We give a survey on some results covering the last 60 years concerning Jeśmanowicz' conjecture. Moreover, we conclude the survey with a new result by showing that the special Diophantine equation $$(20k)^x+(99k)^y=(101k)^z$$ has no solution other than $(x,y,z)=(2,2,2)$.
In this note, we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation x^2 +2^a.3^b.11^c=y^n in nonnegative integers a, b, c, x, y, n>= 3 with x and y coprime.
The object of this paper is to give a new proof of all the solutions of the Diophantine equation x^2+11^m=y^n; in positive integers x, y with odd m>1 and n>=3.
Bachet elliptic curves are the curves y^2=x^3+a^3 and in this work the group structure E(F_{p}) of these curves over finite fields F_{p} is considered. It is shown that there are two possible structures E(F_{p}){\cong}C_{p+1} or E(F_{p}){\cong}C_{n}{\times}C_{nm}, for m,n{\in}{\mathbb{N}}, according to p{\equiv}5 (mod6) and p{\equiv}1 (mod6), respectively. A result of Washington is restated in a more specific way saying that if E(F_{p}){\cong}Z_{n}{\times}Z_{n}, then p{\equiv}7 (mod12) and p=n^2{\mp}n+1.
In this work, we consider the rational points on elliptic curves over finite fields F_{p}. We give results concerning the number of points on the elliptic curve y^2{\equiv}x^3+a^3(mod p)where p is a prime congruent to 1 modulo 6. Also some results are given on the sum of abscissae of these points. We give the number of solutions to y^2{\equiv}x^3+a^3(modp), also given in ([1], p.174), this time by means of the quadratic residue character, in a different way, by using the cubic residue character. Using the Weil conjecture, one can generalize the results concerning the number of points in F_{p} to F_{p^{r}}.
