In this paper we give solutions of certain diophantine equations related to triangular and tetrahedral numbers and propose several problems connected with these numbers. The material of this paper was presented in part at the 11th…
In this paper, we investigate solutions to the Diophantine equation $ A a^p + B b^p = C c^3 $ over number fields using the modular method. Assuming certain standard modularity conjectures, we first establish an asymptotic result for general…
The aim of this paper is to prove the possibility of linearization of such equations by means of introduction of new variables. For $n=2$ such a procedure is well known, when new variables are components of spinors and they are widely used…
We present in this article a general approach (in the form of recommendations and guidelines) for tackling Diophantine equation problems (whether single equations or systems of simultaneous equations). The article should be useful in…
After a brief introduction to the classical theory of binary quadratic forms we use these results for proving (most of) the claims made by P\'epin in a series of articles on unsolvable quartic diophantine equations, and for constructing…
We prove two results concerning the generalized Fermat equation $x^4+y^4=z^p$. In particular we prove that the First Case is true if $p \neq 7$.
The inequalities concern the sum of s powers of primes with non-integer exponent c>1. Here s =2,3,4,or 5. The equations are similar, taking integer part before summing; here s = 3 or 5. New ranges of c are found in all cases for which many…
We completely solve the problem of enumerating combinatorially inequivalent $d$-dimensional polytopes with $d+3$ vertices. A first solution of this problem, by Lloyd, was published in 1970. But the obtained counting formula was not correct,…
This paper provides asymptotics with a sharp error term for the Dirichlet summatory function of a certain class of arithmetic functions. The result applies, e.g., to the sums over r^2(n) and r(n^3), where r(m) denotes the number of ways to…
In this paper we obtain four new parametric ideal solutions of the Tarry-Escott problem of degree 7, that is, of the simultaneous diophantine equations, $\sum_{i=1}^8x_i^r=\sum_{i=1}^8y_i^r,\;r=1,\,2,\,\dots,\,7$. While all the known…
Let $d$ be a positive integer. Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $\alpha$ be a real algebraic number of degree $d+1$. We establish that there exist a positive constant $c$ and infinitely many algebraic numbers $\xi$ of degree $d$ such that…
It is shown that the quartic Fermat equation $x^4 +y^4=1$ has nontrivial integral solutions in the Hilbert class field $\Sigma$ of any quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ whose discriminant satisfies $-d \equiv 1$ (mod 8). A corollary…
The subject matter of this work are the linear, three variable diophantine equation ax+by+cz=d (1), and the diophantine system ax+by+cz=d (2) ex+fy+gz=h with the coefficients a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h being integers. Introductory number theory books,…
Let $1<c<832/825$. For large real numbers $N>0$ and a small constant $\vartheta>0$, the inequality \begin{equation*} |p_1^c+p_2^c+p_3^c+p_4^c-N|<\vartheta \end{equation*} has a solution in prime numbers $p_1,\,p_2,\,p_3,\,p_4$ such that,…
A rational Diophantine m-tuple is a set of m nonzero rationals such that the product of any two of them increased by 1 is a perfect square. The first rational Diophantine quadruple was found by Diophantus, while Euler proved that there are…
We obtain some new inequalities between the ordinary and the uniform Diophantine exponents for simultaneous Diophantine approximation to four real numbers.
When $k\ge 4$ and $0\le d\le (k-2)/4$, we consider the system of Diophantine equations \[ x_1^j+\ldots +x_k^j=y_1^j+\ldots +y_k^j\quad (1\le j\le k,\, j\ne k-d). \] We show that in this cousin of a Vinogradov system, there is a paucity of…

A set $\{a, b, c, d\}$ of four non-zero distinct polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}[i][X]$ is said to be a Diophantine $D(4)$-quadruple if the product of any two of its distinct elements increased by 4 is a square of some polynomial in…
