%N Find smallest k such that k^n is a sum of n n-th powers, say k^n = T(n,1)^n + ... + T(n,n)^n. Sequence gives triangle of successive rows T(n,1), ..., T(n,n). T(n,1) = ... = T(n,n) = 0 indicates no solution exists.

%E A few particular solutions are known for k = 4: 651^4 = 240^4 + 340^4 + 430^4 + 599^4, 5281^4 = 1000^4 + 1120^4 + 3233^4 + 5080^4, 7703^4 = 2230^4 + 3196^4 + 5620^4 + 6995^4, ... The smallest one is 353^4 = 30^4 + 120^4 + 272^4 + 315^4.
