We solve the diophantine equations x^4 + d y^2 = z^p for d=2 and d=3 and any prime p>349 and p>131 respectively. The method consists in generalizing the ideas applied by Frey, Ribet and Wiles in the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem, and by…

In 2000, Darmon described a program to study the generalized Fermat equation using modularity of abelian varieties of $\mathrm{GL}_2$-type over totally real fields. The original approach was based on hard open conjectures, which have made…
This paper develops a framework of algebra whereby every Diophantine equation is made quickly accessible by a study of the corresponding row entries in an array of numbers which we call the Newtonian triangles. We then apply this framework…
This paper initiates a novel research direction in the theory of Diophantine equations: define an appropriate version of the equation's size, order all polynomial Diophantine equations starting from the smallest ones, and then solve the…
The main result of the present article is a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for sufficiently large prime exponents $p$ with $p \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$ over certain number fields. A particular case of these fields are the maximal real subfields of…
This is the first in a series of papers whereby we combine the classical approach to exponential Diophantine equations (linear forms in logarithms, Thue equations, etc.) with a modular approach based on some of the ideas of the proof of…
Recent results of Freitas, Kraus, Sengun and Siksek, give sufficient criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over a specific number field. Those works in turn build on many deep theorems in arithmetic geometry. In this…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^t$ elements. In this paper, we study the number of solutions of equations of the form $a_1 x_1^{d_1}+\dots+a_s x_s^{d_s}=b$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. A classic well-konwn result from Weil yields a…
We give solutions of a Diophantine equation containing factorials, which can be written as a cubic form, or as a sum of binomial coefficients. We also give some solutions to higher degree forms and relate some solutions to an unsolvable…
We propose a new approach at Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) solution: for each FLT equation we associate a polynomial of the same degree. The study of the roots of the polynomial allows us to investigate the FLT validity. This technique,…
Using the modular method, we study solutions to the Diophantine equation $$Aa^p+Bb^p=Cc^2$$ over number fields. We first prove an asymptotic result for general number fields satisfying an appropriate $S$-unit condition by assuming some…

Consider a form $g(x_1,...,x_s)$ of degree $d$, having coefficients in the completion $F_q((1/t))$ of the field of fractions $F_q(t)$ associated to the finite field $F_q$. We establish that whenever $s>d^2$, then the form $g$ takes…
The distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo one, where $p$ runs over the rational primes and $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real, has received a lot of attention. It is natural to ask for which exponents $\nu>0$ one can establish the infinitude…
We formulate an exponential Diophantine equation, which is is some sense one order higher that Fermat's Last Theorem. We also give three examples of solutions to this exponential Diophantine equation and formulate a conjecture.
Fermat Last Theorem, which inspired mathematicians during 300 years, is proved by Andrew Wiles. Even among mathematicians there is a narrow circle of specialists, who can read this proof and understand all details. Is it a reason for…
