Abstract
We examine the equation for positive integers and . This equation can be expressed as a problem in terms of the Zeckendorf representations of integers. Using bounds on linear forms in logarithms and Baker-Davenport reduction methods, we are able to completely solve the equation for when , for when , for when , and for when .
