We explore primitive Pythagorean triples of special forms $(a,b,b+g)$ and $(a,a+f,c)$, with $g,f\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. For each $g$ and $f$, we provide a method to generate infinitely many such primitive triples. Lastly, for each $g$, we…

We show that for any irrational $\alpha$ and any $\tau<8/23$ there are infinitely many $n$ which are the product of two primes for which $$\|n\alpha\|\leq n^{-\tau}.$$ We also show that for all sufficiently large $b$ there exist 3-digit…

In this paper, we proposed an interesting problem that might be classified into enumerative combinatorics. Featuring a distinctive two-fold dependence upon the sequences' terms, our problem can be really difficult, which calls for novel…

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…

We consider the Hardy-H\'enon system $-\Delta u =|x|^a v^p$, $-\Delta v =|x|^b u^q$ with $p,q>0$ and $a,b\in {\mathbb R}$ and we are concerned in particular with the Liouville property, i.e. the nonexistence of positive solutions in the…

In paper on a classification of Lehmer triples, Juricevic conjectured that there are infinitely many primes of special form. We disprove one of his conjectures and consider the other one.

We consider a variety of Euler's conjecture, i.e., whether the Diophantine system \[\begin{cases} n=a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1}, a_{1}a_{2}\cdots a_{s-1}(a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{s-1})=b^{s} \end{cases}\] has solutions…

We solve Diophantine equations of the type $ a \, (x^3 \!+ \! y^3 \!+ \! z^3 ) = (x \! + \! y \! + \! z)^3$, where $x,y,z$ are integer variables, and the coefficient $a\neq 0$ is rational. We show that there are infinite families of such…

This article deals with a conjecture, introduced in [GQ] (hereinafter $SFLT2$), which generalizes the second case of Fermat's Last Theorem: {\it Let $p>3$ be a prime. The diophantine equation $\frac{u^p+v^p}{u+v}=w_1^p$ with $u,v,u+v,…

Hasanalizade [1] studied Deaconescu's conjecture for positive composite integer $n$. A positive composite integer $n\geq4$ is said to be a Deaconescu number if $S_2(n)\mid \phi(n)-1$. In this paper, we improve Hasanalizade's result by…

We prove that for every irrational number $\alpha$, real number $\beta$, real number $c$ satisfying $1<c<9/8$ and positive real number $\theta$ satisfying $\theta<(9/c-8)/10$, there exist infinitely many primes of the form…

We consider several old problems involving the number of prime divisors function $\omega(n)$, as well as the related functions $\Omega(n)$ and $\tau(n)$. Firstly, we show that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that…

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 \ =\…

In this paper we show that, for any fixed $1<c<\frac{5363}{3900}$, every sufficiently large positive number $N$ and a small constant $\varepsilon>0$, the diophantine inequality \begin{equation*} |p_1^c+p_2^c+p_3^c+p_4^c+p_5^c-N|<\varepsilon…

The sufficient conditions for insolvability of the Diophantine equation $\sum_{i=1}^{m}x_i^{n}=bc^{n}$ ($n, m \geq 2$, $b, c\in \mathbb{N}$) in nonnegative integers are obtained for the case where the canonical decomposition of the number…

The Goldbach conjecture states that every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers. This conjecture was first proposed by German mathematician Christian Goldbach in 1742 and, despite being obviously true,…

The pentagonal numbers are the integers given by $p_5(n)=n(3n-1)/2\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$. Let $(b,c,d)$ be one of the triples $(1,1,2),(1,2,3),(1,2,6)$ and $(2,3,4)$. We show that each $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ can be written as $w+bx+cy+dz$ with…

Generalizing an argument of Matiyasevich, we illustrate a method to generate infinitely many diophantine equations whose solutions can be completely described by linear recurrences. In particular, we provide an integer-coefficient…

Let $p>3$ be a prime. Euler numbers $E_{p-3}$ first appeared in H. S. Vandiver's work (1940) in connection with the first case of Fermat Last Theorem. Vandiver proved that $x^p+y^p=z^p$ has no solution for integers $x,y,z$ with…

Let a1,..., a9 be non-zero integers and n any integer. Suppose that a1 + ... + a9 = n (mod 2) and (ai, aj) = 1 for 1 <= i < j <= 9. We will prove that (i) if not all of the aj's are of the same sign, then the cubic diagonal equation a1p1^3…
