%N Good examples of Hall's conjecture: integers x such that 0 < |x^3 - y^2| < sqrt(x) for some integer y.

%C Hall conjectured that the nonzero difference k = x^3 - y^2 cannot be less than C x^(1/2), for a constant C. His original conjecture, probably false, has been reformulated in the following way: For any exponent e < 1/2, a constant K_e > 0 exists such that |x^3 - y^2| > K_e x^e.

%C Danilov found an infinite family of solutions to |x^3 - y^2| < sqrt(x). For more detail see A200216. [_Artur Jasinski_, Nov 04 2011]
