| Jun 16, 2023 at 22:39 | comment | added | Stanley Yao Xiao | I think the general question of finding all positive integer solutions to the system of congruences might be beyond current technology, but the restricted question of looking for solutions corresponding to irreducible degrees of a finite group might be tractable. Thus I believe this is an interesting question, because it seems to lie on the boundary of what’s currently approachable | |
