Zhi-Wei Sun conjectured that a(n)>0 for every n=5,6,...; in other words, any integer n>4 can be written as the sum of an odd prime, a positive Fibonacci number and a cube of a positive Fibonacci number, with one of two Fibonacci numbers odd. He has verified this up to 3*10^7.

Zhi-Wei Sun has offered a monetary reward for settling this conjecture.
