• Exponential functionNarrower topic: An exponential function places its input in the exponent of a fixed base.

• LogarithmNarrower topic: Logarithms are defined by reversing this operation.

• Natural numberRelated: Natural-number exponents encode repeated multiplication, with a conventional zero-power case.

• Geometric seriesRelated: The terms of a geometric series are commonly written as powers of its common ratio.

• Binomial theoremNarrower topic: A nonnegative integer exponent means repeated multiplication of the binomial.

• MultiplicationCompared with: Exponentiation iterates multiplication rather than combining two factors symmetrically.

• Square rootNarrower topic: A square root reverses exponentiation by the power of two.

• Scientific notationNarrower topic: Scientific notation uses exponentiation to compactly encode repeated factors of ten.

• AdditionCompared with: It sits higher in the usual order of operations than addition.

• AssociativityCompared with: Exponentiation is not associative: (a^b)^c can differ from a^(b^c).

• ExponentRelated: It is the operation an exponent specifies.

• Geometric progressionNarrower topic: The nth term uses a power of the common ratio to encode repeated multiplication.

• Modular exponentiationNarrower topic: The modular operation retains exponentiation's power laws while reducing results modulo an integer.

• PowerNarrower topic: Power expressions are the standard notation for this operation.

• OneRelated: A power with exponent one equals its base.

• Algebraic expressionRelated: Exponents compactly represent repeated multiplication within expressions.

• Distance formulaRelated: The formula squares each coordinate difference before adding them.

• Euler's criterionRelated: The theorem encodes residue status in a specific power of a.

• Powers of tenNarrower topic: Powers of ten are a special case of exponentiation.

• ReciprocalRelated: A reciprocal can be written as a negative first power: x⁻¹ = 1/x.

• Common logarithmNarrower topic: A common logarithm asks which exponentiation of 10 produces a given positive number.

• Algebraic notationRelated: Superscripts encode repeated multiplication and its extensions.

• Multiplicative orderRelated: The defining condition asks when repeated powers first return to the identity.

• Primitive recursive functionBroader topic: Repeated multiplication defines exponentiation by primitive recursion.

• Binary logarithmNarrower topic: A binary logarithm reverses raising 2 to an exponent.

• Fermat numberNarrower topic: The nested powers in the defining formula make exponentiation the sequence’s basic operation.

• Catalan's conjectureRelated: Perfect powers are defined through repeated multiplication.

• Cubic metreRelated: The unit's metre cubed notation expresses the third power of length.

• Multinomial theoremRelated: The theorem rewrites repeated multiplication of a sum.
