We give an improved asymptotic upper bound on the number of diagonal Fermat curves $Ax^{\ell}+By^{\ell}=z^{\ell}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ with no $\mathbb{F}_{q}$-rational points, where $\ell$ is a prime number dividing $q-1$.

We prove that there is no non-trivial integral positive solution to the generalized Fermat equation.

In this paper, we show the nonvanishing of some Hecke characters on cyclotomic fields. The main ingredient of this paper is a computation of eigenfunctions and the action of Weil representation at some primes including the primes above $2$.…

We prove Fermat's Last Theorem over ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{5})$ and ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{17})$ for prime exponents $p \ge 5$ in certain congruence classes modulo $48$ by using a combination of the modular method and Brauer-Manin obstructions…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $k$ an imaginary quadratic field in which $p$ does not split. Based on their heuristic, Kundu and Washington posed a question which asks whether $\lambda$- and $\mu$-invariant of the anti-cyclotomic ${\Bbb…

A closed Riemann surface $S$ is called a generalized Fermat curve of type $(p,n)$, where $n,p \geq 2$ are integers such that $(p-1)(n-1)>2$, if it admits a group $H \cong {\mathbb Z}_{p}^{n}$ of conformal automorphisms with quotient…

Let $C_k$ be a smooth projective curve over a global field $k$, which is neither rational nor elliptic. Harris-Silverman, when $p=0$, and Schweizer, when $p>0$ together with an extra condition on the Jacobian variety…

For a large class (heuristically most) of irreducible binary cubic forms $F(x,y) \in \mathbb Z[x,y]$, Bennett and Dahmen proved that the generalized superelliptic equation $F(x,y)=z^l$ has at most finitely many solutions in $x,y \in \mathbb…

We study Greenberg's conjecture for cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extensions of real quadratic fields. Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{pq})$, where $$ p\equiv 1 \mod 8,\qquad q\equiv 9 \mod {16},\qquad \left(\frac{p}{q}\right)=-1. $$ Under the…

When restricted to some non-negative multiplicative function, say f, bounded on primes and that vanishes on non square-free integers, our result provides us with an asymptotic for $\sum_{n \le X}f(n)/n$ with error term $O((\log…

In this article, we study the solutions of certain type over $K$ of the Diophantine equation $x^2= By^p+Cz^p$ with prime exponent $p$, where $B$ is an odd integer and $C$ is either an odd integer or $C=2^r$ for $r \in \mathbb{N}$. Further,…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geq 0$. A generalized Fermat curve of type $(k,n)$, where $k,n \geq 2$ are integers (for $p \neq 0$ we also assume that $k$ is relatively prime to $p$), is a non-singular…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $p$ be an odd prime which splits in $K$. Let $E_1$ and $E_2$ be elliptic curves over $K$ such that the $Gal(\bar{K}/K)$-modules $E_1[p]$ and $E_2[p]$ are isomorphic. We show that under certain…

We obtain additional Diophantine applications of the methods surrounding Darmon's program for the generalized Fermat equation developed in the first part of this series of papers. As a first application, we use a multi-Frey approach…

We obtain new nonexistence results of generalized bent functions from $\{Z^n}_q$ to $\Z_q$ (called type $[n,q]$) in the case that there exist cyclotomic integers in $ \Z[\zeta_{q}]$ with absolute value $q^{\frac{n}{2}}$. This result…

Let $F$ be a finite field of odd characteristic. We prove that any set $A\subset F$ with $|A|\geq C|F|^{5/6}$ contains a nontrivial quadratic progression $(x, x+y, x+y^2), y\neq 0.$ For prime fields, this improves the previous best-known…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $K$ a finite unramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Building on recent work of Breuil, Herzig, Hu, Morra and Schraen, we study the smooth mod $p$ representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(K)$ appearing in a tower of…

We solve the diophantine equations x^4 + d y^2 = z^p for d=2 and d=3 and any prime p>349 and p>131 respectively. The method consists in generalizing the ideas applied by Frey, Ribet and Wiles in the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem, and by…

In a recent paper, the first author provided some lower bounds to solutions of the equations of Fermat and Catalan, based on local power series developments at the ramified prime of a prime cyclotomic extension. Although both equations have…
