Let $ \{L_n\}_{n\ge 0} $ be the sequence of Lucas numbers given by $ L_0=2, ~ L_1=1 $ and $ L_{n+2}=L_{n+1}+L_n $ for all $ n\ge 0 $. In the first paper, for an integer $d\geq 2$ which is square-free, we show that there is at most one value…

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…

Our main result states that whenever we have a non-Euclidean norm $\|\cdot\|$ on a two-dimensional vector space $X$, there exists some $x\neq 0$ such that for every $\lambda\neq 1, \lambda>0$, there exist $y, z\in X$ verifying that…

The cardinality of the set of $D\leqslant x$ for which the fundamental solution of the Pell equation $t^2-Du^2=1$ is less than $D^{\frac{1}{2}+\alpha}$ with $\alpha\in[\frac{1}{2},1]$ is studied and certain lower bounds are obtained,…

Let ABC be a triangle with a,b,and c being its three sidelengths. In a 1976 article by Wynne William Wilson in the Mathematical Gazette(see reference[2]), the author showed that angleB is twice angleA, if and only if b^2=a(a+c). We offer…

We study the quadratic integral points-that is, (S-)integral points defined over any extension of degree two of the base field-on a curve defined in P_3 by a system of two Pell equations. Such points belong to three families explicitly…

Let $c$ be a positive odd integer and $R$ a set of $n$ primes coprime with $c$. We consider equations $X + Y = c^z$ in three integer unknowns $X$, $Y$, $z$, where $z > 0$, $Y > X > 0$, and the primes dividing $XY$ are precisely those in…

For all positive non-square integer multiplier k, there is an infinity of multiples of triangular numbers which are also triangular numbers. With a simple change of variables, these triangular numbers can be found using solutions of Pell…

For two relatively prime positive integers $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations $$ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\ \mbox{ and }\ 1 + ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}$$ has a nonnegative…

Let $p\equiv 1\bmod 4$ be a prime number. We use a number field variant of Vinogradov's method to prove density results about the following four arithmetic invariants: (i) $16$-rank of the class group $\mathrm{Cl}(-4p)$ of the imaginary…

Pell-Abel equation is a functional equation of the form P^{2}-DQ^{2} = 1, with a given polynomial D free of squares and unknown polynomials P and Q. We show that the space of Pell-Abel equations with the fixed degrees of D and of a…

We solve Pell's equation in a simple way without continued fractions or irrational numbers, and relate the algorithm to the Stern Brocot tree.

Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\…

We investigate the solvability of the Diophantine equation $x^2-my^2=\pm p$ in integers for certain integer $m$ and prime $p$. Then we apply these results to produce family of maximal real subfield of a cyclotomic field whose class number…

For relatively prime integers $a$ and $b$ both greater than one and odd integer $c$, there are at most two solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ to the equation $a^x + b^y = c^z$. There are an infinite number of $(a,b,c)$ giving exactly…

Two well-studied Diophantine equations are those of Pythagorean triples and elliptic curves, for the first we have a parametrization through rational points on the unit circle, and for the second we have a structure theorem for the group of…

In the classical theory, a famous by-product of the continued fraction expansion of quadratic irrational numbers $\sqrt{D}$ is the solution to Pell's equation for $D$. It is well-known that, once an integer solution to Pell's equation…

In 1826 Abel started the study of the polynomial Pell equation $x^2-g(u)y^2=1$. Its solvability in polynomials $x(u), y(u)$ depends on a certain torsion point on the Jacobian of the hyperelliptic curve $v^2=g(u)$. In this paper we study the…

Let $a,b>0$ be coprime integers. Assuming a conjecture on Hecke eigenvalues along binary cubic forms, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes of the form $ax^2+by^3$ with $x \leq X^{1/2}$ and $y \leq X^{1/3}$. The proof…

We show that there are at most two solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ for positive integers $a$, $b$, and $c$ all greater than one, with just one exceptional case when $\gcd(a,b)=1$, and just one…
