Let $f(x)=x^{2}(x^{2}-1)(x^{2}-2)(x^{2}-3).$ We prove that the Diophantine equation $ f(x)=2f(y)$ has no solutions in positive integers $x$ and $y$, except $(x, y)=(1, 1)$.

A polynomial triangle is an array whose inputs are the coefficients in integral powers of a polynomial. Although polynomial coefficients have appeared in several works, there is no systematic treatise on this topic. In this paper we plan to…
In this paper, we present efficient algorithms for solving the Diophantine equation $f(x, y) = m$ for an arbitrary definite binary quadratic form $f$, given the factorization of $m$. While Cornacchia's algorithm to solve $x^2 + dy^2 = m$ is…

We show that the equation in the title (with $\Phi_m$ the $m$th cyclotomic polynomial) has no integer solution with $n\ge 1$ in the cases $(m,p)=(15,41), (15,5581),(10,271)$. These equations arise in a recent group theoretical investigation…

We answer a question of Samir Siksek, asked at the open problems session of the conference ``Rational Points 2022'', which, in a broader sense, can be viewed as a reverse engineering of Diophantine equations. For any finite set $S$ of…
