In this paper we are interested in solving the Fermat-type equations x^5+y^5=dz^p where d is a positive integer and p a prime number $\ge 7$. We describe a new method based on modularity theorems which allows us to improve all the results…

Point transformations for the ordinary differential equations of the form $y''=P(x,y)+3 Q(x,y) y'+3 R(x,y) (y')^2+S(x,y) (y')^3$ are considered. Some classical results are resumed. Solution for the equivalence problem for the equations of…

This note proves two theorems regarding Fermat-type equation $x^r + y^r = dz^p$ where $r \geq 5$ is a prime. Our main result shows that, for infinitely many integers~$d$, the previous equation has no non-trivial primitive solutions such…

In our work we study the equations of the form $aX^4+bX^2 Y^2+cY^4=dZ^2$ over Gaussian integers by a method of the resolvents. We study as a new equations $X^4+6X^2 Y^2+Y^4=Z^2$ (Mordell's equation over $\mathbb{Z}[i]$),…

We consider the number of solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ for the purely exponential Diophantine equation $a^x+b^y =c^z$ (with $\gcd(a,b)=1$). Apart from a list of known exceptions, a conjecture published in 2016 claims that this…

We classify all geometric torsion points on the Fermat quotients $y^n = x^d + 1$ where $n, d \ge 2$ are coprime. In addition, we classify all geometric torsion points on the generic superelliptic curve $y^n = (x - a_1) \cdots (x - a_d)$,…

Given odd, coprime integers $a$, $b$ ($a>0$), we consider the Diophantine equation $ax^2+b^{2l}=4y^n$, $x, y\in\Bbb Z$, $l \in \Bbb N$, $n$ odd prime, $\gcd(x,y)=1$. We completely solve the above Diophantine equation for…

Let $f(m,n)$ be the number of primitive lattice triangulations of $m\times n$ rectangle. We compute the limits $\lim_n f(m,n)^{1/n}$ for $m=2$ and $3$. For $m=2$ we obtain the exact value of the limit which is equal to $(611+\sqrt{73})/36$.…

Let $C(n)$ denote the number of permutations $\sigma$ of $[n]=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ such that $\gcd(j,\sigma(j))=1$ for each $j\in[n]$. We prove that for $n$ sufficiently large, $n!/3.73^n < C(n) < n!/2.5^n$.

We give a generalization of Collatz conjecture or 3n+1 problem on 2-adic completion of Q. A isometric of $Q_2$ provides information on the average behavior of the firsts terms of the sequence according to the class of $u_0$ modulo $2^m$. A…

Let $ p \ge 5 $ be a prime and let $ b, c \in \mathbb{Z} $. Denote by $ T_k(b,c) $ the generalized central trinomial coefficient, i.e., the coefficient of $ x^k $ in $ (x^2 + bx + c)^k $. In this paper, we establish congruences modulo $ p^3…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a squarefree integer $d$ for there to be non-trivial solutions to $x^{3} + y^{3} = z^{3}$ in $\Q(\sqrt{d})$, conditional on the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. These conditions are…

The problem of simplicity of Fermat number-twins $f_{n}^{\pm}=2^{2^n}\pm3$ is studied. The question for what $n$ numbers $f_{n}^{\pm}$ are composite is investigated. The factor-identities for numbers of a kind $x^2 \pm k $ are found.

We consider the generalized Lebesgue-Ramanujan-Nagell equation $x^2+17^k41^\ell 59^m=2^\delta y^n$ in the unknown integers $x\geq 1, y>1,n\geq 3$ and $k, \ell, m\geq 0$ satisfying $\gcd(x,y)=1$. We first find all the integer solutions of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of $q=p^k$ elements. For any $z\in \mathbb{F}_q$, let $A_n(z)$ and $B_n(z)$ denote the number of solutions of the equations $x_1^3+x_2^3+\cdots+x_n^3=z$ and $x_1^3+x_2^3+\cdots+x_n^3+zx_{n+1}^3=0$…

We show that Fermat's last theorem and a combinatorial theorem of Schur on monochromatic solutions of $a+b=c$ implies that there exist infinitely many primes. In particular, for small exponents such as $n=3$ or $4$ this gives a new proof of…

We present a unified framework for constructing integer solutions to $A^{n} + B^{n} = C^{n} + D^{n}$ for $n=2,3$. For $n=2$, we derive explicit formulas for any solutions via differences of squares. For $n=3$, we introduce general formulas…

This paper proposes a generalized ABC conjecture and assuming its validity settles a generalized version of Fermats last theorem.

We use Zagier's one-sentence proof approach to show that a prime number $p$ admits a form $p=a^2+ab+b^2$ for some integers $a$ and $b$ if and only if $p=3$ or $p\equiv 1 \pmod{3}$.

We consider three types of isogonal conjugacy of two points with respect to a given triangle and characterize any of these types by a geometric equality. As an application to the Fermat problem with positive weights, we prove that in the…
