Key Result

Proposition 1.1

(cf. [1]) There are exactly five positive integers that can be written in multiple ways as the sum of non-negative powers of 2 and non-negative powers of 3, and there are only five integers that can be expressed in two ways as ${3^a+2^b\left( a,b\in N\right) }$: 5, 11, 17, 35, 259. The five element
