We study Diophantine equations of type $f(x)=g(y)$, where $f$ and $g$ are lacunary polynomials. According to a well known finiteness criterion, for a number field $K$ and nonconstant $f, g\in K[x]$, the equation $f(x)=g(y)$ has infinitely…
We present Euler-type recurrence relations for some partition functions. Some of our results provide new recurrences for the number of unrestricted partitions of $n$, denote by $p(n)$. Others establish recurrences for partition functions…
F. Luca proved for any fixed rational number $\alpha>0$ that the Diophantine equations of the form $\alpha\,m!=f(n!)$, where $f$ is either the Euler function or the divisor sum function or the function counting the number of divisors, have…
In this paper, we gave solutions of the Diophantine equations 16^{x}+p^{y}=z^{2}, 64^{x}+p^{y}=z^{2} where p is an odd prime, n is a positive integer and x,y,z are non-negative integers. Finally we gave a generalization of the Diophantine…
Two Diophantine equation generator function for integer residuals produced by integer division over closed intervals are presented. One each for the closed intervals [1,Floor(n^0.5)] and [Ceiling(n^0.5),n], respectively.
Monograph "B. Grechuk, Polynomial Diophantine equations. A systematic approach" suggests solving Diophantine equations systematically in certain order. Many hundreds of the equations are left to the reader. Here, we provide complete…
We present structural results on solutions to the Diophantine system $A{\boldsymbol y} = {\boldsymbol b}$, ${\boldsymbol y} \in \mathbb Z^t_{\ge 0}$ with the smallest number of non-zero entries. Our tools are algebraic and number theoretic…
We derive a closed expression for the number of nonnegative solutions of a certain system of linear Diophantine equations. The motivation comes from high energy physics where the nonnegative solutions play a crucial role in the perturbative…
Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\…
By using techniques of poset representation theory, we present a formula for the number of partitions of a positive integer into three polygonal numbers.
We generalize the well known Glaisher partition bijection result. For given positive integers n, d, both greater than 1, we provide a rich family of bijections between the set of partitions of n where at least one part is divisible by d,…
We derive a combinatorial multisum expression for the number $D(n,k)$ of partitions of $n$ with Durfee square of order $k$. An immediate corollary is therefore a combinatorial formula for $p(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$. We then…
I propose two simple ways of generating the partitions of (n+1) from the partitions of n. A recurrence relation for P(n+1), the number of partitions of (n+1), in terms of P(n) and Q(n), where Q(n) denotes the number of partitions of n…
Let E_n={x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. If Matiyasevich's conjecture on single-fold Diophantine representations is true, then for every computable function f:N->N there is a positive integer m(f) such that for…
Motivated by questions in cryptography, we look for diophantine equations that are hard to solve but for which determining the number of solutions is easy.
In this paper, we solve Diophantine equation in the tittle in nonnegative integers m,n, and a. In order to prove our result, we use lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms and and a version of the Baker-Davenport reduction method in…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. We prove an estimate for fractional parts of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ satisfying a certain divisibility condition…
For an arbitrary set or multiset $A$ of positive integers, we associate the $A$-partition function $p_A(n)$ (that is the number of partitions of $n$ whose parts belong to $A$). We also consider the analogue of the $k$-colored partition…
Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of all nonnegative integers. For any integer $r$ and $m$, let $r+m\mathbb{N}=\{r+mk: k\in\mathbb{N}\}$. For $S\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, let $R_{S}(n)$ denote the number of solutions of the…
If $a_1, a_2, ..., a_k$ and $n$ are positive integers such that $n = a_1 + a_2 + ... + a_k$, then the sum $a_1 + a_2 + ... + a_k$ is said to be a \emph{partition of $n$} of \emph{length $k$}, and $a_1, a_2, ..., a_k$ are said to be the…
