We show that if $k$ is a positive integer, then there are, under certain technical hypotheses, only finitely many coprime positive $k$-term arithmetic progressions whose product is a perfect power. If $4 \leq k \leq 11$, we obtain the more precise conclusion that there are, in fact, no such progressions. Our proofs exploit the modularity of Galois representations corresponding to certain Frey curves, together with a variety of results, classical and modern, on solvability of ternary Diophantine equations. As a straightforward corollary of our work, we sharpen and generalize a theorem of Sander on rational points on superelliptic curves.

We construct families of certain hyper- and superelliptic curves that contain a (small) number of rational points. This leads to lower bounds for the ranks of Jacobians of certain high genus curves.

Given $k\geqslant 2$, we show that there are at most finitely many rational numbers $x$ and $y\neq 0$ and integers $\ell \geqslant 2$ (with $(k,\ell )\neq (2,2)$) for which $$\begin{eqnarray}x(x+1)\cdots (x+k-1)=y^{\ell }.\end{eqnarray}$$ In particular, if we assume that $\ell$ is prime, then all such triples $(x,y,\ell )$ satisfy either $y=0$ or $\ell <\exp (3^{k})$.

Abstract We develop the relationship between quaternionic hyperbolic geometry and arithmetic counting or equidistribution applications, that arises from the action of arithmetic groups on quaternionic hyperbolic spaces, especially in dimension 2. We prove a Mertens counting formula for the rational points over a definite quaternion algebra A over ${\mathbb{Q}}$ in the light cone of quaternionic Hermitian forms, as well as a Neville equidistribution theorem of the set of rational points over A in quaternionic Heisenberg groups.
