The abc conjecture is one of the most famous unsolved problems in number theory. The conjecture claims for each real $\epsilon > 0$ that there are only a finite number of coprime positive integer solutions to the equation $a+b = c$ with $c…
The abc conjecture, one of the most famous open problems in number theory, claims that three positive integers satisfying a+b=c cannot simultaneously have significant repetition among their prime factors; in particular, the product of the…
The conjecture of Masser-Oesterl\'e, popularly known as $abc$-conjecture have many consequences. We use an explicit version due to Baker to solve a number of conjectures.
This paper describes a method used to construct infinitely many probable counterexamples of the abc conjecture over the rational integers.
By an $abc$ triple, we mean a triple $(a,b,c)$ of relatively prime positive integers $a,b,$ and $c$ such that $a+b=c$ and $\operatorname{rad}(abc)<c$, where $\operatorname{rad}(n)$ denotes the product of the distinct prime factors of $n$.…
In this paper, we state a conjecture on the prime factorization of numbers of the form $n!+1$, explore its implications, and compare it with empirical evidence and established results based on the $abc$ conjecture.
We study solutions to the equation $a+b=c$, where $a,b,c$ form a triple of coprime natural numbers. The $abc$ conjecture asserts that, for any $\epsilon>0$, such triples satisfy $\mathrm{rad}(abc) \ge c^{1-\epsilon}$ with finitely many…
This article seeks to encourage a mathematical dialog regarding a possible solution to Beals Conjecture. It breaks down one of the worlds most difficult math problems into laymans terms and encourages people to question some of the most…
Some class of sums which naturally include the sums of powers of integers is considered. A number of conjectures concerning a representation of these sums is made.
The Subspace Theorem is a powerful tool in number theory. It has appeared in various forms and been adapted and improved over time. It's applications include diophantine approximation, results about integral points on algebraic curves and…
The Collatz and $abc$ conjectures, both well known and thoroughly studied, appear to be largely unrelated at first sight. We show that assuming the $abc$ conjecture true is helpful to improve the lower bound of integers initiating a…
This note imparts heuristic arguments and theorectical evidences that contradict the abc conjecture over the rational numbers. In addition, the rudimentary datails for transforming this problem into the doimain of equidistribution theory…
In this paper we present some observations about the well-known Goldbach conjecture. In particular we list and interpret some numerical results which allow us to formulate a relation between prime numbers and even integers. We can also…
The $abc$ conjecture predicts a highly non trivial upper bound for the height of an algebraic point in terms of its discriminant and its intersection with a fixed divisor of the projective line counted without multiplicity. We describe the…
We study the size of the exceptional set in the $abc$ conjecture, improving on and simplifying work of Browning, Lichtman and Ter\"av\"ainen.
We show the finiteness of perfect powers in orbits of polynomial dynamical systems over an algebraic number field. We also obtain similar results for perfect powers represented by ratios of consecutive elements in orbits. Assuming the…
This paper presents some considerations about the Goldbach's conjecture (GC). The work is based on elementary results of the number theory and it provides a constructive method that permits, given an even integer, to find at least a pair of…
In this paper, we give a form of refined Roth's theorem. As an application, we prove a special case of the $abc$-conjecture.
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) has advanced in two decades from a seminal idea to a practically applicable inference tool for simulator-based statistical models, which are becoming increasingly popular in many research domains. The…
Transcendental numbers play an important role in many areas of science. This paper contains a short survey on transcendental numbers and some relations among them. New inequalities for transcendental numbers are stated in Section 2 and…
