Abstract
Let be a non-degenerate binary recurrence sequence with positive discriminant. Let be fixed prime numbers and be fixed non-negative integers. In this paper, we obtain the finiteness result for the solution of the Diophantine equation under certain assumptions. Moreover, we explicitly solve the equation , in non-negative integers with . The main tools used in this work are the lower bound for linear forms in logarithms and the Baker-Davenport reduction method.
