Insolvability of $x^x = a$ in elementary functions. (arXiv:2312.02174v1 [math.GM]) http://arxiv.org/abs/2312.02174
In a recent paper "Solvability of equations in elementary functions" [arXiv:1911.10409] the insolvability in elementary functions of equation $\tan(x) - x = a$ was proved. This work applies the same topological method to prove the insolvability of equation $x^x = a$.
