Comments

The general conjecture in A266277 implies that for any integer m there are positive integers x, y and z such that m + x^2 = y^3 + z^4.

Example

a(0) = 6 since 0 + 6^4 = 28^2 + 8^3.
a(2) = 69 since 2 + 69^4 = 44^2 + 283^3.
a(5) = 46 since 5 + 46^4 = 1742^2 + 113^3.
a(570) = 983 since 570 + 983^4 = 546596^2 + 8595^3.
a(8078) = 2255 since 8078 + 2255^4 = 1926054^2 + 28083^3.
