The expression ( X^\pi ) is undefined for negative values of ( X ) when ( \pi ) is not an integer because it involves taking a root of a negative number, which can lead to complex results. For non-integer exponents, the operation requires a real base, and negative bases with non-integer exponents cannot be simplified to real numbers. Specifically, the result would be a complex number, making the expression undefined in the context of real numbers.
