Diophantine equations are polynomial equations $F=0$, or systems of polynomial equations $F_1=\ldots=F_k=0$, where $F,F_1,\ldots,F_k$ are polynomials in either $\mathbb{Z}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ of $\mathbb{Q}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ of which it is asked to find solutions over $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Q}$. Topics: Pell equations, quadratic forms, elliptic curves, abelian varieties, hyperelliptic curves, Thue equations, normic forms, K3 surfaces ...

Are twin primes the only solution to this equation?

Let $p,q_i, i \ge 1$ be primes, $m$ a positive integer. The equation $$ p.\prod_{i=1}^m(q_i-1)-(p-1).\prod_{i=1}^mq_i=2 $$ for $m=1$ has all twin primes $p,q_1=p+2$ as solution. Are there solutions …
