On a Diophantine problem with two primes and s powers of two

Number Theory 2013-02-14 v2

Abstract

We refine a recent result of Parsell on the values of the form λ1p1+λ2p2+μ12m1+...m+μs2ms,\lambda_1p_1 + \lambda_2p_2 + \mu_1 2^{m_1} + ...m + \mu_s 2^{m_s}, where p1,p2p_1,p_2 are prime numbers, m1,...c,msm_1,...c, m_s are positive integers, λ1/λ2\lambda_1 / \lambda_2 is negative and irrational and λ1/μ1\lambda_1 / \mu_1, λ2/μ2\Q\lambda_2/\mu_2 \in \Q.
