Congruent numbers with higher exponents

This paper investigates the system of equations x 2 + a y m = z 1 2 , x 2 - a y m = z 2 2 in positive integers x , y , z 1 , z 2 , where a and m are positive integers with m 3 . In case of m = 2 we would obtain the classical problem of congruent numbers. We provide a procedure to solve the simultaneous equations above for a class of the coefficient a with the condition gcd ( x , z 1 ) = gcd ( x , z 2 ) = gcd ( z 1 , z 2 ) = 1 . Further, under same condition, we even prove a finiteness theorem for arbitrary nonzero a .

Jeśmanowicz' conjecture with congruence relations

Similarity:

Let a,b and c be relatively prime positive integers such that a²+b² = c². We prove that if b 0 ( m o d 2 r ) and b ± 2 r ( m o d a ) for some non-negative integer r, then the Diophantine equation a x + b y = c z has only the positive solution (x,y,z) = (2,2,2). We also show that the same holds if c ≡ -1 (mod a).

Multiplicative relations on binary recurrences

Florian Luca, Volker Ziegler (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Given a binary recurrence u n n 0 , we consider the Diophantine equation u n 1 x 1 u n L x L = 1 with nonnegative integer unknowns n 1 , . . . , n L , where n i n j for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ L, m a x | x i | : 1 i L K , and K is a fixed parameter. We show that the above equation has only finitely many solutions and the largest one can be explicitly bounded. We demonstrate the strength of our method by completely solving a particular Diophantine equation of the above form.

On the Lebesgue-Nagell equation

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

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).

Further remarks on Diophantine quintuples

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

A set of m positive integers with the property that the product of any two of them is the predecessor of a perfect square is called a Diophantine m-tuple. Much work has been done attempting to prove that there exist no Diophantine quintuples. In this paper we give stringent conditions that should be met by a putative Diophantine quintuple. Among others, we show that any Diophantine quintuple a,b,c,d,e with a < b < c < d < e s a t i s f i e s d < 1.55·1072 a n d b < 6.21·1035 w h e n 4 a < b , w h i l e f o r b < 4 a o n e h a s e i t h e r c = a + b + 2√(ab+1)...

Common terms in binary recurrences

Erzsébet Orosz (2006)

Acta Mathematica Universitatis Ostraviensis

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to prove that the common terms of linear recurrences M ( 2 a , - 1 , 0 , b ) and N ( 2 c , - 1 , 0 , d ) have at most 2 common terms if p = 2 , and have at most three common terms if p > 2 where D and p are fixed positive integers and p is a prime, such that neither D nor D + p is perfect square, further a , b , c , d are nonzero integers satisfying the equations a 2 - D b 2 = 1 and c 2 - ( D + p ) d 2 = 1 .

Similarity:

The two related Diophantine equations: X 1 4 + 4 X 2 4 = X 3 8 + 4 X 4 8 and Y 1 4 = Y 2 4 + Y 3 4 + 4 Y 4 4 , have infinitely many nontrivial, primitive integral solutions. We give two parametric solutions, one for each of these equations.
