In this paper we study mixed sums of primes and linear recurrences. We show that if m=2(mod 4) and m+1 is a prime then $(m^{2^n-1}-1)/(m-1)\not=m^n+p^a$ for any n=3,4,... and prime power p^a. We also prove that if a>1 is an integer, u_0=0,…

In this paper we present an elementary proof for a special case of Fermat's last theorem for specific category of a, b and c. In fact, we assume that $n$ is prime and $4\rvert (n+1),$ then for $a,b$ and $c$ that $ n\nmid abc$ the equation…

Let $m\ge3$ be an integer. The polygonal numbers of order $m+2$ are given by $p_{m+2}(n)=m\binom n2+n$ $(n=0,1,2,\ldots)$. A famous claim of Fermat proved by Cauchy asserts that each nonnegative integer is the sum of $m+2$ polygonal numbers…

We develop machinery to explicitly determine, in many instances, when the difference $x^2-y^n$ is divisible only by powers of a given fixed prime. This combines a wide variety of techniques from Diophantine approximation (bounds for linear…

Two centuries ago, Sophie Germain began to work on her grand plan to prove the theorem of Fermat, the famous conjecture that $x^n + y^n = z^n$ is impossible for nonzero integral values of $x$, $y$, and $z$, when $n > 2$. At that time, this…

In this paper, we begin the study of the Fermat equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ over real biquadratic fields. In particular, we prove that there are no non-trivial solutions to the Fermat equation over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3})$ for $n\geq 4$.

We prove a short general theorem which immediately implies some classical results of Hasse, Guillera and Sondow, Paolo Amore, and also Alzer and Richards. At the end we obtain a new representation for the Euler constant gamma. The theorem…

New series representations for odd powers of {\pi} i.e. {\pi}, {\pi}3 and {\pi}5 in terms of Euler numbers and even powers of {\pi} i.e. {\pi}2, {\pi}4 and {\pi}6 in terms of Bernoulli numbers have been obtained empirically.
