Integer solutions of the diophantine equation $A^4+hB^4=C^4+hD^4$ are known for all positive integer values of $h < 1000$. While a solution of the aforementioned diophantine equation for any arbitrary positive integer value of $h$ is not…

In this paper, we deal with two classes of Diophantine equations, $x^2+y^2+z^2+k_1yz+k_2zx+k_3xy=(3+k_1+k_2+k_3)xyz$ and $x^2+y^4+z^4+ky^2z^2+2xz^2+2xy^2=(7+k)xy^2z^2$, where $k_1,k_2,k_3,k$ are nonnegative integers. The former is known as…
