Apr 3, 2019 at 5:42 comment added user35593 Maybe I was wrong. It turns out that if you fix some $s, p$ then $ab+bc+ca$ is a monotonically increasing in the maximum $a$. Maybe one can prove somithing similar for $a^n+b^n+c^n$ or one can prove that it is monoton in $ab+bc+ca$.

Apr 3, 2019 at 5:21 comment added user35593 I dont think your conjecture is true. $a^n+b^n+c^n$ can be written in terms of $s=a+b+c$, $p=abc$ and $ab+bc+ca=a(s-a)+p/a$. If you fix $s$ and $p$ you can find $a>x$ with $a(s-a)+p/a=x(s-x)+p/x$ and therefore if you define $b,c, y,z$ s.t. $a+b+c=x+y+z=s$ and $abc=xyz=p$ that $a^n+b^n+c^n=x^n+y^n+z^n$ for all $n$. Now if you perturb $x$ slightly you can make $x^n+y^n+z^n$ larger while $a>x$ is still true
