%N A194623 Decimal expansion of y with 0 < x < y and x^y = y^x = 17.
%C A194623 Given z > 0, there exist positive real numbers x < y with x^y = y^x = z, if and only if z > e^e. In that case, (x,y) = ((1 + 1/t)^t,(1 + 1/t)^(t+1)) for some t > 0. For example, t = 1 gives 2^4 = 4^2 = 16 > e^e. When x^y = y^x = 17, at least one of x and y is transcendental. See Sondow and Marques 2010, pp. 155-157.
