On the Non-negative Integer Solutions to Diophantine Equations $F_n - F_m = 7^a$ and $F_n - F_m = 13^a$

In this paper, we study the solutions of the equation $F_n-F_m=p^a$ where $p$ is either $7$ or $13$ and $n>m\geqslant 0$, $a\geqslant 2$. We confirm the conjecture of Erduvan and Keskin by proving that there is no solutions for this Diophantine equation. We will use the lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms (Baker's theory) and a version of the Baker-Davenport reduction method in Diophantine approximation.

Sign changes of a product of Dirichlet character and Fourier coefficients of half integral weight modular forms

Let $f\in S_{k+1/2}(N,χ)$ be a Hecke eigenform of half integral weight $k+1/2\,(k\geq 2)$ and the real nebentypus $χ=\pm 1$ where the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$ are reals. We prove that the sequence $\{χ(p^ν)a(tp^{2ν})\}_{ν\in\N}$ has infinitely many sign changes for almost all primes $p$ where $t$ is a squarefree integer such that $a(t)\neq 0$. The same result holds for the sequences of Fourier coefficients $\{a(tp^{2(2ν+1)})\}_{ν\in\N}$ and $\{a(tp^{4ν})\}_{ν\in\N}$.

The equidistribution of Fourier coefficients of half integral weight modular forms on the plane

Let $f=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a(n)q^{n}\in S_{k+1/2}(N,χ_{0})$ be a non-zero cuspidal Hecke eigenform of weight $k+\frac{1}{2}$ and the trivial nebentypus $χ_{0}$ where the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$ are real. Bruinier and Kohnen conjectured that the signs of $a(n)$ are equidistributed. This conjecture was proved to be true by Inam, Wiese and Arias-de-Reyna for the subfamilies $\{a(t n^{2})\}_{n}$ where $t$ is a squarefree integer such that $a(t)\neq 0$. Let $q$ and $d$ be natural numbers such that $(d,q)=1$. In this work, we show that $\{a(t n^{2})\}_{n}$ is equidistributed over any arithmetic progression $n\equiv d\text{ mod }q$.

Sign changes of a product of Dirichlet characters and Fourier coefficients of Hecke eigenforms

Let $f\in S_k(Γ_{0}(N))$ be a normalized Hecke eigenform of even integral weight $k$ and level $N$. Let $j\ge1$ be a positive integer. We prove that for almost all primes $p$, $p\nmid N$, and for all characters $χ_{0}=\pm 1\pmod N$, the sequence $\left(χ_{0}(p^{nj})a(p^{nj})\right)_{n\in\N}$ has infinitely many sign changes. We also obtain a similar result for the sequence $\left(a(p^{j(1+2n)})\right)_{n\in\N}$ when $j$ is odd.
