%N Numbers that cannot be written as a difference of 5-smooth numbers (A051037).

%C Terms were found by generating in sequential order the 5-smooth numbers up to some limit and collecting the differences. The first 1000 candidates k were then proved to be correct by showing that each of the following congruences holds:

%C {5} +- k !== {2,3} mod 205910575871,

%C {3} +- k !== {2,5} mod 220411358713,

%C {2} +- k !== {3,5} mod 3019333681,

%C where {a,b,...} represents the subgroup generated by a,b,... of the multiplicative subgroup modulo m. For a discussion iof this method of proof see A308247.

%e 281 = A308247(3) cannot be written as the difference of 5-smooth numbers. All smaller numbers can; for example, 277 = 3^4*5 - 2^7, 271 = 2^3*5^3 - 3^6.
