The sufficient conditions for insolvability of the Diophantine equation $\sum_{i=1}^{m}x_i^{n}=bc^{n}$ ($n, m \geq 2$, $b, c\in \mathbb{N}$) in nonnegative integers are obtained for the case where the canonical decomposition of the number…

We prove that there exist infinitely many quartic rational Diophantine quadruples, that is, sets of four pairwise distinct nonzero rational numbers whose pairwise products increased by 1 are fourth powers in Q. To the best of our knowledge,…

In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation $ V_n - b^m = c $ for given integers $ b,c $ with $ b \geq 2 $, whereas $ V_n $ varies among Lucas-Lehmer sequences of the second kind. We prove under some technical conditions that if the…

In this note we will analyze a diophantine equation raised by Michael Bennett in [1] that is pivotal in establishing that powers of five has few digits in its ternary expansion. We will show that the Diophantine equation…

Let E_n={x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. For a positive integer n, let f(n) denote the greatest finite total number of solutions of a subsystem of E_n in integers x_1,...,x_n. We prove: (1) the function f is…

The Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture is a fundamental unsolved problem in metric number theory. It asserts that for every non-negative function $\psi:~\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ for almost all reals $x$ there are infinitely many coprime…

In this paper, we derived the parametric solution of Euler and Elkies, xyz(x+y+z) = a, in an elementary manner. In addition we proved there are infinitely many parametric solutions of Euler's and Elkies's family of solutions.

We are motivated by a result of Alzer and Luca who presented all the integer solutions to the relations $(k!)^n-k^n=(n!)^k-n^k$ and $(k!)^n+k^n=(n!)^k+n^k$. We modify the equations by considering the double factorial instead and present all…

We introduce the theory of div point sets, which aims to provide a framework to study the combinatoric nature of any set of points in general position on an Euclidean plane. We then show that proving the unsatisfiability of some first-order…

We give a survey on some results covering the last 60 years concerning Je\'smanowicz' conjecture. Moreover, we conclude the survey with a new result by showing that the special Diophantine equation $$(20k)^x+(99k)^y=(101k)^z$$ has no…

We show that Mazur's conjecture on the real topology of rational points on varieties implies that there is no diophantine model of the rational integers in the rational numbers. We also prove that there is a diophantine model of the…

Catalan's conjecture claims that the Diophantine equation $x^p-y^q=1$ admits the unique solution $3^2-2^3=1$ in integers $x,y,p,q \ge 2$. The conjecture has been finally proved by P. Mih\u{a}ilescu (2002) using the theory of cyclotomic…

Let E_n={x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. For each integer n \geq 13, J. Browkin defined a system B_n \subseteq E_n which has exactly b_n solutions in integers x_1,...,x_n, where b_n \in N\{0} and the sequence…

Let $S := \{p_1,\ldots ,p_{\ell}\}$ be a finite set of primes and denote by $\mathcal{U}_S$ the set of all rational integers whose prime factors are all in $S$. Let $(U_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate linear recurrence sequence with order…

In this paper, we use some extension of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem to find a family of matrices with integer entries that satisfy the non-linear Diophantine equation $ x^{n}+y^{p}=z^{q}$ where $n,p$ and $q$ are arbitrary positive integers.

Recursive formulas are derived for the number of solutions of linear and quadratic Diophantine equations with positive coefficients. This result is further extended to general non-linear additive Diophantine equations. It is shown that all…

In this work, we give upper bounds for $n$ on the title equation. Our results depend on assertions describing the precise exponents of $2$ and $3$ appearing in the prime factorization of $T_{k}(x)=(x+1)^{k}+(x+2)^{k}+...+(2x)^{k}$. Further,…

Let $r\ge 1$ be an integer and ${\bf U}:=\{U_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ be the Lucas sequence given by $U_0=0,~U_1=1$, and $U_{n+2}=rU_{n+1}+U_n$ for $n\ge 0$. In this paper, we explain how to find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation,…

The aim of this note is to show that given a positive integer $n \geq 5$, the positive integral solutions of the diophantine equation $4/n = 1/x + 1/y+1/z$ cannot have solution such that $x$ and $y$ are coprime with $xy < \sqrt{z/2}$. The…
