Philippe_57721 · Math ·

The Hurwitz equation is the following diophantine equation.
For fixed n,k>0: x12+x22++xn2=kx1x2xn for k,nN
It can be proved that when this equation has solutions, then kn.

Can you find all the k such as this equation has solution for n=61 ?

Answer format: comma delimited list of ks.

You are given: 1,4,5,13,23 for n = 23
