A Leyland number is a specific type of integer that is defined in a mathematical context. Specifically, a Leyland number is of the form \\( a^b + b^a \\), where \\( a \\) and \\( b \\) are positive integers greater than or equal to 1. The interest in Leyland numbers is largely due to their properties in number theory and their applications in computational mathematics.
