%N Number of ways to write n as w^4 + (x^4 + y^2 + z^2)/81, where w,x,y,z are nonnegative integers with y <= z.

%C Conjecture 1: a(n) > 0 for any nonnegative integer n. Also, every n = 0,1,2,... can be written as 4*w^4 + (x^4 + y^2 + z^2)/81 with w,x,y,z integers.

%C This implies that each nonnegative rational number can be written as w^4 + x^4 + y^2 + z^2 (or 4*w^4 + x^4 + y^2 + z^2) with w,x,y,z rational numbers.

%C Conjecture 2: For any positive integer c, there is a positive integer m such that every n = 0,1,2,... can be written as w^4 + (c^2*x^4 + y^2 + z^2)/m^4 with w,x,y,z integers.

%C This implies that for any positive integer c each nonnegative rational number can be written as w^4 + c^2*x^4 + y^2 + z^2 with w,x,y,z rational numbers.

%C Conjecture 3: For any positive odd number d, there is a positive integer m such that every n = 0,1,2,... can be written as 4*w^4 + (d^2*x^4 + y^2 + z^2)/m^4 with w,x,y,z integers.

%C This implies that for any positive odd number d each nonnegative rational number can be written as 4*w^4 + d^2*x^4 + y^2 + z^2 with w,x,y,z rational numbers.
