We consider $N$, the number of solutions $(x,y,u,v)$ to the equation $ (-1)^u r a^x + (-1)^v s b^y = c $ in nonnegative integers $x, y$ and integers $u, v \in \{0,1\}$, for given integers $a>1$, $b>1$, $c>0$, $r>0$ and $s>0$. When…

In this paper we consider $N$, the number of solutions $(x,y,u,v)$ to the equation $ (-1)^u r a^x + (-1)^v s b^y = c$ in nonnegative integers $x, y$ and integers $u, v \in \{0,1\}$, for given integers $a>1$, $b>1$, $c>0$, $r>0$ and $s>0$.…

We improve earlier work on the title equation (where $p$ and $q$ are primes and $c$ is a positive integer) by allowing $x$ and $y$ to be zero as well as positive. Earlier work on the title equation showed that, with listed exceptions, there…

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…

For relatively prime integers $a$ and $b$ both greater than one and odd integer $c$, there are at most two solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ to the equation $a^x + b^y = c^z$. There are an infinite number of $(a,b,c)$ giving exactly…

Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be distinct primes with $a<b$. Let $S(a,b,c)$ denote the number of positive integer solutions $(x,y,z)$ of the equation $a^x + b^y = c^z$. In a previous paper \cite{LeSt} it was shown that if $(a,b,c)$ is a triple of…

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…

We construct countably infinitely many nonradial singular solutions of the problem \[ \Delta u+e^u=0\ \ \textrm{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^N\backslash\{0\},\ \ 4\le N\le 10 \] of the form \[ u(r,\sigma)=-2\log r+\log 2(N-2)+v(\sigma), \] where…

In a recent work, the present author developed an efficient method to find the number of solutions of $ax+by+cz=n$ in non-negative integer triples $(x,y,z)$ where $a,b,c$ and $n$ are given natural numbers. In this note, we use that formula…

In this paper, we show that there are only finitely many $c$ such that the equation $U_n - V_m = c$ has at least two distinct solutions $(n,m)$, where $\{U_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ and $\{V_m\}_{m\geq 0}$ are given linear recurrence sequences.

For any fixed coprime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ with $\min\{a,b,c\}>1$, we prove that the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ has at most two solutions in positive integers $x,y$ and $z$, except for one specific case which exactly gives three…

Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be fixed coprime positive integers with $\min\{ a,b,c \} >1$. Let $N(a,b,c)$ denote the number of positive integer solutions $(x,y,z)$ of the equation $a^x + b^y = c^z$. We show that if $(a,b,c)$ is a triple of distinct…

It is conjectured that for any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ all greater than 1 there is at most one solution to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ in positive integers $x,y$ and $z$, except for specific cases. In this…

Let $s(n)$ denote the sum of digits in the binary expansion of the integer $n$. Hare, Laishram and Stoll (2011) studied the number of odd integers such that $s(n)=s(n^2)=k$, for a given integer $k\geq 1$. The remaining cases that could not…

It is conjectured that for any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ all greater than 1 there is at most one solution to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ in positive integers $x,y$ and $z$, except for specific cases. We develop…

Considering the equation $$a^x+b^y = c^z,$$ Le gives an upper bound on the number of solutions $(x,y,z)$, and a bound on $z$. Here we give slight improvements to these results, also removing the restriction that $a$, $b$, $c$ be squarefree.

We consider a variant of the ABC Conjecture, attempting to count the number of solutions to $A+B+C=0$, in relatively prime integers $A,B,C$ each of absolute value less than $N$ with $r(A)<|A|^a, r(B)<|B|^b, r(C)<|C|^c.$ The ABC Conjecture…

We study the solutions of a Diophantine equation of the form $a^x+b^y=c^z$, where $a\equiv 2 \pmod 4$, $b\equiv 3 \pmod 4$ and $\gcd (a,b,c)=1$. The main result is that if there exists a solution $(x,y,z)=(2,2,r)$ with $r>1$ odd then this…

Let $c$ be a positive odd integer and $R$ a set of $n$ primes coprime with $c$. We consider equations $X + Y = c^z$ in three integer unknowns $X$, $Y$, $z$, where $z > 0$, $Y > X > 0$, and the primes dividing $XY$ are precisely those in…

Let $f$ be a polynomial with coefficients in the ring $O_S$ of $S$-integers of a number field $K$, $b$ a non-zero $S$-integer, and $m$ an integer $\ge 2$. We consider the equation $( \star )$: $f(x) = b y^m$ in $x,y \in O_S$. Under the…
