Abstract

Let DD be a positive nonsquare integer, pp a prime number with pDp \nmid D, and 0<σ<0.8470< \sigma < 0.847. We show that if the equation x2+D=pnx^2+D=p^n has a huge solution (x0,n0)(p,σ)(x_0,n_0)_{(p,\sigma)}, then there exists an effectively computable constant CpC_p such that for every x>CPx> C_P with x2+D=pn.mx^2+D=p^n.m , we have m>xσ m > x^{\sigma}. As an application, we show that for x{1015,5}x \neq \{1015,5 \}, if the equation x2+76=101n.mx^2+76=101^n.m holds, we have m>x0.14 m > x^{0.14}. .
