No estoy convencido totalmente de que 1^i=1 :/
-
In a general branch however, 1 = e^{i*2πn} --> 1^i = 1, e^{-2π}, e^{-4π}...

Also i^i={exp[i*(pi/2)]}^i=exp[i*i*(pi/2)]=exp(-pi/2)

Also, i^(-i) = e^(-i(i pi/2)) =e^(pi/2). Which is also real. (-i)^i=e^(i(i 3pi/2)=e^(3pi/2). Which is also real. It seems whenever you have an imaginary base raised to an imaginary power you get a real number. This doesn't hold generally to complex numbers
