Let $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_R)$ be a system of polynomials with integer coefficients in which the degrees need not all be the same. We provide sufficient conditions for which the system of equations $f_j (x_1, \ldots, x_n) = 0 \ (1…

Let a1,..., a9 be non-zero integers and n any integer. Suppose that a1 + ... + a9 = n (mod 2) and (ai, aj) = 1 for 1 <= i < j <= 9. We will prove that (i) if not all of the aj's are of the same sign, then the cubic diagonal equation a1p1^3…

An asymptotic formula for the number of prime solutions of a general diagonal system of Diophantine equations is established, contingent on the existence of an appropriate mean value bound and on local solvability. In conjunction with the…

We prove that if $p \equiv 4,7 \pmod{9}$ is prime and $3$ is not a cube modulo $p$, then both of the equations $x^3+y^3=p$ and $x^3+y^3=p^2$ have a solution with $x,y \in \mathbb{Q}$.

Let g be a cubic polynomial with integer coefficients and n>9 variables, and assume that the congruence g=0 modulo p^k is soluble for all prime powers p^k. We show that the equation g=0 has infinitely many integer solutions when the cubic…

We prove asymptotic formulae for small weighted solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $\lambda_1x_1^2+\cdots +\lambda_nx_n^2\equiv \lambda_{n+1}\bmod{p^m}$, where $p$ is a fixed odd prime, $\lambda_1,...,\lambda_{n+1}$ are integer…

Let $p>5$ be a fixed prime. We obtain an asymptotic formula related to small solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+x_2^2\equiv x_3^2\bmod{p^n}$ where $\max\{|x_1|,|x_2|,|x_3|\}\le p^{\nu n}$ with $\nu>1/2$.

We derive an upper bound for the least number of variables needed to guarantee that a system of t quadratic forms (t>=2) over a field F has a nontrivial zero. In particular, if F is a local field, then 2t^2+3 variables insure the existence…

Vinogradov's three primes theorem indicates that, for every sufficiently large odd integer $N$, the equation $N=p_1+p_2+p_3$ is solvable in prime variables $p_1,p_2,p_3$. In this paper, it is proved that Vinogradov's three primes theorem…
