“…Jeśmanowicz [8] conjectured that if , , are Pythagorean numbers, i.e., positive integers satisfying 2 + 2 = 2 , then (1.1) has only the positive integer solution ( , , ) = (2, 2, 2) (cf. [14,17,22]). As an analogue of Jeśmanowicz' conjecture, the author proposed that if , , , , , are fixed positive integers satisfying + = with , , , , , ≥ 2 and gcd( , ) = 1, then (1.1) has only the positive integer solution ( , , ) = ( , , ) except for a handful of triples ( , , ) (cf.…”
