Based on the MRDP theorem concerning the Hilbert tenth problem, there is a corresponding Diophantine equation called proof equation for every formula of the First-order Peano Arithmetic (PA). A formula is provable in PA, if and only if the…

We express the solutions to quadratic equations with two variables in the ring of integers using EDT0L languages. We use this to show that EDT0L languages can be used to describe the solutions to one-variable equations in the Heisenberg…

A rational Diophantine $m$-tuple is a set $\{a_1,\ldots,a_m\}$ of distinct nonzero rational numbers such that $a_i a_j+1$ is a square for all $1\leq i < j\leq m$. Similarly, we may ask when $a_ia_j+1$ is a $k$-th power. Here, we study the…

We prove that if $\lambda_1$, $\lambda_2$, $\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ are non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign, $\lambda_1 / \lambda_2$ is irrational, and $\varpi$ is any real number then, for any $\eps > 0$ the inequality $…

In this paper, first, we prove that the Diophantine system \[f(z)=f(x)+f(y)=f(u)-f(v)=f(p)f(q)\] has infinitely many integer solutions for $f(X)=X(X+a)$ with nonzero integers $a\equiv 0,1,4\pmod{5}$. Second, we show that the above…
