Let $p$ be a prime number. In the early 2000s, it was proved that the Fermat equations with coefficients \[3x^p + 8y^p + 21z^p =0\quad \text{ and } \quad 3x^p + 4y^p + 5z^p=0 \] do not admit non-trivial solutions for a set of exponents $p$…

The classical Pell equation can be extended to the cubic case considering the elements of norm one in $Z[\sqrt[3]{r}]$, which satisfy $x^3 + r y^3 + r^2 z^3 - 3 r x y z = 1$. The solution of the cubic Pell equation is harder than the…

In our work we study the equations of the form $aX^4+bX^2 Y^2+cY^4=dZ^2$ over Gaussian integers by a method of the resolvents. We study as a new equations $X^4+6X^2 Y^2+Y^4=Z^2$ (Mordell's equation over $\mathbb{Z}[i]$),…
Let $K$ be a totally real field, and $r\geq 5$ a fixed rational prime. In this paper, we use the modular method as presented in the recent work of Freitas and Siksek to study non-trivial, primitive solutions $(x,y,z) \in \mathcal{O}_K^3$ of…
The title equation, where $p>3$ is a prime number $\not\equiv 7 \pmod 8$, $q$ is an odd prime number and $x,y,n$ are positive integers with $x,y$ relatively prime, is studied. When $p\equiv 3\pmod 8$, we prove (Theorem 2.3) that there are…

We determine the rational integers x,y,z such that x^3+y^9=z^2 and gcd(x,y,z)=1. First we determine a finite set of curves of genus 10 such that any primitive solution to x^3+y^9=z^2 corresponds to a rational point on one of those curves.…
