COMMENTS

The set of x values of integral points on the elliptic curve y^2 = x^3 + x^2 - 9*x + 16.

EXAMPLE

0^3 + (-5)^2 + (-9) = 4^2, 1^3 + (-4)^2 + (-8) = 3^2, 3^3 + (-2)^2 + (-6) = 5^2

MATHEMATICA

ok[x_] := Reduce[{y^2 == x^3 + x^2 - 9*x + 16, y >= 0}, y, Integers] =!= False; Select[Table[x, {x, -4, 10000}], ok ] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Sep 07 2011 *)

PROG

(MAGMA) P<n> := PolynomialRing(Integers()); {x: x in Sort([ p[1] : p in IntegralPoints(EllipticCurve(n^3 + n^2 - 9*n + 16)) ])};

(SAGE) EllipticCurve([0, 1, 0, -9, 16]).integral_points()
