Comments

Don Zagier's conjecture that the polynomial x^7 + 3y^7 is injective on rational numbers is equivalent to the non-existence of any term in this sequence that is exactly 3 times another term in this sequence.

Example

2059 = 3^7 - 2^7, 2315 = 3^7 + 2^7, 358061 = 6^7 + 5^7, 543607 = 7^7 - 6^7.
