The second four-solution conjecture for a parametrized exponential Diophantine equation

At least 11 years old · documented by

Let mm be a positive integer. Consider the Diophantine equation

x2+13(22m+6−1)2n=19(49⋅42m+5−11⋅4m+3+1).x^2+\frac{1}{3}(2^{2m+6}-1)2^n=\frac{1}{9}\left(49\cdot 4^{2m+5}-11\cdot 4^{m+3}+1\right).

The second four-solution conjecture. This equation has exactly four solutions in integers (x,n)(x,n), with

n=0,3,2m+7,2m+8.n=0,\quad 3,\quad 2m+7,\quad 2m+8.

The conjecture is part of the discussion of equations of the form x2=A2n+Bx^2=A2^n+B with A<0A<0; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
