Here Taxicab(2,j,k) denotes the smallest number (if it exists) that is the sum of j perfect squares in exactly k ways. For sufficiently large N, Taxicab(2,j,k) either always exists for j > N or always does not exist for j > N. Conjecture: Infinitely many positive integers are in this sequence, and infinitely many positive integers are not in this sequence. Conjecture: This sequence grows exponentially. Computationally it appears to have asymptotic a(n) = 17.5603exp(-0.0327825n).

| EXAMPLE
|
Example: For k = 3, Taxicab(2,j,3) does not exist for all j > 9, hence 3 is not a member of the sequence.

| Charles R Greathouse IV: I hope I’m not misunderstanding the example?
|

| Charles R Greathouse IV: I don’t understand the second conjecture, doesn’t that go to 0 at infinity? For exponential growth I’d expect a positive exponent.
|

| Charles R Greathouse IV: The sequence is definitely interesting, I just want to get it cleaned up before publication.
