| Jun 12, 2021 at 23:53 | comment | added | Gerry Myerson | The general question of integer solutions to $1+x+x^2+\cdots+x^m=y^n$ has been the subject of much study and many papers. I don't have any details at my fingertips, but one place to look would be Richard Guy's book, Unsolved Problems In Number Theory, and another would be Mordell's book, Diophantine Equations. One solution is $(x,m,y,n)=(3,4,11,2)$. | |
