In this paper, we consider some hybrid Diophantine equations of addition and multiplication. We first improve a result on new Hilbert-Waring problem. Then we consider the equation \begin{equation} \begin{cases} A+B=C ABC=D^n \end{cases}…

The main result of the present article is a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for sufficiently large prime exponents $p$ with $p \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$ over certain number fields. A particular case of these fields are the maximal real subfields of…

Assuming two deep but standard conjectures from the Langlands Programme, we prove that the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem holds for imaginary quadratic fields Q(\sqrt{-d}) with -d=2, 3 mod 4. For a general number field K, again assuming…

We study the Generalized Fermat Equation $x^2 + y^3 = z^p$, to be solved in coprime integers, where $p \ge 7$ is prime. Using modularity and level lowering techniques, the problem can be reduced to the determination of the sets of rational…

Fermat's statement is equivalent to say that if $x$, $y$, $z$, $n$ are integers and $n>2$, then $z^{n}\gtrless x^{n}+y^{n}$. This is proved with the aid of numbers $\lambda $'s, of the form $\lambda =z/\rho $, with $1<\rho<z$, named…

We give a method to solve generalized Fermat equations of type $x^4 + y^4 = q z^p$, for some prime values of $q$ and every prime $p$ bigger than 13. We illustrate the method by proving that there are no solutions for $q= 73, 89$ and 113.

Let $K$ be a totally real number field of odd degree. Let $l \geq 5$ be a prime with $l \nmid [K:\mathbb{Q}]$ and $\gcd(\frac{l-1}{2}, [K:\mathbb{Q}])=1$. We prove that if $2$ is inert in $K$, $l$ is non-Wieferich, i.e., $2^{l-1} \not\equiv…

We show that the existence of a non-trivial solution of $x^n+y^n=p^n$, with $p$ a prime number, is equivalent to the existence of a solution of a certain (over-determined) system of $(n-1)$-recursion relations ("zipper" equations) in…
