Let $n$ be a cubefree natural number and $p\geq 5$ be a prime number. Assume that $n$ is not expressible as a sum of the form $x^3+y^3$, where $x,y\in \mathbb{Q}$. In this note, we study the solutions (or lack thereof) to the equation…

A series of recent articles has shown that there exist only three monogenic cyclic quartic trinomials in ${\mathbb Z}[x]$, and they are all of the form $x^4+bx^2+d$. In this article, we conduct an analogous investigation for cubic…
Theorem. An irreducible cubic polynomial with rational coefficients has a root in a one step radical extension of Q if and only if the discriminate is a square of a rational number. Theorem. An irreducible polynomial x^4+px^2+qx+s with…
We determine the rational integers x,y,z such that x^3+y^9=z^2 and gcd(x,y,z)=1. First we determine a finite set of curves of genus 10 such that any primitive solution to x^3+y^9=z^2 corresponds to a rational point on one of those curves.…
Given a quintic number field $K/\mathbb{Q}$, we study the set of irreducible trinomials, polynomials of the form $x^{5} + ax + b$, that have a root in $K$. We show that there is a genus four curve $C_{K}$ whose rational points are in…
We examine what integers are representable as sums of three cubes. We also provide formulas for the number of representations of $x^3+y^3+z^3=n$ under the condition $x+y+z=t$. Also we show how the problem of three cubes is related to…
In this note, we use integral binary cubic forms to study the rational cube sum problem. We prove (unconditionally) that for any positive integer $d$, infinitely many primes in each of the residue classes $ 1 \pmod {9d}$ as well as $ -1…
Let $p$ be a prime greater than $3$ and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer. In this paper we try to determine $\sum_{k=1}^{[p/3]}\binom{3k}ka^k\pmod p$, and real the connection between cubic congruences and the sum…
We consider cubic polynomials f(z)=z^3+az+b defined over the function field C(L), with a marked point of period N and multiplier L. In the case N=1, there are infinitely many such objects, and in the case N>2, only finitely many. The case…
In this note we present a construction of an infinite family of diagonal quintic threefolds defined over $\Q$ each containing infinitely many rational points. As an application, we prove that there are infinitely many quadruples $B=(B_{0},…
In this article, we determine all intermediate modular curves $X_\Delta(N)$ that admit infinitely many cubic points over the rational field $\mathbb{Q}$.
We study the problem of the existence of arithmetic progressions of three cubes over quadratic number fields Q(sqrt(D)), where D is a squarefree integer. For this purpose, we give a characterization in terms of Q(sqrt(D))-rational points on…
We study the equation $(x-4r)^3 + (x-3r)^3 + (x-2r)^3+(x-r)^3 + x^3 + (x+r)^3+(x+2r)^3 + (x+3r)^3 + (x+4r)^3 = y^p$, which is a natural continuation of previous works carried out by A. Arg\'{a}ez-Garc\'{i}a and the fourth author (perfect…

For an odd positive integer $n\ge 5$, assuming the truth of the $abc$ conjecture, we show that for a positive proportion of pairs $(a,b)$ of integers the trinomials of the form $t^n+at+b (a,b\in \mathbb Z)$ are irreducible and their…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ described by $y^2= x^3+ Kx+ L$ where $K, L \in \mathbb{Q}$. A set of rational points $(x_i,y_i) \in E(\mathbb{Q})$ for $i=1, 2, \cdots, k$, is said to be a sequence of consecutive cubes on $E$…
We consider the family of dynamical modular curves associated to quadratic polynomial maps and determine precisely which of these curves have infinitely many cubic points. We use this to prove a classification statement on preperiodic…
A nonzero rational number is called a cube sum if it is of form $a^3+b^3$ with $a,b\in \mathbb{Q}^\times$. In this paper, we prove that for any odd integer $k\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many cube-free odd integers $n$ with exactly $k$…
