A179791

Values x for records of the minima of the positive distance d between the ninth power of a positive integer x and the square of an integer y such that d = x^9 - y^2 (x <> k^2 and y <> k^9).

COMMENTS

Distance d is equal to 0 when x = k^2 and y = k^9.

For d values see A179790.

For y values see A179792.

Conjecture (Artur Jasinski): For any positive number x >= A179791(n), the distance d between the ninth power of x and the square of any y (such that x <> k^2 and y <> k^9) can't be less than A179790(n).
