The objective of the paper is to determine the complete solutions for the Diophantine equation $x^2 + 3^{\alpha}113^{\beta} = y^{\mathfrak{n}}$ in positive integers $x$ and $y$ (where $x, y \geq 1$), non-negative exponents $\alpha$ and…

We give a survey on some results covering the last 60 years concerning Je\'smanowicz' conjecture. Moreover, we conclude the survey with a new result by showing that the special Diophantine equation $$(20k)^x+(99k)^y=(101k)^z$$ has no…

In this paper we extend a result of Hirata-Kohno, Laishram, Shorey and Tijdeman on the Diophantine equation $n(n+d)...(n+(k-1)d)=by^2,$ where $n,d,k\geq 2$ and $y$ are positive integers such that $\gcd(n,d)=1.$

It is important in drawing techniques to find combinations of two straight lines and their angle bisectors whose slopes are all rational numbers. This problem is reduced to solving the Diophantine equation $(a-c)^2(b^2+1) = (b-c)^2(a^2+1).$…

We establish Diophantine inequalities for the fractional parts of generalized polynomials $f$, in particular for sequences $\nu(n)=\lfloor n^c\rfloor+n^k$ with $c>1$ a non-integral real number and $k\in\mathbb{N}$, as well as for $\nu(p)$…

This paper collects polynomial Diophantine equations that are simple to state but apparently difficult to solve.

The $3x+1$ Problem asks if whether for every natural number $n$, there exists a finite number of iterations of the piecewise function $$f(2n)=n, \quad f(2n-1)=6n-2, $$ with an iterate equal to the number $1$, or in other words, every…

In this short note we study the existence and number of solutions in the set of integers ($Z$) and in the set of natural numbers ($N$) of Diopahntine Equations of second degree with two variables of the general form $ax^2-by^2=c$.

We prove that for given integers b and c, the diophantine equation x^2+bx+c=y^2, has finitely many integer solutions(i.e. pairs in ZxZ),in fact an even number of such solutions(including the zero or no solutions case).We also offer an…

The Diophantine equation (x^n-1)/(x-1)=y^q has four known solutions in integers x, y, q and n with |x|, |y|, q > 1 and n > 2. Whilst we expect that there are, in fact, no more solutions, such a result is well beyond current technology. In…
