The quadruple $(1\,484\,801, 1\,203\,120, 1\,169\,407, 1\,157\,520)$ already known is essentially the only non-trivial solution of the Diophantine equation $x^4 + 2 y^4 = z^4 + 4 w^4$ for $|x|$, $|y|$, $|z|$, and $|w|$ up to one hundred…

In this note we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^4\pm y^4=iz^2$ using elliptic curves over $\mathbb Q(i)$. Also, using the same method we give a new proof of Hilbert's result that the equation $x^4\pm y^4=z^2$ has only…

Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\…

In this article, we study the solutions of certain type over $K$ of the Diophantine equation $x^2= By^p+Cz^p$ with prime exponent $p$, where $B$ is an odd integer and $C$ is either an odd integer or $C=2^r$ for $r \in \mathbb{N}$. Further,…

In this methodological paper, we first review the classic cubic Diophantine equation $a^3 + b^3 + c^3 = d^3$, and consider the specific class of solutions $q_1^3 + q_2^3 + q_3^3 = q_4^3$ with each $q_i$ being a binary quadratic form. Next…

The above equation is also called as Euler(6,2,5) system. By computational aspect these systems are very interesting. And we can also apply these methods to other Diophantine equations. We give a brief history of these systems and how we…

Let $\bar{X}_{n}=(x_{1},\ldots,x_{n})$ and $\sigma_{i}(\bar{X}_{n})=\sum x_{k_{1}}\ldots x_{k_{i}}$ be $i$-th elementary symmetric polynomial. In this note we prove that there are infinitely many triples of integers $a, b, c$ such that for…

In this paper, we extend recent work of the third author and Ziegler on triples of integers $(a,b,c)$, with the property that each of $(a,b,c)$, $(a+1,b+1,c+1)$ and $(a+2,b+2,c+2)$ is multiplicatively dependent, completely classifying such…

This paper is concerned with the study of diagonal Diophantine inequalities of fractional degree $ \theta ,$ where $ \theta >2$ is real and non-integral. For fixed non-zero real numbers $ \lambda_i $ not all of the same sign we write…

The title equation, where $p>3$ is a prime number $\not\equiv 7 \pmod 8$, $q$ is an odd prime number and $x,y,n$ are positive integers with $x,y$ relatively prime, is studied. When $p\equiv 3\pmod 8$, we prove (Theorem 2.3) that there are…
