In this methodological paper, we first review the classic cubic Diophantine equation $a^3 + b^3 + c^3 = d^3$, and consider the specific class of solutions $q_1^3 + q_2^3 + q_3^3 = q_4^3$ with each $q_i$ being a binary quadratic form. Next…
In this paper, we consider the problem about finding out perfect powers in an alternating sum of consecutive cubes. More precisely, we completely solve the Diophantine equation $(x+1)^3 - (x+2)^3 + \cdots - (x + 2d)^3 + (x + 2d + 1)^3 =…
We prove that the equation $(x-3r)^3+(x-2r)^3 + (x-r)^3 + x^3 + (x+r)^3 + (x+2r)^3+(x+3r)^3= y^p$ only has solutions which satisfy $xy=0$ for $1\leq r\leq 10^6$ and $p\geq 5$ prime. This article complements the work on the equations…
We solve Diophantine equations of the type $ a \, (x^3 \!+ \! y^3 \!+ \! z^3 ) = (x \! + \! y \! + \! z)^3$, where $x,y,z$ are integer variables, and the coefficient $a\neq 0$ is rational. We show that there are infinite families of such…
The search of solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = k$ for $k<1000$ has been extended with bounds of $|x|$, $|y|$ and $|z|$ up to $10^{15}$. The first solution for $k=74$ is reported. This only leaves $k=33$ and $k=42$…

We refine a result of W.P. Li and Wang on the values of the form $ \lambda_1p_1 + \lambda_2p_2^{2} + \lambda_3p_3^{2} + \mu_1 2^{m_1} +...+ \mu_s 2^{m_s}, $ where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are prime numbers, $m_1,..., m_s$ are positive integers,…
In this note we consider the title Diophantine equation from both theoretical as well as experimental point of view. In particular, we prove that for $k=4, 6$ and each choice of the signs our equation has infinitely many co-prime positive…

In this paper, we consider some hybrid Diophantine equations of addition and multiplication. We first improve a result on new Hilbert-Waring problem. Then we consider the equation \begin{equation} \begin{cases} A+B=C ABC=D^n \end{cases}…
This paper studies integer solutions to the Diophantine equation A+B=C in which none of A, B, C have a large prime factor. We set H(A, B,C) = max(|A|, |B|, |C|), and consider primitive solutions (gcd}(A, B, C)=1) having no prime factor p…

Even though four theorems are actually proved in this paper, two are the main ones,Teorems 1 and 3. In Theorem 1 we show that if a and be are odd squarefree positive integers satisfying certain quadratic residue conditions; then there…

The original version of this paper did not take into account that there may be solutions (x_0, y_o)in Z X Z of f(x,y) = x^3 + p(y)x + q(y) = 0 even though w_0 = (-3D(y_0))^(1/2) is irrational.
