We consider the equation $[p_{1}^{c}] + [p_{2}^{c}] + [p_{3}^{c}] = N$, where $N$ is a sufficiently large integer, and prove that if $1 < c < \frac{17}{16}$, then it has a solution in prime numbers $p_{1}$, $p_{2}$, $p_{3}$ such that each…

The title equation, where $p>3$ is a prime number $\not\equiv 7 \pmod 8$, $q$ is an odd prime number and $x,y,n$ are positive integers with $x,y$ relatively prime, is studied. When $p\equiv 3\pmod 8$, we prove (Theorem 2.3) that there are…

In [1] it is shown that the Diophantine equation $(k!)^n+k^n=(n!)^k+n^k$ only has the trivial solution $n=k$, and $(k!)^n-k^n=(n!)^k-n^k$ only has the solutions $n=k$, $(n, k)=(1, 2),$ and $(2, 1)$. In this article we find all solutions of…

The number of solutions to $a^2+b^2=c^2+d^2 \le x$ in integers is a well-known result, while if one restricts all the variables to primes Erdos showed that only the diagonal solutions, namely, the ones with $\{a,b\}=\{c,d\}$ contribute to…

It is shown that Pythagorean triples can be used to generate matrices that have integer eigenvalues for all permutations of their coefficients, via simple formulas. For example, each and every permutation of the $2\times2$ matrix…

Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be fixed coprime positive integers with $\min\{ a,b,c \} >1$. Let $N(a,b,c)$ denote the number of positive integer solutions $(x,y,z)$ of the equation $a^x + b^y = c^z$. We show that if $(a,b,c)$ is a triple of distinct…

Suppose that $x$ is odd, $n\geq7$ and $p\notin\{2,5\}$ are primes. In this paper, we prove that the Diophantine equations $x^{2}\pm5^{\alpha}p^{n}=y^{n}$ have no solutions in positive integers $\alpha,x,y$ with $gcd(x,y)=1$.

The following article summarizes research where theorems and their respective demonstrations are postulated based on quadratic equations with special properties given by the Pythagorean triplets and the Fibonacci sequence given the second…

We show that whenever $\delta>0$, $\eta$ is real and constants $\lambda_i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, there are infinitely many prime triples $p_1,\, p_2,\, p_3$ satisfying the inequality $|\lambda_1p_1 + \lambda_2p_2 +…

In 1998, in the winter issue of the journal Mathematics and Computer education (see [1]), Monte Zerger posed the following problem. He had noticed the Pythagorean triple (216,630,666);(216)^2+(630)^2=(666)^2. Note that 216=6^3 and 666 is…

For $p$ and $q$ any two distinct Fermat or Mersenne primes, $m,n,r$ as positive integers and $\mu = \pm 1$ satisfying any diophantine relation, $\mbox{(i)}\; 2^m + \mu = p^nq^r, \mbox{(ii)} \; 2^mp^n + \mu = q^r \mbox{ or } \mbox{(iii)} \;…

In this article, we study the solutions of certain type over $K$ of the Diophantine equation $x^2= By^p+Cz^p$ with prime exponent $p$, where $B$ is an odd integer and $C$ is either an odd integer or $C=2^r$ for $r \in \mathbb{N}$. Further,…

Let $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}\setminus\mathbb{Q}$ and $\beta\in \mathbb{R}$ be given. Suppose that $a_1,\ldots,a_s$ are distinct positive integers that do not contain a reduced residue system modulo $p^2$ for any prime $p$. We prove that there…

It is conjectured that for any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ all greater than 1 there is at most one solution to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ in positive integers $x,y$ and $z$, except for specific cases. We develop…

The aim of this expository article is twofold. The first is to introduce several polynomials of one variable as well as two variables defined on the positive integers with values as congruent numbers. The second is to present connections…

Given odd, coprime integers $a$, $b$ ($a>0$), we consider the Diophantine equation $ax^2+b^{2l}=4y^n$, $x, y\in\Bbb Z$, $l \in \Bbb N$, $n$ odd prime, $\gcd(x,y)=1$. We completely solve the above Diophantine equation for…

In this paper, we study the diophantine equation ${{\sigma }_{2}}(n)-{{n}^{2}}=An+B$. We prove that except for finitely many computable solutions, all the solutions to this equation with $(A,B)=({{L}_{2m}},F_{2m}^{2}-1)$ are…

Say that $(x, y, z)$ is a positive primitive integral Pythagorean triple if $x, y, z$ are positive integers without common factors satisfying $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$. An old theorem of Berggren gives three integral invertible linear…

This paper proposes an elementary solution to a special case of finding all perfect squares that can be written as sum of consecutive integer cubes. It is shown that there are no non-trivial solutions if the perfect square is a prime power,…

Let $d\ge 2$ and $n\ge d$ with $(d,n)\notin \{(2,2),(3,3)\}$. We consider homogeneous Diophantine equations of degree $d$ in $n+1$ variables and whether they have solutions in the primes. In particular, we show that a certain local-global…
