The representation of almost all numbers as sums of unlike powers
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Tome 13 (2001) no. 1, pp. 227-240.

Nous prouvons dans cet article que presque tout entier s'écrit comme la somme d'un cube, d'un bicarré, ..., et d'une puissance dixième.

We prove in this article that almost all large integers have a representation as the sum of a cube, a biquadrate, ..., and a tenth power.
