COMMENTS

Warning: these entries have not been proved to be correct! There may be missing terms. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Jan 05 2007

Conjecture: The greatest prime divisor of x divides y and z.

Many of these values are derived from the essentially trivial solution {x,y,z} ={(a + b)*b*(3*a^2 + 3*a*b + b^2), a*b*(3*a^2 + 3*a*b + b^2), b*(3*a^2 + 3*a*b + b^2)}. This solution follows from the fact that (a+b)^3-a^3 = b*(3*a^2 + 3*a*b + b^2) and that multiplying this equation by [b*(3*a^2 + 3*a*b + b^2)]^3 gives a solution to y^3 - x^3 = z^4. - James McLaughlin, Jan 27 2007

EXAMPLE

x=762, y=889, 889^3 - 762^3 = 127^4, so 762 is on the list.
