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…
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…
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…
We consider the number of solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ for the purely exponential Diophantine equation $a^x+b^y =c^z$ (with $\gcd(a,b)=1$). Apart from a list of known exceptions, a conjecture published in 2016 claims that this…
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…
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…
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…
This paper contributes to the conjecture of R. Scott and R. Styer which asserts 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…
Let $a,b,c$ be fixed coprime positive integers with $\min\{a,b,c\}>1$. In this paper, by analyzing the gap rule for solutions of the ternary purely exponential diophantine equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$, we prove that if $\max\{a,b,c\}\geq…
Let $a,b,c$ be fixed coprime positive integers with $\min\{a,b,c\}>1$. In this paper, combining the Gel'fond-Baker method with an elementary approach, we prove that if $\max\{a,b,c\}>5\times 10^{27}$, then the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ has at…
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…
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…
By using the complete discrimination system for polynomials, we study the number of positive solutions in {\small $C[0,1]$} to the integral equation {\small $\phi (x)=\int_0^1k(x,y)\phi ^n(y)dy$}, where {\small…
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…
In this paper, we use a variety of classical and new research methods for ternary exponential Diophantine equations and extensive use of computer calculations to study the conjecture of R. Scott and R. Styer which asserts that for any fixed…
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…
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 prove that for given integers b and c, the diophantine equation x^2+bx+c=y^2, has finitely many integer solutions(i.e. pairs in ZxZ),in fact an even number of such solutions(including the zero or no solutions case).We also offer an…
Let $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$ be relatively prime. Previous work showed that exactly one of the two equations $ax + by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax + by + 1 = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ has a nonnegative, integral solution; furthermore, the solution is unique.…
Let $(a,b,c)$ be pairwise relatively prime integers such that $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$. In 1956, Je{\'s}manowicz conjectured that the only solution of $a^x + b^y = c^z$ in positive integers is $(x,y,z)=(2,2,2)$. In this note we prove a polynomial…
