%N Cubefree taxicab numbers: the smallest cubefree number that is the sum of 2 positive cubes in n ways.

%C A necessary condition for the sum to be cubefree is that each pair of cubes be relatively prime.

%C If the sequence is infinite, then the Mordell-Weil rank of the elliptic curve of rational solutions to x^3 + y^3 = a(n) tends to infinity with n. In fact, the rank exceeds C*log(n) for some constant C>0 (see Silverman p. 339). - _Jonathan Sondow_, Oct 22 2013
