In 2012, T. Miyazaki and A. Togb\'{e} gave all of the solutions of the Diophantine equations $(2am-1)^x+(2m)^y=(2am+1)^z$ and $b^x+2^y=(b+2)^z$ in positive integers $x,y,z,$ $a>1$ and $b\ge 5$ odd. In this paper, we propose a similar…

The Diophantine equation (x^n-1)/(x-1)=y^q has four known solutions in integers x, y, q and n with |x|, |y|, q > 1 and n > 2. Whilst we expect that there are, in fact, no more solutions, such a result is well beyond current technology. In…

This work determine the entire family of positive integer solutions of the diophantine equation. The solution is described in terms of $\frac{(m-1)(m+n-2)}{2} $ or $\frac{(m-1)(m+n-1)}{2}$ positive parameters depending on $n$ even or odd.…

In this paper we consider Diophantine equations of the form $f(x)=g(y)$ where $f$ has simple rational roots and $g$ has rational coefficients. We give strict conditions for the cases where the equation has infinitely many solutions in…

We give the complete solution in integers $(n,a,b,x,y)$ of the title equation when $\gcd(x,y)=1$, except for the case when $xab$ is odd.

In this paper, we solve Diophantine equation in the tittle in nonnegative integers m,n, and a. In order to prove our result, we use lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms and and a version of the Baker-Davenport reduction method in…

This paper investigates the exponential Diophantine equation of the form $a^x+b=c^y$, where $a, b, c$ are given positive integers with $a,c \ge 2$, and $x,y$ are positive integer unknowns. We define this form as a "Type-I transcendental…

In this paper, we determine the primitive solutions of the Diophantine equation $(x-d)^2+x^2+(x+d)^2=y^n$ when $n\geq 2$ and $d=p^b$, $p$ a prime and $p\leq 10^4$. The main ingredients are the characterization of primitive divisors on…

Let L_t denote the t-th Lucas number. We prove that the Diophantine equation L_m^{n+k} + L_m^n = L_r has no solutions in positive integers r, m, n, and k with m >= 2. In the case n = 1, the proof is based on a precise factorization formula…

We consider Diophantine equations of the shape $ f(x) = g(y) $, where the polynomials $ f $ and $ g $ are elements of power sums. Using a finiteness criterion of Bilu and Tichy, we will prove that under suitable assumptions infinitely many…

This paper is a continuation of [1], in which I studied Harvey Friedman's problem of whether the function f(x,y) = x^2 + y^3 satisfies any identities; however, no knowledge of [1] is necessary to understand this paper. We will break the…

Let (a,b,c) be a primitive Pythagorean triple, i.e., a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2} with gcd(a,b,c)=1, a even and b odd. Terai's conjecture says that the Diophantine equation x^{2}+b^{y}=c^{z} has only the positive integer solutions (x,y,z)=(a,2,2). In…
