    Welcome! You cannot have (-1)^p=(-1)^ outside math mode. Try documentclass{article} begin{document} $(-1)^p=(-1)^{P^{prime}+P^{primeprime}}$ or $(-1)^p=(-1)^{{P^{prime}+P^{primeprime}}}$ end{document}.

    You're also missing both a begin{document} and an end{document} directive.

I believe this is what you're looking for. (I would also argue that writing ' is easier than ^{prime} -- and that writing '' is a lot easier than ^{primeprime}.)

documentclass{article}
begin{document}
$(-1)^p=(-1)^{(P'+P'')}$
end{document}
