Consider the Diophantine equation yn=x+x(x+1)+⋯+x(x+1)⋯(x+k), where x, y, n, and k are integers. In 2016, a research article, entitled – ’power values of sums of products of consecutive integers’, primarily proved the inequality n= 19,736 to obtain all solutions (x,y,n) of the equation for the fixed positive integers k≤10. In this paper, we improve the bound as n≤ 10,000 for the same case k≤10, and for any fixed general positive integer k, we give an upper bound depending only on k for n.

For an integer n≯1 letP(n) be the largest prime factor of n. We prove that there are infinitely many triplets of consecutive integers with descending largest prime factors, that is P(n - 1) ≯P(n)≯P(n+1) occurs for infinitely many integers n.

The solution of the problem of finding such pairs of integers is not a thing of yesterday, as may be seen by consulting Hutton's translation of Ozanam's Recreations, i. pp. 46–8 (1814).

Frobenius-Rabinowitsch's theorem provides us with a necessary and sufficient condition for the class-number of a complex quadratic field with negative discriminant D to be one in terms of the primality of the values taken by the quadratic polynomial with discriminant Don consecutive integers (See [1], [7]). M. D. Hendy extended Frobenius-Rabinowitsch's result to a necessary and sufficient condition for the class-number of a complex quadratic field with discriminant D to be two in terms of the primality of the values taken by the quadratic polynomials and with discriminant D (see [2], [7]).
