Numerically obtained primitive solutions are presented for several cases with number of terms equal to or greater than powers. Further, geometric representations of solutions for the second and third power equations are devised by recasting the general equation in a form with rational solutions less than unity. Finally, it is suggested to consider negative and complex integers in seeking solutions to Diophantine forms in general.展开更多

The solutions (x, y, m, n) of the exponential Diophantine equation X^2+2~m=y^n,x,y,m,n∈N,2y,n【2 (1)are connected with many questions in number theory and combinatorial theory. In the recent fifty years, there were many papers concerned with the equation written by Ljunggren, Nagell, Brown, Toyoizumi and Cohn. In 1986, ref. [1] claimed that all solutions of (1) had been determined. However, we have not seen the proof so far. Therefore, the solution of (1) has not been found yet. In this note, using Baker’s method, we prove the following result.展开更多
