Reference request: on sums of the form $ax^m + by^n = h$

I know that equations of the form $$\displaystyle ax^d + by^d = h$$ with $a,b,h \in \mathbb{Z}$ have been thoroughly investigated as a special (and interesting) case of the Thue-Mahler equation, for ...

Different solution of power Diophantine equation based on constant term

Let us define a power Diophantine equation by 2 algebraic functions $f,g$ (having different degree) and by integers $k, l >0$ where, there are finite solutions for $f(x)+k=g(y)$, but there exists $...

Upper bounds for solutions to a Pell-like equation

Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer that is not a square and $m$ be any nonzero integer. Let $x$ and $y$ be positive integers that solve $$x^2 - N y^2 = m^2$$ with $x + y$ minimal (in light of the ...

The strong twin conjecture can be transformed into the unsolvability of a particular Diophantine equation

Let us consider the strong twin conjecture: For all positive integer $n$ there exist a prime $p$ such that $$n+4<p<2^n2^4$$ and $p$ is a prime and $p+2$ is a prime Since the inequalities and the ...

A diophantine equation involving partial sums of exponentials similar than the equation in Fermat's Last Theorem

I'm curious about the following diophantine equation from my invention: I don't know if this is in the literature, I wrote it using creativity in an attempt to write a variant of the equation in ...

When is $\phi(a^n+b^n+c^n)=0\mod n$?

A corollary Zsigmondy's Theorem leads to the following congruence (one can look to $(24)$),$\phi(a^n+b^n)=0\mod n$ whenever $a, b$ are coprime and $n \neq 2$ and $(a,b)\neq(1,1)$. (Here $\phi$ is the ...

What about an alternative formulation for different prime constellations in the spirit of Suzuki's theorem for twin primes?

It is known that the twin prime conjecture is a special case of the $k$-tuple conjecture. See if you want the article with title k-Tuple Conjecture from the encyclopedia Wolfram MathWorld. On the ...
