Let a, b, c be integers. In this paper, we prove the integer solutions of the equation axy + byz + czx = 0 satisfy max {|x|, |y|, |z|} ≤ 2 max {a, b, c} when a, b, c are odd positive integers, and when a = b = 1, c = -1, the positive integer solutions of the equation satisfy max {x, y, z} < exp ( exp ( exp (5))).

Bumby proved that the only positive integer solutions to the quartic Diophantine equation 3X4 - 2Y2 = 1 are (X, Y) = (1, 1),(3, 11). In this paper, we use Thue's hypergeometric method to prove that, for each integer m ≥ 1, the only positive integers solutions to the Diophantine equation (m2 + m + 1)X4 - (m2 + m)Y2 = 1 are (X,Y) = (1, 1),(2m + 1, 4m2 + 4m + 3).

Abstract We define a computable function f from positive integers to positive integers. We formulate a hypothesis which states that if a system S of equations of the forms xi· xj = xk and xi + 1 = xi has only finitely many solutions in non-negative integers x1, . . . , xi, then the solutions of S are bounded from above by f (2n). We prove the following: (1) the hypothesis implies that there exists an algorithm which takes as input a Diophantine equation, returns an integer, and this integer is greater than the heights of integer (non-negative integer, positive integer, rational) solutions, if the solution set is finite; (2) the hypothesis implies that the question of whether or not a given Diophantine equation has only finitely many rational solutions is decidable by a single query to an oracle that decides whether or not a given Diophantine equation has a rational solution; (3) the hypothesis implies that the question of whether or not a given Diophantine equation has only finitely many integer solutions is decidable by a single query to an oracle that decides whether or not a given Diophantine equation has an integer solution; (4) the hypothesis implies that if a set M ⊆ N has a finite-fold Diophantine representation, thenMis computable.

Using the theory of algebraic numbers, Mordell [1] has shown that the Diophantine equation1possesses only two solutions in positive integers; these are given by n = 2, m = 1, and n = 14, m = 5. We are interested in positive integer solutions to the generalized equation2and in this paper we prove for several choices of k and l that (2) has no solutions, in other cases the only solutions are given, and numerical evidence for all values of k and l for which max (k, l) ≤ 15 is also exhibited.

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 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.
