Answer by Servaes for Is $100$ the only square number of the form $a^b+b^a$?
(21-03-2020) Update: As no unconditional answer has yet been given, I will include a few more conditions that any solution must satisfy. The results used are rather advanced, so I will only include...

$\newcommand{\eps}{\varepsilon}$$\newcommand{\rad}{\mathrm{rad}}$At least, under the abc conjecture, there can be only finitely many pairs $(a,b)$with $b>a>1$ coprime such that $a^b+b^a$ is a...
