We deal with various Diophantine equations involving the Euler totient function and various sequences of numbers, including factorials, powers, and Fibonacci sequences.
In an earlier paper, Tatong and Suvarnamani explores the Diophantine equation $p^x + p^y = z^2$ for a prime number $p$. In that paper they find some solutions to the equation for $p=2, 3$. In this paper, we look at a general version of this…
This article shines new light on the classical problem of tiling rectangles with squares efficiently with a novel method. With a twist on the traditional approach of resistor networks, we provide new and improved results on the matter using…
Our goal is to finally settle the persistent problem in Diophantine Approximation of finding best linear approximates. Classical results from the theory of continued fractions provide the solution for the special homogeneous case in the…
We reduce the principal problem of Additive Number Theory of whether an infinite sequence of integers constitutes a finite basis for the integers to a Diophantine problem involving the difference set of the sequence, by proving a formula…
Diophantine approximation is traditionally the study of how well real numbers are approximated by rationals. We propose a model for studying Diophantine approximation in an arbitrary totally bounded metric space where the rationals are…
In this paper we propose a method of solving a Nonlinear Diophantine Equation by converting it into a System of Diophantine Linear Equations.
In Diophantine approximation, inhomogeneous problems are linked with homogeneous ones by means of the so-called Transference Theorems. We revisit this classical topic by introducing new exponents of Diophantine approximation. We prove that…
We establish an explicit asymptotic formula for the number of rational solutions of intrinsic Diophantine inequalities on simply-connected simple algebraic groups, at arbitrarily small scales.
In this extended abstract we deal with the relations between the numerical/diophantine approximation and the symbolic/algebraic geometry approachs to solving of multivariate diophentine polynomial systems, obtaining several consecuences…
In this small paper we bring together various open problems on geometric multidimensional continued fractions.
For a given irrational number, we consider the properties of best rational approximations of given parities. There are three different kinds of rational numbers according to the parity of the numerator and denominator, say odd/odd, even/odd…
This expository article written for the Notices of the American Mathematical Society provides an overview of transcendental functions arising as solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e equations, for which the developments of the last two…
By using pairs of nontrivial rational solutions of congruent number equation $$ C_N:\;\;y^2=x^3-N^2x, $$ constructed are pairs of rational right (Pythagorean) triangles with one common side and the other sides equal to the sum and…
In this note we briefly survey and propose some open problems related to isoparametric theory.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because Conjecture 1 is false. Please see arXiv:0901.2093 for a justification that Conjecture 1 is false. The other main results are also available from the above URL.
This paper is devoted to the study of a problem of Cassels in multiplicative Diophantine approximation which involves minimising values of a product of affine linear forms computed at integral points. It was previously known that values of…
Throughout this book, we discuss some open problems in various branches of science, including mathematics, theoretical physics, astro-physics, geophysics etc. It is of our hope that some of the problems discussed in this book will find…
Using elementary number theory we study Diophantine equations over the rational integers of the following form, $y^2=(x+a)(x+a+k)(x+b)(x+b+k)$, $y^2=c^2x^4+ax^2+b$ and $y^2=(x^2-1)(x^2-\alpha^2)(x^2-(\alpha+1)^2).$ We express their integer…
The idea of using measure theoretic concepts to investigate the size of number theoretic sets, originating with E. Borel, has been used for nearly a century. It has led to the development of the theory of metrical Diophantine approximation,…
