Is there a solution n such that n^n = (x^3 + y^3) / 2 where x > y > 0?

The answer to the above question is yes: 76^76 = (523974089123227128080087214816032969930445946880^3 + 314384453473936276848052328889619781958267568128^3)/2. Other examples include 112^112 and 172^172. - Chai Wah Wu, Jan 18 2016

Example

1 is a term because 1^1 = 1 = (1^3 + 1^3) / 2.
3 is a term because 3^3 = 27 = (3^3 + 3^3) / 2.
8 is a term because 8^8 = 2^24 = (256^3 + 256^3) / 2.
