COMMENTS

The abc conjecture (or Oesterlé-Masser conjecture) is a conjecture in number theory, first proposed by Joseph Oesterlé and David Masser in 1985, stated in terms of three positive integers, a, b and c (whence the name), which have no common factor and satisfy a + b = c. Quantity q = log(c)/log(rad(a*b*c)) where rad(k) = A007947(k), is the product of the distinct prime factors of k. This is the q > 1 column of the wikipedia table taken from RekenMeeMetABC.nl (2011). Goldfeld (1996) described the abc conjecture as "the most important unsolved problem in Diophantine analysis." Jordan Ellenberg at Quomodocumque reports on a potential breakthrough in number theory, a claimed proof of the abc conjecture by Shin Mochizuki.

EXAMPLE
|
a(2) = 6 because there are 6 (a,b,c) triples with c < 10^2 and q > 1. Those triples are {1,8,9}, {1,48,49}, {1,63,64}, {1,80,81}, {5,27,32}, and {32,49,81}.
