The general diophantine equations of the second and third degree are far from being totally solved. The equations considered in this paper are   i)  x2−my2=±1 ii)  x3+my3+m2z3−3mxyz=1iii)  Some fifth degree diopantine equationsInfinitely many solutions of each of these equations will be stated explicitly, using the results from the ACF discussed before.It is known that the solutions of Pell's equation are well exploited. We include it here because we shall use a common method to solve these three above mentioned equations and the method becomes very simple in Pell's equations case.Some new third and fifth degree combinatorial identities are derived from units in algebraic number fields.

We shall prove in the present note a theorem on units of algebraic number fields, applying one of the strongest formulations, be Hasse [3], of Grunwald’s existence theorem.

In this paper the problem of constructing space–time from string theory is addressed in the context of D-brane physics. It is suggested that the knowledge of discrete configurations of D-branes is sufficient to reconstruct the motivic building blocks of certain Calabi–Yau varieties. The collections of D-branes involved have algebraic base points, leading to the notion of K-arithmetic D-crystals for algebraic number fields K. This idea can be tested for D0-branes in the framework of toroidal compactifications via the conjectures of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. For the special class of D0-crystals of Heegner type these conjectures can be interpreted as formulae that relate the canonical Néron–Tate height of the base points of the D-crystals to special values of the motivic L-function at the central point. In simple cases the knowledge of the D-crystals of Heegner type suffices to uniquely determine the geometry.
