I'm not sure where the equation comes from, but it's an identity, True
for all x:

eqn1 = -Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2]/(1 + Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2]) + 
    Log[Exp[Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2]]] - 
    Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2]*(Log[Exp[Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2]]]/(1 + Sqrt[1 + 3*x^2])) ==
0;
eqn2 = Simplify[eqn1 /. 1 + 3*x^2 -> z]
eqn3 = eqn2 /. Sqrt[z] -> y
eqn4 = ((1 + y)*#1 & ) /@ eqn3
eqn5 = (#1 + y & ) /@ eqn4
eqn5 /. Log[E^a_] -> a

(-Sqrt[z] + Log[E^Sqrt[z]])/(1 + Sqrt[z]) == 0
(-y + Log[E^y])/(1 + y) == 0
-y + Log[E^y] == 0
Log[E^y] == y
True

When I say "True for all x", I should omit any x that make denominators
zero in the original equation.  Good luck solving that equation!

Hi,
I'm trying to solve an integral and before getting the result 
Mathematica warns me several times with this message:

Solve::incnst: Inconsistent or redundant transcendental equation.

After reduction, the bad equation is -Sqrt[1+3x^2]/(1+Sqrt[1+3x^2]) + 
Log[Exp[Sqrt[1+3x^2]]] - Sqrt[1+3x^2]Log[Exp[Sqrt[1+3x^2]]]/(1+Sqrt[
1+3x^2]) == 0


Can anyone explain it to me??

Thanks in advance,
Andrea.
