The conjecture for x2−2=ynx^2-2=y^n

About 6 years old · traced to

Let x,y,n∈Nx,y,n\in\mathbb{N} satisfy gcd⁡(x,y)=1\gcd(x,y)=1 and n>2n>2. The conjecture for x2−2=ynx^2-2=y^n. The equation

x2−2=ynx^2-2=y^n

has no solutions (x,y,n)(x,y,n). The source presents this as an unresolved conjecture and notes that only upper bounds are known.
