Show that the equation $y^{2}=x^{3}+2a^{3}-3b^2$ has no solution in integers if $ab \neq 0$, $a \not\equiv 1 \; \pmod{3}$, $3$ does not divide $b$, $a$ is odd if $b$ is even, and $p=t^2 +27u^2$ has a solution in integers $t,u$ if $p \vert a$ and $p \equiv 1 \; \pmod{3}$.
Given positive integers $a,b,c$ which are pairwise coprime. Let $f(n)$ denotes the number of the non-negative integer solution $(x,y,z)$ to the equation $$ax+by+cz=n.$$ Prove that there exists constants $\alpha, \beta, \gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ such that for any non-negative integer $n$, $$|f(n)- \left( \alpha n^2+ \beta n + \gamma \right) | < \frac{1}{12} \left( a+b+c \right).$$
Find all pairs of $ (a, n) $ natural numbers such that $ \varphi (a ^ n + n) = 2 ^ n. $ ($ \varphi (n) $ is the Euler function, that is, the number of integers from $1$ up to $ n $, relative prime to $ n $)
Solve in natural numbers the system of equations $3x^2+6y^2+5z^2=1997$ and $3x+6y+5z=161$ .
Four positive integers $x,y,z$ and $t$ satisfy the relations \[ xy - zt = x + y = z + t. \] Is it possible that both $xy$ and $zt$ are perfect squares?
A triangle with integer sides is called Heronian if its area is an integer. Does there exist a Heronian triangle whose sides are the arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means of two positive integers?
One morning each member of Angela's family drank an $ 8$-ounce mixture of coffee with milk. The amounts of coffee and milk varied from cup to cup, but were never zero. Angela drank a quarter of the total amount of milk and a sixth of the total amount of coffee. How many people are in the family? $ \textbf{(A)}\ 3\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 4 \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 5\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 6 \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 7$
