Problem

Let $p$ be the least prime number for which there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $n^{4}+1$ is divisible by $p^{2}$ . Find the least positive integer $m$ such that $m^{4}+1$ is divisible by $p^{2}$ .

Solution

$n^4+1\equiv 0\pmod{p^2}\implies n^8 \equiv 1\pmod{p^2}\implies p_{min}=17$

From there, we could get $n\equiv \pm 2, \pm 8\pmod{17}$

By doing binomial expansion bash, the four smallest $n$ in this case are $110, 134, 155, 179$ , yielding $\boxed{110}$
