Some experiments with Ramanujan-Nagell type Diophantine equations (1409.8132v1)

Published 29 Sep 2014 in math.NT

Abstract: Stiller proved that the Diophantine equation $x2+119=15\cdot 2{n}$ has exactly six solutions in positive integers. Motivated by this result we are interested in constructions of Diophantine equations of Ramanujan-Nagell type $x2=Ak{n}+B$ with many solutions. Here, $A,B\in\Z$ (thus $A, B$ are not necessarily positive) and $k\in\Z_{\geq 2}$ are given integers. In particular, we prove that for each $k$ there exists an infinite set $\cal{S}$ containing pairs of integers $(A, B)$ such that for each $(A,B)\in \cal{S}$ we have $\gcd(A,B)$ is square-free and the Diophantine equation $x2=Akn+B$ has at least four solutions in positive integers. Moreover, we construct several Diophantine equations of the form $x2=Akn+B$ with $k>2$, each containing five solutions in non-negative integers. %For example the equation $y2=130\cdot 3{n}+5550606$ has exactly five solutions with $n=0, 6, 11, 15, 16$. We also find new examples of equations $x2=A2{n}+B$ having six solutions in positive integers, e.g. the following Diophantine equations has exactly six solutions: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{ll} x2= 57\cdot 2{n}+117440512 & n=0, 14, 16, 20, 24, 25, x2= 165\cdot 2{n}+26404 & n=0, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12. \end{array} \end{equation*} Moreover, based on an extensive numerical calculations we state several conjectures on the number of solutions of certain parametric families of the Diophantine equations of Ramanujan-Nagell type.
