Wiles' proof of Fermat's last theorem initiated a powerful new approach towards the resolution of certain Diophantine equations over $\mathbb{Q}$. Numerous novel obstacles arise when extending this approach to the resolution of Diophantine…

We give a cyclotomic proof of the fact that the equation $\frac{x^p + y^p}{x+y} = p^e z^q$ has no solutions in coprime integers $x,y,z$ and $p > 3; q$, a pair of distinct odd primes.

We prove that the equation ${ (x - y)^4 + x^4 + (x + y)^4 = z^n }$ has no integer solutions ${ x, y, z}$ with ${ \gcd(x, y) = 1 }$ for all integers ${ n > 1 }$. We mainly use a modular approach with two Frey ${ \mathbb{Q} }$-curves defined…

Let $C$ be a curve defined over a number field $K$. A point $P\in C(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ is called $K$-quadratic if $[K(P):K]=2$. Let $K$ be a number field such that the rank of the elliptic curves $E_1:\,y^2= x^3 + 4x$ and $E_2:\,y^2=…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field. For all prime number $p\geq 5$, let us denote by $F_p$ the Fermat curve of equation $x^p+y^p+z^p=0$. Under the assumption that $2$ is totally ramified in $K$, we establish some results about the set…

Let $p \ge 5$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{Q}_{n,p}$ denote the $n$-th layer of the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We show that $\mathbb{Q}_{n,p}$ has no exceptional units. We use this to prove the effective asymptotic…

We prove that the Fermat-type equation $x^3 + y^3 = z^p$ has no solutions $(a,b,c)$ satisfying $abc \ne 0$ and $\gcd(a,b,c)=1$ when $-3$ is not a square mod~$p$. This improves to approximately $0.844$ the Dirichlet density of the set of…

In this paper, we prove that the only primitive solutions of the equation $a^2+3b^6=c^n$ for $n\geq 3$ are $(a,b,c,n)=(\pm 47,\pm 2,\pm 7,4)$. Our proof is based on the modularity of Galois representations of $\mathbb Q$-curves and the work…

We present an elementary proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. No ancillary results are used, not even the most basic ones. The proof directly leads to a contradiction of the Fermat equation in the set of integers.

By means of elementary conditions on coefficients, we isolate a large class of Fermat-like Diophantine equations that are not partition regular, the simplest examples being $x^n+y^m=z^k$ with $k\notin\{n,m\}$.

We show that an elementary proof of Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) exists. Our paper also extends the scope of FLT from integers to all rational numbers.

This article deals with a conjecture, introduced in [GQ] (hereinafter $SFLT2$), which generalizes the second case of Fermat's Last Theorem: {\it Let $p>3$ be a prime. The diophantine equation $\frac{u^p+v^p}{u+v}=w_1^p$ with $u,v,u+v,…
