We show that for each n-tuple of positive rational integers (a_1,..,a_n) there are sets of primes S of arbitrarily large cardinality s such that the solutions of the equation a_1x_1+...+a_nx_n=1 with the x_i all S-units are not contained in…

We reduce the principal problem of Additive Number Theory of whether an infinite sequence of integers constitutes a finite basis for the integers to a Diophantine problem involving the difference set of the sequence, by proving a formula…

Mills proved that there exists a real constant $A>1$ such that for all $n\in \mathbb{N}$ the values $\lfloor A^{3^n}\rfloor$ are prime numbers. No explicit value of $A$ is known, but assuming the Riemann hypothesis one can choose $A=…

We fix a gap in our proof of an upper bound for the number of positive integers $n\le x$ for which the Euler function $\varphi(n)$ has all prime factors at most $y$. While doing this we obtain a stronger, likely best-possible result.

Let $\Bbb Z$ and $\Bbb N$ be the set of integers and the set of positive integers, respectively. For $a,b,c,d,n\in\Bbb N$ let $N(a,b,c,d;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $ax^2+by^2+cz^2+dw^2$, and let $t(a,b,c,d;n)$ be the…

Let $f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ be a regular indefinite integral quadratic form with $n\ge 9$, and let $t$ be an integer. It is established that $f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)=t$ has solutions in prime variables if there are no local obstructions.

Let $\beta>1$ be fixed. We consider the $(\frak{b, d})$ numeration system, where the base ${\frak b}=(b_k)_{k\geq 0}$ is a sequence of positive real numbers satisfying $\lim_{k\rightarrow \infty}b_{k+1}/b_k=\beta$, and the set of digits…

For any given positive definite binary quadratic form $Q$ with integer coefficients, we establish two results on Diophantine approximation with integers represented by $Q$. Firstly, we show that for every irrational number $\alpha$, there…

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…

In this paper we consider the equation $[p^{c}] + [m^{c}] = N$, where $N$ is a sufficiently large integer, and prove that if $1 < c < \frac{29}{28}$, then it has a solution in a prime $p$ and an almost prime $m$ with at most $\left[…

In an earlier paper, Tatong and Suvarnamani explores the Diophantine equation $p^x + p^y = z^2$ for a prime number $p$. In that paper they find some solutions to the equation for $p=2, 3$. In this paper, we look at a general version of this…

Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be fixed coprime positive integers with $\min\{a,b,c\}>1$. In this survey, we consider some unsolved problems and related works concerning the positive integer solutions $(x,y,z)$ of the ternary purely exponential…

Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…

Let $k$ be a positive integer, and let $a,b$ be coprime positive integers with $\min\{a,b\}>1$. In this paper, using a combination of some elementary number theory techniques with classical results on the Nagell-Ljunggren equation, the…

We study some divisibility properties of multiperfect numbers. Our main result is: if $N=p_1^{\alpha_1}... p_s^{\alpha_s} q_1^{2\beta_1}... q_t^{2\beta_t}$ with $\beta_1, ..., \beta_t$ in some finite set S satisfies…

Mills showed that there exists a constant $A$ such that $\lfloor{A^{3^n}}\rfloor$ is prime for every positive integer $n$. Kuipers and Ansari generalized this result to $\lfloor{A^{c^n}}\rfloor$ where $c\in\mathbb{R}$ and $c\geq 2.106$. The…

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}…

In the present paper we prove that every sufficiently large odd integer $N$ can be represented in the form \begin{equation*} N=p_1+p_2+p_3\,, \end{equation*} where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are primes, such that $p_1=x^2 + y^2 +1$, $p_2=[n^c]$.

The investigation of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the fundamental problems in number theory and especially, finding blocks of distinct primes has gained a lot of attention in recent years. In this context, we prove the…

We prove that if $\lambda_1$, $\lambda_2$, $\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ are non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign, $\lambda_1 / \lambda_2$ is irrational, and $\varpi$ is any real number then, for any $\eps > 0$ the inequality $…
