Using modularity, level lowering, and explicit computations with Hilbert modular forms, Galois representations and ray class groups, we show that for $3 \le d \le 23$ squarefree, $d \ne 5$, $17$, the Fermat equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no…

In this paper, we begin the study of the Fermat equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ over real biquadratic fields. In particular, we prove that there are no non-trivial solutions to the Fermat equation over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3})$ for $n\geq 4$.

We solve the diophantine equations x^4 + d y^2 = z^p for d=2 and d=3 and any prime p>349 and p>131 respectively. The method consists in generalizing the ideas applied by Frey, Ribet and Wiles in the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem, and by…

Recent results of Freitas, Kraus, Sengun and Siksek give sufficient criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over various number fields. In this paper, we prove asymptotic results about the solutions of the Diophantine…

Fermat's Last theorem (FLT) famously states that the equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no solution in positive integers $x, y, z$ for any integer exponent $n>2$. But does this theorem have a quantitative version? Upon initial investigation we…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field. For all prime number $p\geq 5$, let us denote by $F_p$ the Fermat curve of equation $x^p+y^p+z^p=0$. Under the assumption that $2$ is totally ramified in $K$, we establish some results about the set…

It is shown that the quartic Fermat equation $x^4 +y^4=1$ has nontrivial integral solutions in the Hilbert class field $\Sigma$ of any quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ whose discriminant satisfies $-d \equiv 1$ (mod 8). A corollary…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. Using modular arguments, we give an easy testable condition which allows often to prove Fermat's Last Theorem over the quadratic field ${\bf Q}(\sqrt{5})$ for the exponent $p$. It is related to the Wendt's…

We give sufficient conditions to determine the existence of nontrivial solutions to the Fermat equation $x^3+y^3=kz^3$ over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ by constructing a relationship with the points on the elliptic curve $y^2=x^3-432d^3k^2$ over…

Recent work of Freitas and Siksek showed that an asymptotic version of Fermat's Last Theorem holds for many totally real fields. Later this result was extended by Deconinck to generalized Fermat equations of the form $Ax^p +By^p +Cz^p = 0$,…
