In this paper, we prove that F 22 = 17711 is the largest Fibonacci number whose decimal expansion is of the form a b … b c … c . The proof uses lower bounds for linear forms in three logarithms of algebraic numbers and some tools from Diophantine approximation.

AbstractIn this paper, we establish a number of theorems on the classic Diophantine equation of S. S. Pillai, ax – by = c, where a, b and c are given nonzero integers with a, b ≥ 2. In particular, we obtain the sharp result that there are at most two solutions in positive integers x and y and deduce a variety of explicit conditions under which there exists at most a single such solution. These improve or generalize prior work of Le, Leveque, Pillai, Scott and Terai. The main tools used include lower bounds for linear forms in the logarithms of (two) algebraic numbers and various elementary arguments.

AbstractWe give several results concerning the simultaneous approximation of certain complex numbers. For instance, we give lower bounds for |a–ξo |+ | ea – ξ1 |, where a is any non-zero complex number, and ξ are two algebraic numbers. We also improve the estimate of the so-called Franklin Schneider theorem concerning | b – ξ | + | a – ξ | + | ab – ξ. We deduce these results from an estimate for linear forms in logarithms.

AbstractIn this paper, by using lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and the theory of continued fractions, we find all Fibonacci numbers that appear in generalized Pell sequences. Some interesting estimations involving generalized Pell numbers, that we believe are of independent interest, are also deduced. This paper continues a previous work that searched for Fibonacci numbers in the Pell sequence.

Abstract Let $$ (T_{n})_{n\ge 0} $$ ( T n ) n ≥ 0 be the sequence of Tribonacci numbers defined by $$ T_0=0 $$ T 0 = 0 , $$ T_1=T_2=1$$ T 1 = T 2 = 1 , and $$ T_{n+3}= T_{n+2}+T_{n+1} +T_n$$ T n + 3 = T n + 2 + T n + 1 + T n for all $$ n\ge 0 $$ n ≥ 0 . In this note, we use of lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and the Baker-Davenport reduction procedure to find all Tribonacci numbers that are concatenations of two repdigits.

We apply methods of Mahler to obtain explicit lower bounds for certain combinations of E-functions satisfying systems of linear differential equations as studied by Makarov. Our results sharpen and generalise earlier results of Mahler, Shidlovskii, and Väänänen.

AbstractWe solve several multi-parameter families of binomial Thue equations of arbitrary degree; for example, we solve the equation5uxn − 2r3s yn = ±1,in non-zero integers x, y and positive integers u, r, s and n ≥ 3. Our approach uses several Frey curves simultaneously, Galois representations and level-lowering, new lower bounds for linear forms in 3 logarithms due to Mignotte and a famous theorem of Bennett on binomial Thue equations.
