Terai–Jeśmanowicz' conjecture for coprime bases

Let a,b,c,p,q,rNa,b,c,p,q,r\in\mathbb{N} satisfy

ap+bq=cr,a^{p}+b^{q}=c^{r},

with a,b,c,p,q,r2a,b,c,p,q,r\geq 2 and gcd(a,b)=1\gcd(a,b)=1. Terai–Jeśmanowicz' conjecture. The equation

ax+by=cza^{x}+b^{y}=c^{z}

has only the solution (x,y,z)=(p,q,r)(x,y,z)=(p,q,r) with x,y,z>1x,y,z>1. The paper states that this conjecture is false and describes infinitely many counterexamples.
