Let $c$ be a positive odd integer and $R$ a set of $n$ primes coprime with $c$. We consider equations $X + Y = c^z$ in three integer unknowns $X$, $Y$, $z$, where $z > 0$, $Y > X > 0$, and the primes dividing $XY$ are precisely those in…
We describe the sequences {x_n}_n given by the non-autonomous second order Lyness difference equations x_{n+2}=(a_n+x_{n+1})/x_n, where {a_n}_n is either a 2-periodic or a 3-periodic sequence of positive values and the initial conditions…
Suppose that $c,d,\alpha,\beta$ are real numbers satisfying the inequalities $1<d<c<79/71$ and $1<\alpha<\beta<6^{1-d/c}$. In this paper, it is proved that, for sufficiently large real numbers $N_1$ and $N_2$ subject to $\alpha\leqslant…

We study the multiplicity of positive solutions for a two-point boundary value problem associated to the nonlinear second order equation $u''+f(x,u)=0$. We allow $x \mapsto f(x,s)$ to change its sign in order to cover the case of scalar…
Nonlinear higher order difference equations with linear arguments (containing linear forms within nonlinear maps of the space) are well-defined on Banach algebras. The scalar forms of these equations (i.e., with real variables and…

Systems of the form $x = (A x^s)^{1/s} + b$ arise in a range of economic, financial and control problems, where $A$ is a linear operator acting on a space of real-valued functions (or vectors) and $s$ is a nonzero real value. In these…
Let $\gamma(t)=(P_1(t),\ldots,P_n(t))$ where $P_i$ is a real polynomial with zero constant term for each $1\leq i\leq n$. We will show the existence of the configuration $\{x,x+\gamma(t)\}$ in sets of positive density $\epsilon$ in…
Existence results for a class of Choquard equations with potentials are established. The potential has a limit at infinity and it is taken invariant under the action of a closed subgroup of linear isometries of $\mathbb{R}^N$. As a…
For $(M,a)=1$, put \begin{equation*} G(X;M,a)=\sup_{p^\prime_n\leq X}(p^\prime_{n+1}-p^\prime_n), \end{equation*} where $p^\prime_n$ denotes the $n$-th prime that is congruent to $a\pmod{M}$. We show that for any positive $C$, provided $X$…
