We study the problem of determining, given an integer $k$, the rational solutions to $C_{k} : x^{3}z + x^{2} y^{2} + y^{3}z = kz^{4}$. For $k \ne 0$, the curve $C_{k}$ has genus $3$ and there are maps from $C_{k}$ to three elliptic curves…

We deeply investigate the Diophantine equation $cx^2+d^{2m+1}=2y^n$ in integers $x, y\geq 1, m\geq 0$ and $n\geq 3$, where $c$ and $d$ are given coprime positive integers such that $cd\not\equiv 3 \pmod 4$. We first solve this equation for…
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 $gcd(x,y)=1$.
In this paper we first review the history of Hilbert's Tenth Problem, and then study mixed quantifier prefixes over Diophantine equations with integer variables. For example, we prove that $\forall^2\exists^4$ over $\mathbb Z$ is…
In this paper, we sharpen earlier work of the first author, Luca and Mulholland, showing that the Diophantine equation $$ A^3+B^3 = q^\alpha C^p, \, \, ABC \neq 0, \, \, \gcd (A,B) =1, $$ has, for "most" primes $q$ and suitably large prime…
For a positive proportion of primes $p$ and $q$, we prove that $\mathbb{Z}$ is Diophantine in the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p},\sqrt{-q})$. This provides a new and explicit infinite family of number fields $K$ such that…
For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(L_{n}^{(k)})_{n}$ be the $k-$generalized Lucas sequence which starts with $0,\ldots,0,2,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the integers…
