In this paper, we examine the Diophantine problem given by the equation $F_n = F_l^k (F_l^m - 1)$, where $n, l, m \geq 1$ and $k \geq 3$. Here, $\{ F_t \}_{t=0}^{\infty} $ denotes the Fibonacci numbers, defined by the recurrence relation…

We investigate the question of how well points on a nondegenerate $k$-dimensional submanifold $M \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by rationals also lying on $M$, establishing an upper bound on the "intrinsic Dirichlet exponent"…

Let $n$ be a nonzero integer. A set of nonzero integers $\{a_1,\ldots,a_m\}$ such that $a_ia_j+n$ is a perfect square for all $1\leq i<j\leq m$ is called a $D(n)$-$m$-tuple. In this paper, we consider the question, for given integer $n$…

In 1976, Onabe discovered that, in contrast to the Neukirch-Uchida results that were proved around the same time, a number field $K$ is not completely characterized by its absolute abelian Galois group $A_K$. The first examples of…

We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…

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…

Let $\alpha$ be an algebraic number of degree $d\ge 3$ and let $K$ be the algebraic number field $\Q(\alpha)$. When $\varepsilon$ is a unit of $K$ such that $\Q(\alpha\varepsilon)=K$, we consider the irreducible polynomial $f_\varepsilon(X)…

Here, we find all positive integer solutions of the Diophantine equation in the title, where $(\mathcal{U}_n)_{n\geqslant 0}$ is the generalized Lucas sequence $\mathcal{U}_0=0, \ \mathcal{U}_1=1$ and $\mathcal{U}_{n+1}=r \mathcal{U}_n +s…

In this paper, we investigate the multiplicative structure of a shifted multiplicative subgroup and its connections with additive combinatorics and the theory of Diophantine equations. Among many new results, we highlight our main…

In 2016 J. Koenigsmann refined a celebrated theorem of J. Robinson by proving that $\mathbb Q\setminus\mathbb Z$ is diophantine over $\mathbb Q$, i.e., there is a polynomial $P(t,x_1,\ldots,x_{n})\in\mathbb Z[t,x_1,\ldots,x_{n}]$ such that…

A general construction yielding infinitely many families of $D(m^2)$-triples of triangular numbers is presented. Moreover, each triple obtained from this construction contains the same triangular number $T_n$.

Let $D$ be a square-free integer other than 1. Let $K$ be the quadratic field ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt D)$. Let $\delta \in \{1,2\}$ with $\delta=2$ if $D\equiv 1 \pmod 4$. To each prime ideal $\mathcal P$ in $K$ that splits in $K/\mathbb Q$ we…

Except for a limited number of cases, a complete classification of the Diophantine sets of polynomial rings and fields of rational functions seems out of reach at present. We contribute to this problem by proving that several natural sets…

The paper shows that the asymptotic density of solutions of Diophantine equations or systems of the natural numbers is 0. The author provides estimation methods and estimates number, density and probability of k- tuples $<x_1,...x_k>$ to be…

The main purpose of this paper is to extend results on isomorphism types of the abelianized absolute Galois group $\mathcal G_K^{ab}$, where $K$ denotes imaginary quadratic field. In particular, we will show that if the class number $h_K$…

Let $\alpha$ be an algebraic number of degree $d\ge 3$ having at most one real conjugate and let $K$ be the algebraic number field ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha)$. For any unit $\epsilon$ of $K$ such that ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha\epsilon)=K$, we consider…

Recently, the authors showed that for every irrational number $\alpha$, there exist infinitely many positive integers $n$ represented by any given positive definite binary quadratic form $Q$, satisfying $||\alpha n||<n^{-(1/2-\varepsilon)}$…

Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…

We show that for each n-tuple of positive rational integers (a_1,..,a_n) there are sets of primes S of arbitrarily large cardinality s such that the solutions of the equation a_1x_1+...+a_nx_n=1 with the x_i all S-units are not contained in…
