In this paper, we find a bound for the number of the positive solutions to the titled equation, improving a result of Togb\'e. As a consequence, we prove a conjecture of Togb\'e in a few cases.

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…

The representation of any integer as the sum of two cubes to a fixed modulus is always possible if and only if the modulus is not divisible by seven or nine. For a positive non-prime integer N there is given an inductive way to find its…

Let $a,b,c$ be positive integers. It is known that there are infinitely many positive integers not representated by $ax^2+by^2+cz^2$ with $x,y,z\in\mathbb Z$. In contrast, we conjecture that any natural number is represented by $\lfloor…

This note investigates the prime values of the polynomial $f(t)=qt^2+a$ for any fixed pair of relatively prime integers $ a\geq 1$ and $ q\geq 1$ of opposite parity. For a large number $x\geq1$, an asymptotic result of the form $\sum_{n\leq…

The number of primes of a kind x^2+1 is infinite.

Let $f(n)=\min_{p} |n-p|$, where $p$ is a prime. We show that there is a positive constant $\delta$ such that for any large integer $N$ there exist two positive integers $n_1$ and $n_2$ such that $N=n_1 + n_2$ and $f(n_i)\gg \ln N (\ln\ln…

By an $abc$ triple, we mean a triple $(a,b,c)$ of relatively prime positive integers $a,b,$ and $c$ such that $a+b=c$ and $\operatorname{rad}(abc)<c$, where $\operatorname{rad}(n)$ denotes the product of the distinct prime factors of $n$.…

In the present paper we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $x^2+y^2+1$, $x^2+y^2+2$. We also give an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of positive integers $x, y \leq H$ such that…

We show that there exist infinite sets $A = \{a_1,a_2,\dots\}$ and $B = \{b_1,b_2,\dots\}$ of natural numbers such that $a_i+b_j$ is prime whenever $1 \leq i < j$.

Let $b$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$. For any integer $n\in \left[b^{\lambda-1}, b^{\lambda}-1\right]$, we denote by $R_\lambda (n)$ the reverse of $n$ in base $b$, obtained by reversing the order of the digits of $n$. We…

In a paper published by this author in www.academia.edu(see reference[3]), it was established that there exist no three positive integers which are consecutive terms of an arithmetic progression; and whose sum of squares is a perfect or…

We obtain best possible results for the number of coprime positive integer solutions of the equation in the title when $a$ is a positive integer, $b=p^{m}$, $2p^{m}$ or $4p^{m}$, where $m$ is a non-negative integer, $p$ is prime, $\gcd…

In this paper we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are infinite subsets of positive integers such that every positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=ab$, $a\in A$, $b\in B$, then $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{A(x)B(x)}{x}=\infty $. We…

A nonempty finite set of positive integers A is relatively prime if gcd(A) = 1 and it is relatively prime to n if gcd(A [ fng) = 1. The number of nonempty subsets of A which are relatively prime to n is \Phi(A, n) and the number of such…

A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…

We revisit a work by R. Okazaki and prove that for every cubic binary form F(x, y) with large enough discriminant, the Thue equation |F(x, y)| = 1 has at most 7 solutions in integers x and y.

Let $1<k<7/6$, $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ be non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign such that $\lambda_1/\lambda_2$ is irrational and let $\omega$ be a real number. We prove that the inequality…

Let $b\ge 2$ be a given integer. In this paper, we show that there only finitely many positive integers $d$ which are not squares, such that the Pell equation $X^2-dY^2=1$ has two positive integer solutions $(X,Y)$ with the property that…

We compute all primes up to $6.25\times 10^{28}$ of the form $m^2+1$. Calculations using this list verify, up to our bound, a less famous conjecture of Goldbach. We introduce `Goldbach champions' as part of the verification process and…
