We investigate the power of non-deterministic circuits over restricted sets of base gates. We note that the power of non-deterministic circuits exhibit a dichotomy, in the following sense: For weak enough bases, non-deterministic circuits…
According to Skolem's conjecture, if an exponential Diophantine equation is not solvable, then it is not solvable modulo an appropriately chosen modulus. Besides several concrete equations, the conjecture has only been proved for rather…
An important unsolved problem in Diophantine number theory is to establish a general method to effectively find all solutions to any given $S$-unit equation with at least four terms. Although there are many works contributing to this…
We find all solutions of Diophantine equation x^{2}+11^{2k} = y^{n} where x>=1, y>=1, n>=3 and k is natural number. We give p-adic interpretation of this equation.
We prove that the power word problem for certain metabelian subgroups of $\mathsf{GL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ (including the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups $\mathsf{BS}(1,q) = \langle a,t \mid t a t^{-1} = a^q \rangle$) belongs to the circuit…
The subject matter of this work are the linear, three variable diophantine equation ax+by+cz=d (1), and the diophantine system ax+by+cz=d (2) ex+fy+gz=h with the coefficients a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h being integers. Introductory number theory books,…
Bach et al. [1] recently presented an algorithm for constructing confluent drawings, by leveraging power graph decomposition to generate an auxiliary routing graph. We identify two issues with their method which we call the node split and…
Let L_t denote the t-th Lucas number. We prove that the Diophantine equation L_m^{n+k} + L_m^n = L_r has no solutions in positive integers r, m, n, and k with m >= 2. In the case n = 1, the proof is based on a precise factorization formula…
The Diophantine equation (x^n-1)/(x-1)=y^q has four known solutions in integers x, y, q and n with |x|, |y|, q > 1 and n > 2. Whilst we expect that there are, in fact, no more solutions, such a result is well beyond current technology. In…
We give new evidence that quantum circuits are substantially more powerful than classical circuits. We show, relative to a random oracle, that polynomial-size quantum circuits can sample distributions that subexponential-size classical…
In this paper we determine the perfect powers that are sums of three fifth powers in an arithmetic progression. More precisely, we completely solve the Diophantine equation $$ (x-d)^5 + x^5 + (x + d)^5 = z^n,~n\geq 2, $$ where $d,x,z \in…
The aim of this paper is to prove the possibility of linearization of such equations by means of introduction of new variables. For $n=2$ such a procedure is well known, when new variables are components of spinors and they are widely used…
The elementary theory of bivariate linear Diophantine equations over polynomial rings is used to construct causal lifting factorizations (elementary matrix decompositions) for causal two-channel FIR perfect reconstruction transfer matrices…
We find algebraic conditions on a group equivalent to the position of its Diophantine problem in the Chomsky Hierarchy. In particular, we prove that a finitely generated group has a context-free Diophantine problem if and only if it is…
Given a global field $K$ and a positive integer $n$, we present a diophantine criterion for a polynomial in one variable of degree $n$ over $K$ not to have any root in $K$. This strengthens the known result that the set of non-$n$-th-powers…
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…
The quadruple $(1\,484\,801, 1\,203\,120, 1\,169\,407, 1\,157\,520)$ already known is essentially the only non-trivial solution of the Diophantine equation $x^4 + 2 y^4 = z^4 + 4 w^4$ for $|x|$, $|y|$, $|z|$, and $|w|$ up to one hundred…
We give an induction-free axiom system for diophantine correct open induction. We relate the problem of whether a finitely generated ring of Puiseux polynomials is diophantine correct to a problem about the value-distribution of a tuple of…
In 1876 Brocard, and independently in 1913 Ramanujan, asked to find all integer solutions for the equation $n!=x^2-1$. It is conjectured that this equation has only three solutions, but up to now this is an open problem. Overholt observed…
We establish a `mixed' version of a fundamental theorem of Khintchine within the field of simultaneous Diophantine approximation. Via the notion of ubiquity we are able to make significant progress towards the completion of the metric…
