On the $x$--coordinates of Pell equations which are $k$--generalized Fibonacci numbers

TLDR
For an integer d ≥ 2 which is square-free, this paper showed that there is at most one value of the positive integer x participating in the Pell equation x 2 − d y 2 = ± 1, which is a k-generalized Fibonacci number, with a couple of parametric exceptions which they completely characterize.

Linear combinations of prime powers in X -coordinates of Pell equations

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there are only a finite number of nonsquare integers that can be represented as a linear combination of prime powers with fixed primes and coefficients, restricted to the condition that the exponent of the largest prime is the greatest of all exponents.

Sums of S-units in the solution sets of generalized Pell equations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give various finiteness results concerning solutions of generalized Pell equations representable as sums of S-units with a fixed number of terms, and in case of more terms, they are able to bound the number of solutions.

An explicit lower bound for a homogeneous rational linear form in logarithms of algebraic numbers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied linear forms with rational integer coefficients satisfying the strong independence condition and proved an explicit estimate of the form in standard notation, and showed that the form contains no factors in the form.

A Generalization of a Theorem of Baker and Davenport

TL;DR: In this article, the authors generalize the result of Baker and Davenport and prove that the Diophantine pair {1, 3, 8, d} cannot be extended to infinitely many Diophantus quadruples.

Classical and modular approaches to exponential Diophantine equations I. Fibonacci and Lucas perfect powers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine the classical approach to exponential Diophantine equations (linear forms in logarithms, Thue equations, etc.) with a modular approach based on some of the ideas of the proof of Fermat's last theorem.
