COMMENTS

Conjecture: no number can be expressed as such a sum in more than one way.

No solutions to the 7.2.2 (A^7 + B^7 = C^7 + D^7), 7.2.3, 7.2.4, or 7.2.5 equations are known. The smallest 7.2.6 equation is: 125^7 + 24^7 = 121^7 + 94^7 + 83^7 + 61^7 + 57^7 + 27^7 = 476841744674549. - Jonathan Vos Post (jvospost3(AT)gmail.com), May 04 2006
