Diophantine Equation--6th PowersThe 2-1 equation
 | (1) |
is a special case of Fermat's Last Theorem with , and so has no solution. Ekl (1996) has searched and found no solutions to the 2-2
 | (2) |
with sums less than .
No solutions are known to the 3-1 or 3-2 equations. However, parametric solutions are known for the 3-3 equation
 | (3) |
(Guy 1994, pp. 140 and 142). Known solutions are
 |  |  | (4) |  |  |  | (5) |  |  |  | (6) |  |  |  | (7) |  |  |  | (8) |  |  |  | (9) |  |  |  | (10) |  |  |  | (11) |  |  |  | (12) |  |  |  | (13) |
(Rao 1934, Lander et al. 1967).
No solutions are known to the 4-1 or 4-2 equations. The smallest primitive 4-3 solutions are
(Lander et al. 1967). Moessner (1947) gave three parametric solutions to the 4-4 equation. The smallest 4-4 solution is
 | (19) |
(Rao 1934, Lander et al. 1967). The smallest 4-4-4 solution is
 | (20) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
No -1 solutions are known for (Lander et al. 1967). No solution to the 5-1 equation is known (Guy 1994, p. 140) or the 5-2 equation.
No solutions are known to the 6-1 or 6-2 equations.
The smallest 7-1 solution is
 | (21) |
(Lander et al. 1967). The smallest 7-2 solution is
 | (22) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
The smallest primitive 8-1 solutions are

(Lander et al. 1967). The smallest 8-2 solution is
 | (37) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
The smallest 9-1 solution is
 | (38) |
(Lander et al. 1967). The smallest 9-2 solution is
 | (39) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
The smallest 10-1 solution is
 | (40) |
(Lander et al. 1967). The smallest 10-2 solution is
 | (41) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
The smallest 11-1 solution is
 | (42) |
(Lander et al. 1967).
There is also at least one 16-1 identity,  | |  | (43) | (Martin 1893). Moessner (1959) gave solutions for 16-1, 18-1, 20-1, and 23-1. References
