BALKAN 2021 Problem 3

  • Paper

Let a,ba, b and cc be positive integers satisfying the equation

(a,b)+[a,b]=2021c.(a, b)+[a, b]=2021^{c} .

If ∣a−b∣|a-b| is a prime number, prove that the number (a+b)2+4(a+b)^{2}+4 is composite. Here, (a,b)(a, b) denotes the greatest common divisor of aa and bb, and [a,b][a, b] denotes the least common multiple of aa and bb.
