Let $k \ge 2$ be even, and let $r$ be a non-zero integer. We show that for almost all $d \ge 2$ (in the sense of natural density), the equation $$ x^k+(x+r)^k+\cdots+(x+(d-1)r)^k=y^n, \qquad x,~y,~n \in \mathbb{Z}, \qquad n \ge 2, $$ has no…

Consider the diophantine equation $(3^{x_1}-1)(3^{x_2}-1)=(5^{y_1}-1)(5^{y_2}-1)$ in positive integers $x_1\le x_2$, and $y_1\le y_2$. Each side of the equation is a product of two terms of a given binary recurrence, respectively. In this…

Any nonlinear equation of the form y''=\sum_{n=0}^N a_n(z)y^n has a (generally branched) solution with leading order behaviour proportional to (z-z_0)^{-2/(N-1)} about a point z_0, where the coefficients a_n are analytic at z_0 and…

In this paper, using a basic algebraic approach, we demonstrate that, if the integers $x,y$ and $z$ are pairwise relatively prime, and $x^p-my^p=zw$ where $m$ is an integer and $p$ is a prime, then we can write $x,y,m,z$ and $w$ as explicit…
