What is known about the sequence f(n)=min{|x^n+y^n-z^n|} over integers x,y,z>1? Are there known values greater 1 and known n with f(n)=1? Which initial values and non-trivial (i.e. better than 2^n) upper bounds are known (apart from f(1)=f(2)=0, and f(3)<3 since 5^3+6^3=7^3-2). Etc. Valery Liskovets
