%N Least positive integer x such that n + x^2 = y^3 + z^5 for some positive integers y and z, or 0 if no such x exists.

%C Conjecture: If {a,b,c} is among the multisets {2,2,p} (p is an odd prime or a product of primes congruent to 1 modulo 4) and {2,3,k} (k = 3,4,5), then for any integer m there are (infinitely many) triples (x,y,z) of positive integers such that m = x^a + y^b - z^c.

%C This implies that a(n) > 0 for all n. Also, it includes the conjectures in A266152, A266212 and A266230 as special cases.

%C For any odd prime p == 3 (mod 4) and odd integer n > 1, I have proved that x^{pn} + (2p)^p with x an integer is never a sum of two squares. - _Zhi-Wei Sun_, Jan 06 2016

%p a(0) = 3 since 0 + 3^2 = 2^3 + 1^5.

%p a(2) = 83 since 2 + 83^2 = 19^3 + 2^5.

%p a(42) = 32834 since 42 + 32834^2 = 781^3 + 57^5.

%p a(445) = 903402 since 445 + 903402^2 = 9345^3 + 34^5.

%p a(510) = 10875037 since 510 + 10875037^2 = 40712^3 + 551^5.
