Abstract.   We derive parametric solutions for 6 and 7 term ideal multigrades. These are of significantly smaller degree than previous solutions, such as those of Chernick.

2020 Mathematics Subject Classification.   11D25, 11P05, 11Y50.

Key words and phrases.   Multigrade, parametric solution, elliptic curve.
