Özet

Let $d$ and $\delta$ be fixed positive integers. Consider the Diophantine equation $x^2+d^s=\delta y^n$ where $x, y, n$ and $s$ are nonnegative integer unknowns. This equation is usually called the generalized Lebesgue-Ramanujan-Nagell equation. It has a long history and rich content. Recently, a survey paper on the generalized Lebesgue-Ramanujan-Nagell equation has been written by M.-H. Le and G. Soydan, \cite{LS}.

Denote by $h=h(-p)$ the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p})$ with $p$ prime. It is well known that $h=1$ for $p\in\{3,7,11,19,43,67,163\}$. Recently, all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^2+p^s=4y^n$ with $h=1$ were given by Chakraborty et al. in \cite{Cetal}. In this talk, we consider the Diophantine equation $x^2+p^s=2^ry^n$ in unknown integers $(x,y,s,r,n)$ where $s\ge 0$, $r\geq 3$, $n \geq 3$, $h\in\{1,2,3\}$ and $\gcd(x,y)=1$. Our main tools include the known results from the modularity of Galois representations associated with Frey-Hellegoaurch elliptic curves (i.e. modular approach) \cite{BS}, the symplectic method \cite{FK}, a Thue-Mahler solver which was improved by Gherga and Siksek \cite{GheSi} in $\mathtt{MAGMA}$ \cite{Magma} and elementary methods of classical algebraic number theory. This work was supported by the Research Fund of Bursa Uluda\u{g} University under Project No: FGA-2023-1545. This is a joint work with Elif K{\i}z{\i}ldere Mutlu, \cite{MS}.
