Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be real numbers such that $1$, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. A classical result of Dirichlet asserts that there are infinitely many triples of integers $(x_0,x_1,x_2)$ such that…

Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…

We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…

We study the exponential Diophantine equation $x^2+p^mq^n=2y^p$ in positive integers $x,y,m,n$, and odd primes $p$ and $q$ using primitive divisors of Lehmer sequences in combination with elementary number theory. We discuss the solvability…

Let $n$ be a non-negative integer and put $p_{n}(x)=\prod_{i=0}^{n}(x+i)$. In the first part of the paper, for given $n$, we study the existence of integer solutions of the Diophantine equation $$ y^m=p_{n}(x)+\sum_{i=1}^{k}p_{a_{i}}(x), $$…

In this paper, we give all the solutions of the Diophantine equation x^2+7^{alpha}.11^{beta}=y^n, in nonnegative integers x, y, n>=3 with x and y coprime, except for the case when alpha.x is odd and beta is even.

A famous problem posed by Diophantus was to find sets of distinct positive rational numbers such that the product of any two is one less than a rational square. Some sets of six such numbers are presented and the computational algorithm…

We elaborate on a problem raised by Schmidt in 1967 which generalizes the theory of classical Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\R^n$. We consider Diophantine exponents for linear subspaces of $\R^n$ which generalize the…

In this paper we present a new approach to prove effective results in Diophantine approximation. We then use it to prove an effective theorem on the simultaneous approximation of two algebraic numbers satisfying an algebraic equation with…

We investigate approximation to a given real number by algebraic numbers and algebraic integers of prescribed degree. We deal with both best and uniform approximation, and highlight the similarities and differences compared with the…

In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation \begin{align*}b^k +\left(a+b\right)^k &+ \cdots + \left(a\left(x-1\right) + b\right)^k=\\ &=d^l + \left(c+d\right)^l + \cdots + \left(c\left(y-1\right) + d\right)^l, \end{align*} where…

We establish effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous quadratic forms. We prove such results for fixed shift vectors and generic quadratic forms. When the shift is rational we prove a counting result which…

Let $\al$ be an irrational and $\varphi: \N \rightarrow \R^+$ be a function decreasing to zero. For any $\al$ with a given Diophantine type, we show some sharp estimations for the Hausdorff dimension of the set [E_{\varphi}(\al):={y\in \R:…

In their celebrated paper "On Siegel's Lemma", Bombieri and Vaaler found an upper bound on the height of integer solutions of systems of linear Diophantine equations. Calculating the bound directly, however, requires exponential time. In…

We reduce the principal problem of Additive Number Theory of whether an infinite sequence of integers constitutes a finite basis for the integers to a Diophantine problem involving the difference set of the sequence, by proving a formula…

We study the ``imaginary" binary quadratic form equations ax^2+bxy+cy^2+g=0 over k[t] in rational function fields, showing that a condition with respect to the Artin reciprocity map, is the only obstruction to the local-global principle for…

We are motivated by a result of Alzer and Luca who presented all the integer solutions to the relations $(k!)^n-k^n=(n!)^k-n^k$ and $(k!)^n+k^n=(n!)^k+n^k$. We modify the equations by considering the double factorial instead and present all…

The number of lattice points in $d$-dimensional hyperbolic or elliptic shells $\{m : a<Q[m]<b\}$, which are restricted to rescaled and growing domains $r\;\Omega$, is approximated by the volume. An effective error bound of order…

A brief survey of some basic ideas of the so-called Idempotent Mathematics is presented; an "idempotent" version of the representation theory is discussed. The Idempotent Mathematics can be treated as a result of a dequantization of the…

We prove that there exist infinitely many quartic rational Diophantine quadruples, that is, sets of four pairwise distinct nonzero rational numbers whose pairwise products increased by 1 are fourth powers in Q. To the best of our knowledge,…
