Let $ \{L_n\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Lucas numbers. In this paper, we look at the exponential Diophantine equation $L_n-2^x3^y=c$, for $n,x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$. We treat the cases $c\in -\mathbb{N}$, $c=0$ and $c\in \mathbb{N}$…

We prove that for every integer $n$, there exist infinitely many $D(n)$-triples which are also $D(t)$-triples for $t\in\mathbb{Z}$ with $n\ne t$. We also prove that there are infinitely many triples with the property $D(-1)$ in…

The Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture, proposed in 1948 by Paul Erd\H{o}s and Ernst G. Straus, asks whether the Diophantine equation \[ \frac{4}{a} = \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} + \frac{1}{d} \] admits positive integer solutions $b, c, d \in…
