%N Odd numbers k such that the ring of integers of Q(5^(1/k)) is not Z[5^(1/k)].

%C For k > 1, a != 1 being a squarefree number (a != -1 unless k is a power of 2), then the ring of integers of Q(a^(1/k)) is Z[a^(1/k)] if and only if: for every p dividing k, we have a^(p-1) !== 1 (mod p^2). In other words, O_Q(a^(1/k)) = Z[a^(1/k)] if and only if none of the prime factors of k is a Wieferich prime of base a. See Theorem 5.3 of the paper of Keith Conrad.

%C In general, if a^d == 1 (mod p^2) for some d|(p-1), then it is easy to show that x = (1 + a^(d/p) + a^(2*d/p) + ... + a^((p-1)*d/p))/p is an algebraic integer not in Z[a^(1/p)].

%C Here a = 5. Since 2 is Wieferich prime of base 5, for all even k we have O_Q(a^(1/k)) != Z[a^(1/k)]. There are only 6 other known Wieferich primes of base 5 (A123692) up to 9.7*10^14.

%e 5^10385 == 1 (mod 20771^2), so x = (1 + 5^(10385/20771) + 5^(2*10385/20771) + ... + 5^(20770*10385/20771))/20771 is an algebraic integer not in Z[5^(1/20771)].
