AbstractLet n be a positive integer. In this paper, we consider the diophantine equation We prove that this equation has only the positive integer solutions (n, x, y, z) = (1, t, 1, 1), (1, t, 3, 2), (3, 2, 2, 2). Therefore we extend the work done by Leszczyński (Wiadom. Mat., vol. 3, 1959, pp. 37–39) and Makowski (Wiadom. Mat., vol. 9, 1967, pp. 221–224).

Let D1, D2, D, k, λ be fixed integers such that D1 ≥ 1, D2 ≥ 1, gcd (D1, D2) = 1, D = D1D2 is not a square, ∣k∣ > 1, gcd (D, k) = 1 and λ = 1 or 4 according as 2 ∤ k or not. In this paper, we prove that every solution class S(l) of the equation D1x2-D2y2 = λkz, gcd (x, y) = 1, z > 0, has a unique positive integer solution [Formula: see text] satisfying [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where z runs over all integer solutions (x,y,z) of S(l),(u1,v1) is the fundamental solution of Pell's equation u2 - Dv2 = 1. This result corrects and improves some previous results given by M. H. Le.

Let $a,b,$ and $c$ be positive integers. We show that if $(a,b) =(N^k-1,N)$, where $N,k\geq 2$, then there is at most one positive integer solution $(x,y)$ to the exponential Diophantine equation $|a^x-b^y|=c$, unless $(N,k)=(2,2)$. Combining this with results of Bennett [3] and the first author [6], we stated all cases for which the equation $|(N^k \pm 1)^x - N^y|=c$ has more than one positive integer solutions $(x,y)$.

For any positive integer t, let ord_2 t denote the order of 2 in the factorization of t. Let a,\,b be two distinct fixed positive integers with \min\{a,b\}>1. In this paper, using some elementary number theory methods, the existence of positive integer solutions (x,n) of the polynomial-exponential Diophantine equation (*) (a^n-1)(b^n-1)=x^2 with n>2 is discussed. We prove that if \{a,b\}\ne \{13,239\} and ord_2(a^2-1)\ne ord_2(b^2-1), then (*) has no solutions (x,n) with 2\mid n. Thus it can be seen that if \{a,b\}\equiv \{3,7\},\{3,15\},\{7,11\},\{7,15\} or \{11,15\} \pmod{16}, where \{a,b\} \equiv \{a_0,b_0\} \pmod{16} means either a \equiv a_0 \pmod{16} and b \equiv b_0\pmod{16} or a\equiv b_0 \pmod{16} and b\equiv a_0 \pmod{16}, then (*) has no solutions (x,n).

Let [Formula: see text] be a positive integer which is not a square. Further, let [Formula: see text] be the least positive integer solution of the Pell equation [Formula: see text], and let [Formula: see text] denote the class number of binary quadratic primitive forms of discriminant [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] satisfies [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is called an exceptional number. In this paper, under the assumption that there have no exceptional numbers, we prove that the equation [Formula: see text] has no positive integer solutions [Formula: see text] satisfy [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

AbstractLet n be a positive integer. In this paper, using the results on the existence of primitive divisors of Lucas numbers and some properties of quadratic and exponential diophantine equations, we prove that if n ≡ 3 (mod 6), then the equation x 2 + (3n 2 + 1)y = (4n 2 + 1)z has only the positive integer solutions (x, y, z) = (n, 1, 1) and (8n 3 + 3n, 1, 3).

Let A, B be positive integers such that min{A,B}>1, gcd(A,B) = 1 and 2|B. In this paper, using an upper bound for solutions of ternary purely exponential Diophantine equations due to R. Scott and R. Styer, we prove that, for any positive integer n, if A >B3/8, then the equation (A2 n)x + (B2 n)y = ((A2 + B2)n)z has no positive integer solutions (x,y,z) with x > z > y; if B>A3/6, then it has no solutions (x,y,z) with y>z>x. Thus, combining the above conclusion with some existing results, we can deduce that, for any positive integer n, if B ≡ 2 (mod 4) and A >B3/8, then this equation has only the positive integer solution (x,y,z)=(1,1,1).

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.

In this paper, we studied the positive integer solutions of a typical Diophantine equation starting from two basic equations including a Diophantine equation and a Pell equation, and we will prove all the positive integer solutions of the typical Diophantine equation.
