On the unsolvability of some Diophantine equations of a modified Fermat type
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2010
Extract
In an earlier paper [11] we have discussed the diophantine equation
and the more general equation
when l is an odd prime > 3, c a natural number (or more generally a rational number) satisfying several conditions, n also a natural number and x, y, z, non-zero rational integers. Other investigators have obtained quite a number of results concerning particularly the case n = 1. Obviously, without an essential restriction, we may assume that the natural number c contains no divisor a1n (since such a divisor can be absorbed in the power of z) and furthermore that x, y, z in (1) are relatively prime in pairs.
