On the shortest open cubic equations
Abstract
We use cubic reciprocity to prove that the equation 7x3+2y3=3z2+1 has no integer solutions. Prior to this work, it was the shortest cubic equation for which the existence of integer solutions remained open. We conclude with a list of the new shortest open cubic equations.
