Here we show that if we remove the Schanuel Property and just care about existential closure, it is possible to create several existentially closed exponential functions on the algebraic numbers that still have similarities with complex exponentiation. The main difficulties are related to the arithmetic of algebraic numbers, and can be overcome with known results about specialisations of multiplicatively independent functions on algebraic varieties. }, doi = {10.1017/jsl.2014.41}, author = {Mantova, Vincenzo} }
