetration with base $3$ and a very large hyperexponent $\tilde{b}$. Thus, we can write that $\exists! \hspace{1mm} \...
