TO APPEAR IN AEQUATIONES MATHEMATICAE - WITHOUT THEOREM 2. THEOREM 2 IS CORRECTLY PROVED IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS 1 AND 2. AUTHOR'S VERSION 3 (WITH A NEW FIGURE 6A) IS UNNECESSARY. Let F \subseteq R denote the field of numbers which are…

Motivated by the recent result of Farhi we show that for each $n\equiv \pm 1\pmod{6}$ the title Diophantine equation has at least two solutions in integers. As a consequence, we get that each (even) perfect number is a sum of three cubes of…

Let P(x,y) be a rational polynomial and k in Q be a generic value. If the curve (P(x,y)=k) is irreducible and admits an infinite number of points whose coordinates are integers then there exist algebraic automorphisms that send P(x,y) to…

In this paper we describe a new method of obtaining ideal solutions of the well-known Tarry-Escott problem, that is, the problem of finding two distinct sets of integers $x_i,\;i=1,\,2,\,\dots,\,k+1$ and $y_i,\;i=1,\,2,\,\dots,\,k+1$ such…

We prove that $n$ plane algebraic curves determine $O(n^{(k+2)/(k+1)})$ points of $k$-th order tangency. This generalizes an earlier result of Ellenberg, Solymosi, and Zahl on the number of (first order) tangencies determined by $n$ plane…

A pair of symmetric bilinear forms A and B determine a binary form $f(x,y) = disc(Ax-By)$. We prove that the question of whether a given binary form can be written in this way as a discriminant form generically satisfies a local-global…

The 3x+1 problem is one of the most classical problems in computer science, related to many fields. As it is thought by scientists a highly hard problem, resolving it successfully not only can improve the research in many relating fields,…

In this paper we produce families of Riemannian metrics with positive constant $\sigma_k$-curvature equal to $2^{-k} {n \choose k}$ by performing the connected sum of two given compact {\em non degenerate} $n$--dimensional solutions…

Suppose that $(U_{n})_{n \geq 0}$ is a binary recurrence sequence and has a dominant root $\alpha$ with $\alpha>1$ and the discriminant $D$ is square-free. In this paper, we study the Diophantine equation $U_n + U_m = x^q$ in integers $n…

Mordell equations are celebrated equations within number theory and are named after Louis Mordell, an American-born British mathematician, known for his pioneering research in number theory. In this paper, we discover all Mordell equations…

We give a generalization of Collatz conjecture or 3n+1 problem on 2-adic completion of Q. A isometric of $Q_2$ provides information on the average behavior of the firsts terms of the sequence according to the class of $u_0$ modulo $2^m$. A…

We provide several extensions of the modular method which were motivated by the problem of completing previous work to prove that, for any integer $n \geq 2$, the equation \[ x^{13} + y^{13} = 3 z^n \] has no non-trivial solutions. In…

For $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $q\in [0,1[$, the Vaksman-Soibelman quantum sphere $S^{2n+1}_q$ is described by an associative algebra $\mathcal{A}(S^{2n+1}_q)$ deforming the algebra of polynomial functions on the 2n+1 dimensional unit sphere. Its…

Consider the elliptic curve $E$ given by the Weierstrass equation $y^2 = x^3 - 11x - 14$, which has complex multiplication by the order of conductor $2$ inside $\mathbb{Z}[i]$. It was recently observed in a paper of Daniels and…

Let $N_a$ be the number of solutions to the equation $x^{2^k+1}+x+a=0$ in $\GF {n}$ where $\gcd(k,n)=1$. In 2004, by Bluher \cite{BLUHER2004} it was known that possible values of $N_a$ are only 0, 1 and 3. In 2008, Helleseth and Kholosha…

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.…

A curve X over the field Q of rational numbers is modular if it is dominated by X_1(N) for some N; if in addition the image of its jacobian in J_1(N) is contained in the new subvariety of J_1(N), then X is called a new modular curve. We…

Consider a $2\times n$ rectangular grid composed of $1\times 1$ squares. Cutting only along the edges between squares, how many ways are there to divide the board into $k$ pieces? Building off the work of Durham and Richmond, who found the…

Let $n$ be a positive integer greater than $2$. We define \textit{the Proth numerical semigroup}, $P_{k}(n)$, generated by $\{k 2^{n+i}+1 \,\mid\, i \in \mathbb{N}\}$, where $k$ is an odd positive number and $k < 2^{n}$. In this paper, we…

We develop a technique to study curves in a variety which has a degeneration into some union of varieties. The class of such varieties is very broad, but the theory becomes particularly useful when the variety has a degeneration into a…
