According to the famous Pythagorean Theorem, a Pythagorean triple (a, b, c) consists of positive integers a, b and c such that

a2 + b2 = c2. An irreducible Pythagorean triple is a Pythagorean triple (a, b, c) such that a, b and c are mutually relatively prime integers. We say that (a, b, c) is an irreducible super Pythagorean triple if

a2 + b2 = c2 and a3 + b3 + c3 is a perfect cube (i.e., a cube of a positive integer). For example, (3, 4, 5) is an irreducible super Pythagorean triple because of 32 + 42 = 52 and

33 + 43 + 53 = 216 = 63.

It is well known that there exist infinitely many irreducible Pythagorean triples.

Do there exist some other irreducible super Pythagorean triples?
