Abstract

We completely solve the Diophantine equations x ² + 2 a q b = y (for q = 17, 29, 41). We also determine all C = p a p k a k and C = 2 a p a p k a k , where p , . . . , p k are fixed primes satisfying certain conditions. The corresponding Diophantine equations x² + C = yⁿ may be studied by the method used by Abu Muriefah et al. (2008) and Luca and Togbé (2009).
