Multiplicative relations on binary recurrences

Florian Luca, Volker Ziegler (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Given a binary recurrence ${u_{n}}_{n \geq 0}$ , we consider the Diophantine equation $u_{n_{1}}^{x_{1}} \dots u_{n_{L}}^{x_{L}} = 1$ with nonnegative integer unknowns $n_{1}, . . ., n_{L}$ , where $n_{i} \neq n_{j}$ for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ L, $m a x | x_{i} | : 1 \leq i \leq L \leq K$ , 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.

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let g ≥ 2 be an integer and $_{g} \subset ℕ$ be the set of repdigits in base g. Let $_{g}$ be the set of Diophantine triples with values in $_{g}$ ; that is, $_{g}$ is the set of all triples (a,b,c) ∈ ℕ³ with c < b < a such that ab + 1, ac + 1 and bc + 1 lie in the set $_{g}$ . We prove effective finiteness results for the set $_{g}$ .

Similarity:

In this paper, we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $B_{1}^{p} + 2 B_{2}^{p} + \dots + k B_{k}^{p} = B_{n}^{q}$ in positive integer variables $(k, n)$ , where $B_{i}$ is the $i^{t h}$ balancing number if the exponents $p$ , $q$ are included in the set ${1, 2}$ .

Diophantine equations involving factorials

Horst Alzer, Florian Luca (2017)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We study the Diophantine equations ${(k!)}^{n} - k^{n} = {(n!)}^{k} - n^{k}$ and ${(k!)}^{n} + k^{n} = {(n!)}^{k} + n^{k},$ where $k$ and $n$ are positive integers. We show that the first one holds if and only if $k = n$ or $(k, n) = (1, 2), (2, 1)$ and that the second one holds if and only if $k = n$ .

On systems of diophantine equations with a large number of solutions

Jerzy Browkin (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider systems of equations of the form $x_{i} + x_{j} = x_{k}$ and $x_{i} \cdot x_{j} = x_{k}$ , which have finitely many integer solutions, proposed by A. Tyszka. For such a system we construct a slightly larger one with much more solutions than the given one.

In p. 219 of R.K. Guy’s , 3rd edn., Springer, New York, 2004, we are asked to prove that the Diophantine equation $x^{n} + y^{n} = n! z^{n}$ has no integer solutions with $n \in ℕ_{+}$ and $n > 2$ . But, contrary to this expectation, we show that for $n = 3$ , this equation has infinitely many primitive integer solutions, i.e. the solutions satisfying the condition $gcd (x, y, z) = 1$ .

Applying results on linear forms in p-adic logarithms, we prove that if (x,y,z) is a positive integer solution to the equation $x^{y} - y^{x} = c^{z}$ with gcd(x,y) = 1 then (x,y,z) = (2,1,k), (3,2,k), k ≥ 1 if c = 1, and either $(x, y, z) = (c^{k} + 1, 1, k)$ , k ≥ 1 or $2 \leq x < y \leq m a x 1.5 \times 10^{10}, c$ if c ≥ 2.

Let r,m be positive integers with r > 1, m even, and A,B be integers satisfying $A + B \sqrt (- 1) = {(m + \sqrt (- 1))}^{r}$ . We prove that the Diophantine equation ${| A |}^{x} + {| B |}^{y} = {(m ² + 1)}^{z}$ has no positive integer solutions in (x,y,z) other than (x,y,z) = (2,2,r), whenever $r > 10^{74}$ or $m > 10^{34}$ . Our result is an explicit refinement of a theorem due to F. Luca.

Complete solution of the Diophantine equation $x^{y} + y^{x} = z^{z}$

Mihai Cipu (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The triples $(x, y, z) = (1, z^{z} - 1, z)$ , $(x, y, z) = (z^{z} - 1, 1, z)$ , where $z \in ℕ$ , satisfy the equation $x^{y} + y^{x} = z^{z}$ . In this paper it is shown that the same equation has no integer solution with $min {x, y, z} > 1$ , thus a conjecture put forward by Z. Zhang, J. Luo, P. Z. Yuan (2013) is confirmed.
