We demonstrate the general outlines of a method for obtaining analytic expressions for certain types of general arithmetical sums. In particular, analytical expressions for a general arithmetical sum whose terms are summed over either the…
Euler had considered the problem of finding three integers whose sum, product, and also the sum of the products of the integers, taken two at a time, are all perfect squares. Euler's methods of solving the problem lead to parametric…
Ten new exact solutions of the Riccati equation $dy/dx=a(x)+b(x)y+c(x)y^{2}$ are presented. The solutions are obtained by assuming certain relations among the coefficients $a(x)$, $b(x)$ and $c(x)$ of the Riccati equation, in the form of…
Suppose that $c,d,\alpha,\beta$ are real numbers satisfying the inequalities $1<d<c<79/71$ and $1<\alpha<\beta<6^{1-d/c}$. In this paper, it is proved that, for sufficiently large real numbers $N_1$ and $N_2$ subject to $\alpha\leqslant…
We prove that the Diophantine equation N X^2 + 2^L 3^M = Y^N has no solutions (N,X,Y,L,M) in positive integers with N > 1 and gcd(NX,Y) = 1, generalizing results of Luca, Wang and Wang, and Luca and Soydan. Our proofs use results of Bilu,…

Let $ \{L_n\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Lucas numbers. In this paper, we look at the exponential Diophantine equation $L_n-2^x3^y=c$, for $n,x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$. We treat the cases $c\in -\mathbb{N}$, $c=0$ and $c\in \mathbb{N}$…
For the positive integer $n$, let $f(n)$ denote the number of positive integer solutions $(n_1, n_2, n_3)$ of the Diophantine equation $$ {4\over n}={1\over n_1}+{1\over n_2}+{1\over n_3}. $$ For the prime number $p$, $f(p)$ can be split…

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…
