Sum of Cubes is Square of Sum

Abstract

Inspired by the fact that the sum of the cubes of the first $n$ naturals is equal to the square of their sum, we explore, for each $n$, the Diophantine equation representing all non-trivial sets of $n$ integers with this property. We find definite answers to the standard question of infinitude of the solutions as well as several other surprising results.
