In this paper, we study the number of integer pair solutions to the equation $|F(x,y)| = 1$ where $F(x,y) \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]$ is an irreducible (over $\mathbb{Z}$) binary form with degree $n \geqslant 3$ and exactly three nonzero summands.…

In this paper I demonstrate that any pair (m, n) of non-zero and distinct rational numbers may have, at most, four representations as the product of two rational factors such that the sum of factors of m coincides with the sum of factors of…

In this paper we completely solve a simple quartic family of Thue equations over $\mathbb{C}(T)$. Specifically, we apply the ABC-Theorem to find all solutions $(x,y) \in \mathbb{C}[T] \times \mathbb{C}[T]$ to the set of Thue equations…

We show that there are at most two solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ for positive integers $a$, $b$, and $c$ all greater than one, with just one exceptional case when $\gcd(a,b)=1$, and just one…

Take an odd number x >0. Then 3x+1 is even and one can find an integer k> 0 so that y= 3x+1/2^k is again odd. We get in this way the mapping T, Tx=y. The paper contains two theorems describing statistical properties of T. The first…

We establish some upper bounds for the number of integer solutions to the Thue inequality $|F(x , y)| \leq m$, where $F$ is a binary form of degree $n \geq 3$ and with non-zero discriminant $D$, and $m$ is an integer. Our upper bounds are…
