From Robert Israel, Oct 29 2019: (Start)
The first number that occurs in more than one way is 1845, as 205^4 + 410^5 = 1476^4 + 369^5 = 1845^4.
If m is a term then so is x^5*m for any x.
Includes s*(s^4-t^4)/u^5 if s>t>0 and s^4 == t^4 (mod u^5), as x = t*(s^4-t^4)/u^5, y = (s^4-t^4)/u^4, m = s*(s^4-t^4)/u^5 is a solution. (End)
An infinite subfamily is given by m = k*(k+1)*(k^2+1)/4 for k != 2 (mod 4). Corresponding solutions x = k*(k-1)*(k^2+1)/4 and y = k*(k^2+1)/2. - Rayhan Ahmed, Apr 18 2026
A generalized infinite subfamily: m = n*(n^4 - d^4) with x = d*(n^4 - d^4) and y = n^4 - d^4, where n > d >= 1. The case d = 1 yields A061167(n) for n >= 2. - Rayhan Ahmed, May 05 2026
