The base is . Its complex logarithms are , . Exponentiating times each logarithm gives all values of the multivalued power:The values form a discrete geometric sequence along the Argand ray of angle . Consecutive radii differ by . The origin is an accumulation point but is not itself a value. If the power is instead defined using the principal logarithm, only is retained. The phrase “all values” requires this branch distinction.
