Abstract

In this paper, we investigate solutions to the Diophantine equation Aap+Bbp=Cc3 A a^p + B b^p = C c^3 over number fields using the modular method. Assuming certain standard modularity conjectures, we first establish an asymptotic result for general number fields satisfying an appropriate SS-unit condition. In particular, we verify that this condition holds for several imaginary quadratic fields. Beyond the asymptotic setting, we also obtain an effective result. Specifically, for the equation ap+dbp=c3a^p + d b^p = c^3 over K=Q(d) K = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d}) with d{7,19,43,67} d \in \{7, 19, 43, 67\} , we determine an explicit bound (depending on d d ) such that no solutions of a certain type exist whenever p p exceeds this bound.
