According to Skolem's conjecture, if an exponential Diophantine equation is not solvable, then it is not solvable modulo an appropriately chosen modulus. Besides several concrete equations, the conjecture has only been proved for rather…

\noindent In this article, we determine all the integers $c$ having at least two representations as difference between two linear recurrent sequences. This is a variant of the Pillai's equation. This equation is an exponential Diophantine…

We give a survey on some results covering the last 60 years concerning Je\'smanowicz' conjecture. Moreover, we conclude the survey with a new result by showing that the special Diophantine equation $$(20k)^x+(99k)^y=(101k)^z$$ has no…

The objective of the paper is to determine the complete solutions for the Diophantine equation $x^2 + 3^{\alpha}113^{\beta} = y^{\mathfrak{n}}$ in positive integers $x$ and $y$ (where $x, y \geq 1$), non-negative exponents $\alpha$ and…

Let $ \{T_n\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Tribonacci numbers. In this paper, we study the exponential Diophantine equation $T_n-2^x3^y=c$, for $n,x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$. In particular, we show that there is no integer $c$ with at…

In this short note we study the existence and number of solutions in the set of integers ($Z$) and in the set of natural numbers ($N$) of Diopahntine Equations of second degree with two variables of the general form $ax^2-by^2=c$.

In this work, we give upper bounds for $n$ on the title equation. Our results depend on assertions describing the precise exponents of $2$ and $3$ appearing in the prime factorization of $T_{k}(x)=(x+1)^{k}+(x+2)^{k}+...+(2x)^{k}$. Further,…

In [1] it is shown that the Diophantine equation $(k!)^n+k^n=(n!)^k+n^k$ only has the trivial solution $n=k$, and $(k!)^n-k^n=(n!)^k-n^k$ only has the solutions $n=k$, $(n, k)=(1, 2),$ and $(2, 1)$. In this article we find all solutions of…

Catalan's conjecture claims that the Diophantine equation $x^p-y^q=1$ admits the unique solution $3^2-2^3=1$ in integers $x,y,p,q \ge 2$. The conjecture has been finally proved by P. Mih\u{a}ilescu (2002) using the theory of cyclotomic…

We obtain an essentially optimal estimate for the moment of order 32/3 of the exponential sum having argument $\alpha x^3+\beta x^2$. Subject to modest local solubility hypotheses, we thereby establish that pairs of diagonal Diophantine…

A nontrivial solution of the equation A!B! = C! is a triple of positive integers (A, B, C) with A $\le$ B $\le$ C -- 2. It is conjectured that the only nontrivial solution is (6, 7, 10), and this conjecture has been checked up to C = 10 6.…

Let $\ell, m, r$ be fixed positive integers such that $2\nmid \ell$, $3\nmid \ell m$, $\ell>r$ and $3\mid r$. In this paper, using the BHV theorem on the existence of primitive divisors of Lehmer numbers, we prove that if $\min\{r\ell…

For relatively prime natural numbers $a$ and $b$, we study the two equations $ax+by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax+by+1= (a-1)(b-1)/2$, which arise from the study of cyclotomic polynomials. Previous work showed that exactly one equation has a…
