We conjecture that if a system S \subseteq {x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}} has only finitely many solutions in integers x_1,...,x_n, then each such solution (x_1,...,x_n) satisfies |x_1|,...,|x_n| \leq…

In this paper, we consider the equation $(a^n-2^{m})(b^n-2^{m})=x^2$. By assuming the abc conjecture is true, in [8], Luca and Walsh gave a theorem, which implies that the above equation has only finitely many solutions $n,x$ if a and b are…
