Inspired by the fact that the sum of the cubes of the first $n$ naturals is equal to the square of their sum, we explore, for each $n$, the Diophantine equation representing all non-trivial sets of $n$ integers with this property. We find…

We introduce a $q$-deformation of the Pythagoras equation $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$, which is a polynomial version of it different from the standard one. We construct a polynomial analogue, or ``$q$-analogue'', of every primitive Pythagorean…

For relatively prime natural numbers $a$ and $b$, we study the two equations $ax+by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax+by+1= (a-1)(b-1)/2$, which arise from the study of cyclotomic polynomials. Previous work showed that exactly one equation has a…

In this paper, we solve the simultaneous Diophantine equations(SDE) x_1^u+...+x_n^u=k(y_1^u+...+y_{n/k}); u=1,3, where n >3, and k< n, is a divisor of n , and obtain nontrivial parametric solution for them. Furthermore we present a method…

Given any positive integer n, we prove the existence of infinitely many right triangles with area n and side lengths in certain number fields. This generalizes the famous congruent number problem. The proof allows the explicit construction…

Diophantine equations are a popular and active area of research in number theory. In this paper we consider Mordell equations, which are of the form $y^2=x^3+d$, where $d$ is a (given) nonzero integer number and all solutions in integers…
