Brassil-Reichstein's conjecture on a system of cubic equations

Let a>b0a>b\geq 0 be integers and let [Z1:Z2:Z3]P2(Q)[Z_1:Z_2:Z_3]\in \mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{Q}). Brassil–Reichstein's conjecture. The system

Z13+Z23+9Z33=0,Z_1^3+Z_2^3+9Z_3^3=0, 3aZ1+3bZ2+Z3=03^aZ_1+3^bZ_2+Z_3=0

has no solution (a,b,[Z1:Z2:Z3])(a,b,[Z_1:Z_2:Z_3]). This conjecture is used to establish trace conditions for general field extensions of degrees of the form 3k1+3k2+3k33^{k_1}+3^{k_2}+3^{k_3}; its resolution status is not specified in the source.
