- The Erdős-Mollin-Walsh conjecture, asserting the nonexistence of three consecutive powerful integers, remains a celebrated open problem in number theory. A natural line of inquiry, following recent work by Chan (2025), is to investigate potential counterexamples centered around perfect cubes, which are themselves powerful. This paper establishes a new non-existence result for a family of such integer triplets with distinct structural constraints, combining techniques from modular arithmetic, $p$-adic valuation, Thue equations, and the theory of elliptic curves.
