We consider cubic forms $\phi_{a,b}(x,y,z) = ax^3 + by^3 - z^3$ with coefficients $a,b \in \mathbb{Z}$. We give an asymptotic formula for how many of these forms are locally soluble everywhere, i.e. we give an asymptotic formula for the…

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$. We study the generalized Fermat equation \[x^{13}+y^{13}=z^n, \quad x,y,z \in \mathbb{Z}, \quad \gcd(x,y,z)=1.\] Using a combination of techniques, including the modular method, classical descent, unit…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field and $\mathcal{O}_K$ be the ring of integers of $K$. In this article, we study the asymptotic solutions of the generalized Fermat equation $Ax^p+By^p+Cz^p=0$ over $K$ with prime exponent $p$, where…

The primary aim of this paper is to study the generalized Fermat equation \[ x^2+y^{2n} = z^{3p} \] in coprime integers $x$, $y$, and $z$, where $n \geq 2$ and $p$ is a fixed prime. Using modularity results over totally real fields and the…

Generalised Fermat equation (GFE) is the equation of the form $ax^p+by^q=cz^r$, where $a,b,c,p,q,r$ are positive integers. If $1/p+1/q+1/r<1$, GFE is known to have at most finitely many primitive integer solutions $(x,y,z)$. A large body of…

We study the Generalized Fermat Equation $x^2 + y^3 = z^p$, to be solved in coprime integers, where $p \ge 7$ is prime. Using modularity and level lowering techniques, the problem can be reduced to the determination of the sets of rational…

In this article, we study the asymptotic solutions of the generalized Fermat-type equation of signature $(p,p,3)$ over totally real number fields $K$, i.e., $Ax^p+By^p=Cz^3$ with prime exponent $p$ and $A,B,C \in \mathcal{O}_K \setminus…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field of odd degree. Let $l \geq 5$ be a prime with $l \nmid [K:\mathbb{Q}]$ and $\gcd(\frac{l-1}{2}, [K:\mathbb{Q}])=1$. We prove that if $2$ is inert in $K$, $l$ is non-Wieferich, i.e., $2^{l-1} \not\equiv…

We consider the generalized Fermat equation (*) $x^2 + y^3 = z^{25}$. Using the known parameterization of the primitive integral solutions to $x^2 + y^3 = z^5$ (due to Edwards), we reduce the solution of (*) to the solution of five specific…

In this paper, we study the integer solutions of a family of Fermat-type equations of signature $(2, 2n, n)$, $Cx^2 + q^ky^{2n} = z^n$. We provide an algorithmically testable set of conditions which, if satisfied, imply the existence of a…

Let F be a totally real number field of odd degree. We prove several purely local criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over F, and also for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation over F. For example, if 2…

For univalent and normalized functions $f$ the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n(f)$ are determined by the formula $\log(f(z)/z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}2\gamma_n(f)z^n$. In the paper \cite{Pon} the authors posed the conjecture that a locally…

This paper is concerned with the study of a nonlinear non-local equation that has a commutator structure. The equation reads $\partial_t u-F(u) (-\Delta)^{s/2} u+(-\Delta)^{s/2} (uF(u))=0$, $x\in \mathbb{T}^d$, with s $\in$ (0, 1]. We are…
