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 give a cyclotomic proof of the fact that the equation $\frac{x^p + y^p}{x+y} = p^e z^p$ has no solutions in coprime integers $x,y,z$ and $p > 3$, a prime. This implies in particular Fermat's Last Theorem.
This note proves two theorems regarding Fermat-type equation $x^r + y^r = dz^p$ where $r \geq 5$ is a prime. Our main result shows that, for infinitely many integers~$d$, the previous equation has no non-trivial primitive solutions such…
We give a method to solve generalized Fermat equations of type $x^4 + y^4 = q z^p$, for some prime values of $q$ and every prime $p$ bigger than 13. We illustrate the method by proving that there are no solutions for $q= 73, 89$ and 113.
Within the scope of elementary number theory, we prove that, as the main result, if $1 \leq x < y < z$ are integers such that at least one of $y, z, x+y$ is prime then $x^{n}+y^{n} \neq z^{n}$ for every odd integer $n \geq 3$. This result…
Assuming a deep but standard conjecture in the Langlands programme, we prove Fermat's Last Theorem over $\mathbb Q(i)$. Under the same assumption, we also prove that, for all prime exponents $p \geq 5$, Fermat's equation $a^p+b^p+c^p=0$…
We discuss the equation $a^p + 2^\a b^p + c^p =0$ in which $a$, $b$, and $c$ are non-zero relatively prime integers, $p$ is an odd prime number, and $\a$ is a positive integer. The technique used to prove Fermat's Last Theorem shows that…
Fermat's Last theorem (FLT) famously states that the equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no solution in positive integers $x, y, z$ for any integer exponent $n>2$. But does this theorem have a quantitative version? Upon initial investigation we…
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…
Using modularity, level lowering, and explicit computations with Hilbert modular forms, Galois representations and ray class groups, we show that for $3 \le d \le 23$ squarefree, $d \ne 5$, $17$, the Fermat equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no…
A elementary proof of Fermat"s Last Theorem[1] is presented for the case of even exponents n=2q, where q is any integer, including 2. For even exponents, the proof of the theorem reduces to showing that solutions of the Pythagorean equation…
The primary aim of this paper is to study the generalized Fermat equation \[ x^2+y^{2n} = z^{3p} \] in coprime integers $x$, $y$, and $z$, where $n \geq 2$ and $p$ is a fixed prime. Using modularity results over totally real fields and the…
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,…
Let $K$ be a totally real number field of odd degree. Let $l \geq 5$ be a prime with $l \nmid [K:\mathbb{Q}]$ and $\gcd(\frac{l-1}{2}, [K:\mathbb{Q}])=1$. We prove that if $2$ is inert in $K$, $l$ is non-Wieferich, i.e., $2^{l-1} \not\equiv…
In a recent paper, Freitas and Siksek proved an asypmtotic version of Fermat's Last Theorem for many totally real fields. We prove an extension of their result to generalized Fermat equations of the form $A x^p+B y^p+ C z^p=0$, where $A$,…
By studying the n-dimensional cube, the author finds a new way, and use it to proves that the indefinite equation $x^n+y^n=z^n(n=>3)$ has no any solutions of positive integers.
In the present article, we extend previous results of the author and we show that when $K$ is any quadratic imaginary field of class number one, Fermat's equation $a^p+b^p+c^p=0$ does not have integral coprime solutions $a,b,c \in K…
