COMMENT
|
It remains to prove that for certain n, pq+n != y^3 for all consecutive primes p and q. This list was computed for p and q with prime indices up to 100000. Also note that this is not a complete list but rather the first occurrence of a soluton. For example, n = 101 has 2 solutions p=29,q=31 for 29*31+101=1000 = 10^3 and p=197,p=199 for 197*199+101 = 38304 = 34^3. n square tend to have more solutions.

EXAMPLE
|
p=2,q=3,k=2. 2*3+2 = 8 a cube.

PROGRAM

(PARI) primecube(n, m) = { local(c, k, x, p1, p2, j); c=0; for(k=1, m, for(x=1, n, p1=prime(x); p2=(prime(x+1)); y=p1*p2+k; if(iscube(y), c++; print1(k", "); break; ) ) ); c; } iscube(n) = { local(r); r = n^(1/3); if(floor(r+.5)^3== n, 1, 0) }
