A Leyland number is a number that can be expressed in the form [math]\displaystyle{ x^y+y^x }[/math], where x and y are positive integers with the condition 1 < x ≤ y. These numbers are named after Paul Leyland, who first studied these numbers in 1994. The first few nontrivial Leyland numbers are given by OEIS sequence A076980.

A Leyland prime is a Leyland number which is also a prime (see sequence A094133 in OEIS).

The second kind of numbers are of the form [math]\displaystyle{ x^y-y^x }[/math].
