%C A representation k = (x^3 + y^3 + z^3)/(x*y*z) is equivalent to 2 representations k = a/b + b/c + c/a, given by a=y^2*z, b=z^2*x, c=x^2*y and a=y*z^2, b=x*y^2, c=z*x^2. - _Dean Hickerson_, Jul 14 2003

%C For each a(n) > 5 there are infinitely many representations. - _David J. Rusin_, Jul 15 2003

%e 15 is in the sequence because 15 = (7^3 + (-3)^3 + (-1)^3)/(7*-3*-1) = (7^3 - 3^3 - 1^3)/(7*3*1) = (343 - 27 - 1)/21. This is equivalent to 15 = -9/7 - 7/147 + 147/9 or 15 = -3/63 - 63/49 + 49/3.

%e 16 = (70^3 + (-31)^3 + (-9)^3)/(70*-31*-9) = (70^3 - 31^3 - 9^3)/(70*31*9) = (343000 - 29791 - 729)/19530.
