if a>0 and a≠1  we have a^x  =e^(xln(a))   if a<o ⇒ a^x  =(−(−a))^x  =(−1)^x (−a)^x  =(e^(iπ) )^x e^(xln(−a))   =e^(iπx)  e^(xln(−a) )  =(cosπx +isin(πx)e^(xln(−a))      (−a>0)  or a^x  =e^(xln(−a)+iπx)

but (−8)^(1/3)  is defined.  there are 2 definitions  (1) z∈C, r∈R^+ : z^(1/n) =(re^(iθ) )^(1/n) =r^(1/n) e^(i(θ/n))   (2) for θ=π∧ n=2k+1 we have z=re^(iπ) =−r       and define z^(1/(2k+1)) =(−r)^(1/(2k+1)) =−(r^(1/(2k+1)) )  this 2^(nd)  definition is “older” because in  basic mathematics it′s common to use it  ⇒ (−8)^(1/3) = { ((1+(√3)i)),((−2)) :}

but sir why if we use a calculator  give the answer 1+ i(√3) ?

depends on the calculator. the ones for  high schools should give −2, the ones for  university give 1+(√3)i  I guess using the exceptions ((−27))^(1/3) =−3;  ((−32))^(1/5) =−2 etc. makes it impossible to  get a result for calculations like (−1)^(2/3)   and the exeptions do harm to functions  like f(x): y=(−1)^x  for x∈R∧y∈C  ⇒ most advanced calculators use  z^(p+qi) =(re^(iθ) )^(p+qi) =r^(p+qi) e^(−qθ+ipθ) =  =(r^p /e^(qθ) )e^(i(pθ+qln r))  which for q=0 gives r^p e^(ipθ)

(−8)^(1/3)  is defined  x=(−8)^(1/3)   ⇒x^3  = −8⇒x^3 +8=0  (x+2)(x^2 −2x+4)=0  ⇒x=−2  and x= 1± (√3)i
$$\left(−\mathrm{8}\right)^{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}} \:{is}\:{defined} \\ $$$${x}=\left(−\mathrm{8}\right)^{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}^{\mathrm{3}} \:=\:−\mathrm{8}\Rightarrow{x}^{\mathrm{3}} +\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left({x}+\mathrm{2}\right)\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{4}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${and}\:{x}=\:\mathrm{1}\pm\:\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{i} \\ $$
