In an earlier paper, Tatong and Suvarnamani explores the Diophantine equation $p^x + p^y = z^2$ for a prime number $p$. In that paper they find some solutions to the equation for $p=2, 3$. In this paper, we look at a general version of this…
A set is said to be \emph{3-free} if no three elements form an arithmetic progression. Given a 3-free set $A$ of integers $0=a_0<a_1<\cdots<a_t$, the \emph{Stanley sequence} $S(A)=\{a_n\}$ is defined using the greedy algorithm: For each…
We are studying the Diophantine exponent \mu_{n,l}$ defined for integers 1 \leq l < n and a vector \alpha \in \mathbb{R}^n by letting \mu_{n,l} = \sup{\mu \geq 0: 0 < ||x \cdot \alpha|| < H(x)^{-\mu} for infinitely many x \in C_{n,l} \cap…
In this paper one shows if the number of natural solutions of a general linear equation is limited or not. Also, it is presented a method of solving the Diophantine equation $ax-by=c$ in the set of natural numbers, and an example of solving…
For a non-integral real number $c>1$, let $\mathbb{N}_{(c)}:=\{\lfloor n^c\rfloor ~|~ n\in\mathbb{N}\}$. We show that $\mathbb{N}_{(c)}$ contains thin subbases of every order $h\geq 5$ when $1<c<2$, and $h\geq (\lfloor 2c\rfloor+1)(\lfloor…
Let $m\geq 3$. Suppose that $$ 1-2^{-2^{m^24^m}}<\gamma<1. $$ Then the set $$ \{p\text{ prime}:\, p=[n^{\frac1\gamma}]\text{ for some }n\in{\mathbb N}\} $$ contains infinitely many non-trivial $m$-term arithmetic progressions.
Let $n$ be a non-negative integer and put $p_{n}(x)=\prod_{i=0}^{n}(x+i)$. In the first part of the paper, for given $n$, we study the existence of integer solutions of the Diophantine equation $$ y^m=p_{n}(x)+\sum_{i=1}^{k}p_{a_{i}}(x), $$…
Given the solution $f$ of the sequential fractional differential equation $_{a}D_{t}^{\alpha}(_{a}D_{t}^{\alpha}f)+P(t)f=0$, $t\in[b,c]$, where $-\infty<a<b<c<+\infty$, $\alpha\in({1/2},1)$ and $P:[a,+\infty)\to[0,P_{\infty}]$,…
Let $\{ {U_{n}\}_{n \geq 0} }$ be a non-degenerate binary recurrence sequence with positive discriminant. Let $\{p_1,\ldots, p_s\}$ be fixed prime numbers and $\{b_1,\ldots ,b_s\}$ be fixed non-negative integers. In this paper, we obtain…
Starting from degree N solutions of a time dependent Schroedinger-like equation for classical orthogonal polynomials, a linear matrix equation describing perturbations around the N zeros of the polynomial is derived. The matrix has…
A number alpha in R is diophantine if it is not well approximable by rationals, i.e. for some C, nu>0 and any relatively prime p, q in Z we have |alpha q -p|>C q^{-1-\vu}. It is well-known and easy to prove that almost every alpha in R is…
In this paper, we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $P_\ell + P_m +P_n=2^a$, in nonnegative integer variables $(n,m,\ell, a)$ where $P_k$ is the $k$-th term of the Pell sequence $\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ given by $P_0=0$, $P_1=1$…
These notes represent an extended version of a talk I gave for the participants of the IMO 2009 and other interested people. We introduce diophantine equations and show evidence that it can be hard to solve them. Then we demonstrate how one…
Let k => 1, m => 1 be small fixed integers, gcd(k, m) = 1. This note develops some techniques for proving the existence of infinitely many primes solutions x = p, and y = q of the linear Diophantine equation y = mx + k.
We prove a new bound to the exponential sum of the form $$ \sum_{h \sim H}\delta_h \mathop{\sum_{m\sim M}\sum_{n\sim N}}_{mn\sim x}a_{m}b_{n}\e\big(\alpha mn + h(mn + u)^{\gamma}\big), $$ by a new approach to the Type I sum. The sum can be…
For $0<\alpha<1$, we study the zeros of the sequence of polynomials $\left\{ P_{m}(z)\right\} _{m=0}^{\infty}$ generated by the reciprocal of $(1-t)^{\alpha}(1-2zt+t^{2})$, expanded as a power series in $t$. Equivalently, this sequence is…
In this work we develop exact formulas to the number of solutions of $ax+by+cz=n$ in some special cases. In 2020, Binner gave a formula for the number of non negative integer solutions, $N(a,b,c;n)$ in non-negative integer pairs $(x,y,z),$…
We consider expansions of Presburger arithmetic with families of monadic polynomial predicates. (Examples of such predicates are the set of perfect squares, or the set of integers of the form $2n^3-5n+3$, etc.) Although the full attendant…
We show that given $\alpha \in (0, 1)$ there is a constant $c=c(\alpha) > 0$ such that any planar $(\alpha, 2\alpha)$-Furstenberg set has Hausdorff dimension at least $2\alpha + c$. This improves several previous bounds, in particular…
In this paper we obtain a sharp upper bound for the number of solutions to a certain diophantine inequality involving fractions with power denominator. This problem is motivated by a conjecture of Zhao concerning the spacing of such…
