Additional quadruples (a, b, r, s) for totient-power representations
Determine whether there exist positive integer quadruples (a, b, r, s), other than (1, 1, 2, 2) and those satisfying gcd(ar, bs) = 1, such that every positive rational number can be written as ((φ(m^r))^a)/((φ(n^s))^b) for some m, n ∈ ℕ.

At the end of , Vu proposed the following open problem. Besides $(a, b, r, s) = (1, 1, 2, 2)$ and $(a, b, r, s)$ with $\gcd(ar, bs) = 1$, are there any other positive integer quadruples $(a, b, r, s)$ such that every positive rational number can be written in the form $(\varphi(m{r})){a}/(\varphi(n{s})){b}$, where $m, n\in\mathbb{N}$?
