Let $a,b,c$ be relatively prime positive integers such that $a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}.$ In 1956, Je\'{s}manowicz conjectured that for any positive integer $n$, the only solution of $(an)^{x}+(bn)^{y}=(cn)^{z}$ in positive integers is…

First, we consider the equation $ax^2 - by^2 + c = 0$, with $a,b \in N*$ and $c \in Z*$, which is a generalization of Pell's equation. Here, we show that: if this equation has an integer solution and $ab$ is not a perfect square, then it…

The local logarithmic conformal field theory corresponding to the triplet algebra at c=-2 is constructed. The constraints of locality and crossing symmetry are explored in detail, and a consistent set of amplitudes is found. The spectrum of…

We provide several extensions of the modular method which were motivated by the problem of completing previous work to prove that, for any integer $n \geq 2$, the equation \[ x^{13} + y^{13} = 3 z^n \] has no non-trivial solutions. In…

We study an asymptotic formula for counting integral points over an equation defined by a non-degenerated indefinite integral ternary quadratic form $f$ representing a non-zero integer $a$ such that $-a\cdot det(f)$ is square over a number…

We study metrics of constant $Q$-curvature in the Euclidean space with a prescribed singularity at the origin, namely solutions to the equation $$(-\Delta)^\frac{n}{2}w=e^{nw}-c\delta_{0} \text{ on } \mathbb R^n,$$ under a finite volume…

For any $n\in\mathbb{N}=\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ and $b,c\in\mathbb{Z}$, the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a squarefree integer $d$ for there to be non-trivial solutions to $x^{3} + y^{3} = z^{3}$ in $\Q(\sqrt{d})$, conditional on the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. These conditions are…

In this paper we study Newton's method for solving generalized equations in Banach spaces. We show that under strong regularity of the generalized equation, the method is locally convergent to a solution with superlinear/quadratic rate. The…

Fermat's Last theorem (FLT) famously states that the equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no solution in positive integers $x, y, z$ for any integer exponent $n>2$. But does this theorem have a quantitative version? Upon initial investigation we…

Let $K = \mathbb{F}_p(z_1, \ldots, z_r)$ be a finitely generated field over $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this article we study the generalized Catalan equation $ax^m + by^n = 1$ in $x, y \in K$ and integers $m, n > 1$ coprime with $p$. Our main…

We discuss a clean level lowering theorem modulo prime powers for weight $2$ cusp forms. Furthermore, we illustrate how this can be used to completely solve certain twisted Fermat equations $ax^n+by^n+cz^n=0$.

An integer $n\ge 1$ is said to be practical if every natural number $ m \le n$ can be expressed as a sum of distinct positive divisors of $n$. The number of practical numbers up to $x$ is asymptotic to $c x/\log x$, where $c$ is a constant.…

We present several formulae for the large $t$ asymptotics of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, $s=\sigma+i t$, $0\leq \sigma \leq 1$, $t>0$, which are valid to all orders. A particular case of these results coincides with the classical…
