On the generalized Ramanujan-Nagell equation
This paper is concerned with the estimation of the number of integer solutions to exponential equations in several variables, over function fields. We develop a method which sometimes allows to replace known exponential bounds with polynomial ones. More generally, we prove a counting result (Thm. 1) on the integer points where given exponential terms become linearly dependent over the constant field. Several applications are given to equations (Cor. 1) and to the estimation of the number of equal...
Let and define , the -generalized Fibonacci sequence whose terms satisfy the recurrence relation , with initial conditions ( terms) and such that the first nonzero term is . The sequences and are the known Fibonacci and Tribonacci sequences, respectively. In 2005, Noe and Post made a conjecture related to the possible solutions of the Diophantine equation . In this note, we use transcendental tools to provide a general method for finding the intersections which gives evidence supporting...
We completely solve the Diophantine equations (for q = 17, 29, 41). We also determine all and , where 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).
Let N be a set of natural numbers and Z be a set of integers. Let M₂(Z) denotes the set of all 2x2 matrices with integer entries. We give necessary and suficient conditions for solvability of the matrix negative Pell equation (P) X² - dY² = -I with d ∈ N for nonsingular X,Y belonging to M₂(Z) and his generalization (Pn) with d ∈ N for nonsingular , i=1,...,n.
