For a nonzero integer $n$, a set of distinct nonzero integers $\{a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_m\}$ such that $a_ia_j+n$ is a perfect square for all $1\leq i<j\leq m$, is called a Diophantine $m$-tuple with the property $D(n)$ or simply $D(n)$-set.…

We show that for infinitely many square-free integers q there exist infinitely many triples of rational numbers {a, b, c} such that a^2 + q, b^2 + q, c^2 + q, ab + q, ac + q and bc + q are squares of rational numbers.

It is important in drawing techniques to find combinations of two straight lines and their angle bisectors whose slopes are all rational numbers. This problem is reduced to solving the Diophantine equation $(a-c)^2(b^2+1) = (b-c)^2(a^2+1).$…

We deeply investigate the Diophantine equation $cx^2+d^{2m+1}=2y^n$ in integers $x, y\geq 1, m\geq 0$ and $n\geq 3$, where $c$ and $d$ are given coprime positive integers such that $cd\not\equiv 3 \pmod 4$. We first solve this equation for…

A famous problem posed by Diophantus was to find sets of distinct positive rational numbers such that the product of any two is one less than a rational square. Some sets of six such numbers are presented and the computational algorithm…

We consider Diophantine equations of the kind $|F(x,y)|= m$, where $F(X,Y )\in \bz [X,Y]$ is a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d\ge 3$ that has non-zero discriminant and $m$ is a positive integer. We prove results that simplify those of…

Let k => 1, m => 1 be small fixed integers, gcd(k, m) = 1. This note develops some techniques for proving the existence of infinitely many primes solutions x = p, and y = q of the linear Diophantine equation y = mx + k.

Let k>=2 and let (Q_{n}^{(k)})_{n>=2-k} be the k-generalized Pell sequence defined by Q_{n}^{(k)}=2Q_{n-1}^{(k)}+Q_{n-2}^{(k)}+...+Q_{n-k}^{(k)} for n>=2 with initial conditions Q_{-(k-2)}^{(k)}=Q_{-(k-3)}^{(k)}=...=Q_{-1}^{(k)}=0,…

A triple of positive integers (d,h,m) is admissible if for any m given masses in R^d there exist h hyperplanes that cut each of these masses into 2^h equal pieces. We present an elementary reduction which combined with results by Ramos…

Diophantine equations are a popular and active area of research in number theory. In this paper we consider Mordell equations, which are of the form $y^2=x^3+d$, where $d$ is a (given) nonzero integer number and all solutions in integers…

Erd\"os and Obl\'ath proved that the equation $n!\pm m!=x^p$ has only finitely many integer solutions. More general, under the ABC-conjecture, Luca showed that $P(x)=An!+Bm!$ has finitely many integer solutions for polynomials of degree…

We use sums of Liouville type to count the number of ways a positive integer can be represented by the forms $(a+c)^{1/3}x + (b+d)y$, $(a+c)x + \bigl(k(b+d) \bigr)^{1/3} y$, and $\bigl(k(a+c) \bigr)^{1/3} x + l(b+d) y$ for nonnegative…

We prove that every Diophantine quadruple in $\mathbb{R}[X]$ is regular. More precisely, we prove that if $\{a, b, c, d\}$ is a set of four non-zero polynomials from $\mathbb{R}[X]$, not all constant, such that the product of any two of its…

We consider a variety of Euler's conjecture, i.e., whether the Diophantine system \[\begin{cases} n=a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1}, a_{1}a_{2}\cdots a_{s-1}(a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1})=b^{s} \end{cases}\] has solutions…

The generalized Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture, proposed by Wac\l{}aw Sierpi\'{n}ski in 1956, asks whether the Diophantine equation \[ \frac{5}{a} = \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} + \frac{1}{d} \] admits positive integer solutions $b,c,d \in…
