Let X be a complex, rationally connected, projective manifold. We show that X admits a modification X' that contains a quasi-line, ie a smooth rational curve whose normal bundle is a direct sum of copies of O_{P^1}(1). For manifolds…
In this paper, we completely classify the raional solutions of the Noumi and Yamada system of type A_4^{(1)}, which is a generalization of the forth Painlev\'e equation. The rational solutions are classified to three types by the B\"acklund…
In this study, we investigate the form of solutions, stability character and asymptotic behavior of the following rational difference equation x_{n+1}=({\gamma}/(x_{n}(x_{n-1}+{\alpha})+\b{eta})), n=0,1,..., where the inital values x_{-1}…
We consider the problem of finding integer triangles with $R/r$ a positive rational, where $R$ and $r$ are the radii of the circumcircle and an excircle, respectively. We show that for general triangles $R/r>1/4$ applies. The equation…
The paper is concerned with the slightly subcritical elliptic problem with Hardy term \[ \left\{ \begin{aligned} -\Delta u-\mu\frac{u}{|x|^2} &= |u|^{2^{\ast}-2-\epsilon}u &&\quad \text{in } \Omega, \\\ u &= 0&&\quad \text{on }…

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 $$ y^m=p_{n}(x)+\sum_{i=1}^{k}p_{a_{i}}(x), $$…
The existence of a formal particular solution (family of solutions) of oscillating type under certain conditions has been proved for the quasi-linear ordinary differential equations system. The asymptotic nature of this solution (the family…
A rational number is dyadic if it has a finite binary representation $p/2^k$, where $p$ is an integer and $k$ is a nonnegative integer. Dyadic rationals are important for numerical computations because they have an exact representation in…
Numbers are often used to define more complicated numbers. For example, two integers are used to define a rational number and two reals are used to define a complex number. It might be expected that an irrational power of an irrational…
Given a set $S$ of elements in a number field $k$, we discuss the existence of planar algebraic curves over $k$ which possess rational points whose $x$-coordinates are exactly the elements of $S$. If the size $|S|$ of $S$ is either $4,5$,…
We consider the practical computation of rational points on y^2=x(x^2+ax+b). The algebra necessary for a 4-descent procedure is described. A simple further descent is then described which only uses integer arithmetic. Numerous examples are…
In this note, we show that each positive rational number can be written as $\varphi(m^2)/\varphi(n^2)$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function and $m$ and $n$ are positive integers.
The object of this paper is to give a new proof of all the solutions of the Diophantine equation x^2+11^m=y^n; in positive integers x, y with odd m>1 and n>=3.

The families of simplest cubic, simplest quartic and simplest sextic fields and the related Thue equations are well known. The family of simplest cubic Thue equations was already studied in the relative case, over imaginary quadratic…
All of the six Painlev\'e equations except the first have families of rational solutions, which are frequently important in applications. The third Painlev\'e equation in generic form depends on two parameters $m$ and $n$, and it has…
In this paper, we study a Ramsey-type problem for equations of the form $ax+by=p(z)$. We show that if certain technical assumptions hold, then any 2-colouring of the positive integers admits infinitely many monochromatic solutions to the…
The existence of a positive solution to a class of Choquard equations with potential going at a positive limit at infinity possibly from above or oscillating is proved. Our results include the physical case and do not require any symmetry…
