Abstract
AbstractLet a,b,c be relatively prime positive integers such that a2+b2=c2. Half a century ago, Jeśmanowicz [‘Several remarks on Pythagorean numbers’, Wiadom. Mat.1 (1955/56), 196–202] conjectured that for any given positive integer n the only solution of (an)x+(bn)y=(cn)z in positive integers is (x,y,z)=(2,2,2). In this paper, we show that (8n)x+(15n)y=(17n)z has no solution in positive integers other than (x,y,z)=(2,2,2).
