Beukers' conjecture for odd-prime equations x2−D=pnx^2-D=p^n

About 6 years old · traced to

Let DD be a fixed positive nonsquare integer, let pp be an odd prime, and let N(−D,p)N(-D,p) denote the number of solutions (x,n)∈N2(x,n)\in\mathbb{N}^2 of x2−D=pnx^2-D=p^n. Beukers' odd-prime conjecture.

N(−D,p)≤3.N(-D,p)\leq 3.

This conjecture was completely proved by Bauer and Bennett, so it is solved.
