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…

We give solutions of a Diophantine equation containing factorials, which can be written as a cubic form, or as a sum of binomial coefficients. We also give some solutions to higher degree forms and relate some solutions to an unsolvable…

We solve the problem of existence of perfect codes in the Doob graph. It is shown that 1-perfect codes in the Doob graph D(m,n) exist if and only if 6m+3n+1 is a power of 2; that is, if the size of a 1-ball divides the number of vertices.…

We study triples {a,b,c} of distinct nonzero rational numbers such that a+1,b+1,c+1,ab+1,ac+1,bc+1 and abc+1 are all perfect squares. We prove that there exist infinitely many such triples. In contrast, we show that no triple of positive…

Consider the equation $q_1\alpha^{x_1}+\dots+q_k\alpha^{x_k} = q$, with constants $\alpha \in \overline{\mathbb{Q}} \setminus \{0,1\}$, $q_1,\ldots,q_k,q\in\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ and unknowns $x_1,\ldots,x_k$, referred to in this paper as…

In this paper, we use the method of Thue and Siegel, based on explicit Pade approximations to algebraic functions, to completely solve a family of quartic Thue equations. From this result, we can also solve the diophantine equation in the…

In the present paper, we have developed a method for solving \textit{diophantine inequalities} using their relationship with the \textit{difference between consecutive primes}. Using this approach we have been able to prove some theorems,…

Using a recent result of Salberger, we establish the paucity of non-trivial positive integer solutions to a certain system of diagonal Diophantine equations.

We consider a system of $R$ cubic forms in $n$ variables, with integer coefficients, which define a smooth complete intersection in projective space. Provided $n\geq 25R$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in…

Given a prime $p>3$, we characterize positive-definite integral quadratic forms that are coprime-universal for $p$, i.e. representing all positive integers coprime to $p$. This generalizes the $290$-Theorem by Bhargava and Hanke and extends…

For an element $r$ of a ring $R$, a Diophantine $D(r)$ $m$-tuple is an $m$-tuple $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_m)$ of elements of $R$ such that for all $i,j$ with $i\neq j$, $a_ia_j+r$ is a perfect square in $R$. In this article, we compute and…

In this paper, we study the diophantine equation ${{\sigma }_{2}}(n)-{{n}^{2}}=An+B$. We prove that except for finitely many computable solutions, all the solutions to this equation with $(A,B)=({{L}_{2m}},F_{2m}^{2}-1)$ are…

In this paper, we define a $k$-Diophantine $m$-tuple to be a set of $m$ positive integers such that the product of any $k$ distinct positive integers is one less than a perfect square. We study these sets in finite fields $\mathbb{F}_p$ for…

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}…

Let $a\geq 1, b\geq 0$ and $k\geq 2$ be any given integers. It has been proven that there exist infinitely many natural numbers $m$ such that sum of divisors of $m$ is a perfect $k$th power. We try to generalize this result when the values…

Let $p\equiv 2,5\mod 9$ be a prime. We prove that both $3p$ and $3p^2$ are cube sums. We also establish some explicit Gross-Zagier formulae and investigate the 3 part full BSD conjecture of the related elliptic curves.

We give the q-analogue of the sums of the n-th powers of positive integers up to k-1.

A perfect cuboid (PC) is a rectangular parallelepiped with rational sides $a,b,c$ whose face diagonals $d_{ab}$, $d_{bc}$, $d_{ac}$ and space (body) diagonal $d_s$ are rationals. The existence or otherwise of PC is a problem known since at…
