Googolminex

Googolminex is equal to \(10^{-(10^{100})}\) = 1/\(10^{(10^{100})}\) = \((10^{10^{100}})\)-1 = 0.000...001 (googol zeroes, including the first one), or the of a googolplex. The name is constructed from The Book of Numbers by John Conway and Richard K. Guy,Conway, J. and Guy, R.K. "The Book of Numbers" Copernicus. 1996. p.16 where n-minex is defined as \(10^{-n}\) with a credit to Tadashi Tokieda is written ("googolminex" is not directly written.). In the same book they introduced their -illion scheme and chained arrow notation. It is a well-known example of a googolism which is a small number, or a micronym.
Garrett Wilkinson calls this the Wilkinson negative constant.Garrett Wilkinson. The Wilkinson Array - Numberpedia. Archived 2020-10-26.
Comparably, \(10^{10^{-100}}\), differing only by the placement of the minus sign, this time on the double exponent, is equal to ten to the power of one googolth; the googolth root of ten, which is very close to one (in fact only 2.303 googolths greater than 1; 1 + ln(10) \(10^{-100}\).
