%N Numbers k such that Mordell's equation y^2 = x^3 - k has no integral solutions.

%C Mordell's equation has a finite number of integral solutions for all nonzero k. Gebel computes the solutions for k < 10^5. Sequence A054504 gives k for which there are no integral solutions to y^2 = x^3 + k. See A081120 for the number of integral solutions to y^2 = x^3 - n.
