In this paper we study the Diophantine equation \begin{align*} b^k + \left(a+b\right)^k + &\left(2a+b\right)^k + \ldots + \left(a\left(x-1\right) + b\right)^k = \\ &y\left(y+c\right) \left(y+2c\right) \ldots \left(y+…
In this article, we are interested in whether a product of three consecutive integers $a (a+1) (a+2)$ divides another such product $b (b+1) (b+2)$. If this happens, we prove that there is some gaps between them, namely $b \gg \frac{a \log…
In this paper we study elliptic curves which have a number of points whose coordinates are in arithmetic progression. We first motivate this diophantine problem, prove some results, provide a number of interesting examples and, finally…
In the present paper, we have developed a method for solving \textit{diophantine inequalities} using their relationship with the \textit{difference between consecutive primes}. Using this approach we have been able to prove some theorems,…
We study solvability of the Diophantine equation \begin{equation*} \frac{n}{2^{n}}=\sum_{i=1}^{k}\frac{a_{i}}{2^{a_{i}}}, \end{equation*} in integers $n, k, a_{1},\ldots, a_{k}$ satisfying the conditions $k\geq 2$ and $a_{i}<a_{i+1}$ for…
We investigate a family of Diophantine polynomial equations which involve continuant functions. In particular, given a polynomial $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, we consider the equation $P(K_n(x_1,\ldots, x_n)) =…
A recursive algorithm is constructed which finds all solutions to a class of Diophantine equations connected to the problem of determining ordered n-tuples of positive integers satisfying the property that their sum is equal to their…
In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation \begin{align*}b^k +\left(a+b\right)^k &+ \cdots + \left(a\left(x-1\right) + b\right)^k=\\ &=d^l + \left(c+d\right)^l + \cdots + \left(c\left(y-1\right) + d\right)^l, \end{align*} where…
This work lies across three areas (in the title) of investigation that are by themselves of independent interest. A problem that arose in quantum computing led us to a link that tied these areas together. This link consists of a single…
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 $$ y^m=p_{n}(x)+\sum_{i=1}^{k}p_{a_{i}}(x), $$…
Diophantine tuples are of ancient and modern interest, with a huge literature. In this paper we study Diophantine graphs, i.e., finite graphs whose vertices are distinct positive integers, and two vertices are linked by an edge if and only…
We discuss a problem initially thought for the Mathematical Olympiad but which has several interpretations. The recurrence sequences involved in this problem may be generalized to recurrence sequences related to a much larger set of…
These notes represent an extended version of a talk I gave for the participants of the IMO 2009 and other interested people. We introduce diophantine equations and show evidence that it can be hard to solve them. Then we demonstrate how one…
We relate a previous result of ours on families of Diophantine equations having only trivial solutions with a result on the approximation of an algebraic number by products of rational numbers and units. We compare this approximation with a…
We study systems of polynomial equations in several classes of finitely generated rings and algebras. For each ring $R$ (or algebra) in one of these classes we obtain an interpretation by systems of equations of a ring of integers $O$ of a…
Let $A\subset \N_{+}$ and by $P_{A}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into parts from the set $A$. The aim of this paper is to prove several result concerning the existence of integer solutions of Diophantine equations…
We study systems of polynomial equations in infinite finitely generated commutative associative rings with an identity element. For each such ring $R$ we obtain an interpretation by systems of equations of a ring of integers $O$ of a finite…
The classical Khintchine and Jarn\'ik theorems, generalizations of a consequence of Dirichlet's theorem, are fundamental results in the theory of Diophantine approximation. These theorems are concerned with the size of the set of real…
We study product sets of finite arithmetic progressions of polynomials over a finite field. We prove a lower bound for the size of the product set, uniform in a wide range of parameters. We apply our results to resolve the function field…
Recursive formulas are derived for the number of solutions of linear and quadratic Diophantine equations with positive coefficients. This result is further extended to general non-linear additive Diophantine equations. It is shown that all…
