%N a(n) = smallest |k| such that the elliptic curve y^2 = x^3 + k has rank n, or -1 if no such k exists.
%C a(n) = min{ A031507(n), A031508(n) }.
%C See A031507 and A031508 for further information.
%C a(16) <= 1160221354461565256631205207888 (Elkies, ANTS-XVI, 2024). The same article also establishes the existence of a value of k which has rank >= 17. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 05 2024
