- Solution of this type was first found by A.Letac
in 1940's.[5] [25]
- [ 0, 3083, 3301, 11893, 23314, 24186, 35607,
44199, 44417, 47500 ] = [ 12, 2865, 3519, 11869, 23738, 23762, 35631, 43981,
44635, 47488 ]
- The second solution was obtained by G.Palama
in 1950[33] and C.J.Smyth in 1990.[22]
Their methods both were based on Letac's method. See also (
h = 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 ) for more information.
- The smallest two solutions are found by Peter
Borwein, Petr Lisonek and Colin Percival in 2000.
