The Diophantine equation p^x + (p + 2q)^y = z^2 , where p, q and p + 2q are prime numbers, is studied widely. Many authors give q as an explicit prime number and investigate the positive integer solutions and some conditions for non-existence of positive integer solutions. In this work, we gather some conditions for odd prime numbers p and q for showing that the Diophantine equation p^x + (p + 2q)^y = z^2 has no positive integer solution. Moreover, many examples of Diophantine equations with no positive integer solution are illustrated.
The main result is to show one application of rank-1 preservers by classifying additive adjugate-commuting preservers between difference square matrix spaces, which is another proof.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
