Let $u_n$ be a fixed non-degenerate binary recurrence sequence with positive discriminant, $w$ a fixed non-zero integer and $p_1,p_2,\dots,p_s$ fixed, distinct prime numbers. In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation $u_n+u_m=w…
If the function $f$ is transcendental and meromorphic in the plane, and either $f$ has finitely many poles or its inverse function has a logarithmic singularity over infinity, then the equation $\dot z = f(z)$ has infinitely many…
It is shown that if w(z) is a finite-order meromorphic solution of the equation H(z,w) P(z,w) = Q(z,w), where P(z,w) = P(z,w(z),w(z+c_1),...,w(z+c_n)) is a homogeneous difference polynomial with meromorphic coefficients, and H(z,w) =…
We describe meromorphic solutions to the equations $f^n(z)+\left(f'\right)^n(z)=e^{\alpha z+\beta}$ and $f^n(z)+f^n(z+c)=e^{\alpha z+\beta}$ ($c\neq0$) over the complex plane $\mathbf{C}$ for integers $n\geq1$.
Let $X$ and $Y$ be rational functions of degree at least two with complex coefficients such that $\mathbb{C}(X,Y)=\mathbb{C}(z)$. We study the problem of determining when the field extension $[\mathbb{C}(z):\mathbb{C}(X)\cap\mathbb{C}(Y)]$…
We give an explicit upper bound for the number of equivalence classes of binary forms with rational integral coefficients of given degree and given discriminant, and with given splitting field. Further, we give an explicit upper bound for…

This paper introduces a robust class of functions from finite words to integers that we call Z-polyregular functions. We show that it admits natural characterizations in terms of logics, Z-rational expressions, Z-rational series and…
By restricting the variables running over various (possibly different) subfields, we introduce the notion of a partial zeta function. We prove that the partial zeta function is rational in an interesting case, generalizing Dwork's well…
Let f(1)=1, and let f(n+1)=2^{2^{f(n)}} for every positive integer n. We conjecture that if a system S \subseteq {x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}} \cup {x_i+1=x_k: i,k \in {1,...,n}} has only finitely many solutions in non-negative…
Given two permutable entire functions $f$ and $g,$ we establish vital relationship between escaping sets of entire functions $f, g$ and their composition. We provide some families of transcendental entire functions for which Eremenko's…
Let f be a nonconstant meromorphic function in the plane and h be a nonconstant elliptic function. We show that if all zeros of f are multiple exept finitely many and T(r,h)=o{T(r,f)} as r tends to infinity, then f'=h has infinitely many…
Under a mild Lipschitz condition we prove a theorem on the existence and uniqueness of global solutions to delay fractional differential equations. Then, we establish a result on the exponential boundedness for these solutions.
In the present article we describe a class of algebraic curves on which rational functions of two arguments may reach all their possible limiting values. We also solve a similar question for functions that can be represented as a uniform…
Geoffrion's theorem is a fundamental result from mathematical programming assessing the quality of Lagrangian relaxation, a standard technique to get bounds for integer programs. An often implicit condition is that the set of feasible…
In this paper, we investigate meromorphic solutions in $\mathbb{C}^m$ of the nonlinear differential equation \[\displaystyle f^n\partial_u(f)g^n\partial_u(g)=1,\] where $\partial_u(f)=\sum_{j=1}^mu_j\partial_j(f)$ and $\sum_{j=1}^m u_j\neq…
Recently, the present authors used Nevanlinna theory to provide a classification for the Malmquist type difference equations of the form $f(z+1)^n=R(z,f)$ $(\dag)$ that have transcendental meromorphic solutions, where $R(z,f)$ is rational…
For two meromorphic functions $ f $ and $ g $, the equation $ f^m+g^m=1 $ can be regarded as Fermat-type equations. Using Nevanlinna theory for meromorphic functions in several complex variables, the main purpose of this paper is to…
We give defining equations for function fields over finite fields with many rational places. They are obtained from composita of quadratic extensions of the rational function field.
An old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, proved by Schinzel, predicted a bound for the number of terms of a polynomial $g(x) \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ when its square $g(x)^2$ has a given number of terms. Further conjectures and results arose,…
