Time-dependent fractional-derivative problems $D_t^\delta u + Au = f$ are considered, where $D_t^\delta$ is a Caputo fractional derivative of order $\delta\in (0,1)\cup (1,2)$ and~$A$ is a classical elliptic operator, and appropriate…

We give a cyclotomic proof of the fact that the equation $\frac{x^p + y^p}{x+y} = p^e z^p$ has no solutions in coprime integers $x,y,z$ and $p > 3$, a prime. This implies in particular Fermat's Last Theorem.

Let $p$ be a prime number. In the early 2000s, it was proved that the Fermat equations with coefficients \[3x^p + 8y^p + 21z^p =0\quad \text{ and } \quad 3x^p + 4y^p + 5z^p=0 \] do not admit non-trivial solutions for a set of exponents $p$…

We give a method to solve generalized Fermat equations of type $x^4 + y^4 = q z^p$, for some prime values of $q$ and every prime $p$ bigger than 13. We illustrate the method by proving that there are no solutions for $q= 73, 89$ and 113.
