✦ Synopsis


In recent work by Hajdu and Szalay, Diophantine equations of the form Γ°a k Γ€ 1Þðb k Γ€ 1Þ ΒΌ x 2 were completely solved for a few pairs Γ°a; bÞ: In this paper, a general finiteness theorem for equations of the form u k v k ΒΌ x n is proved, where u k and v k are terms in certain types of binary recurrence sequences. Also, a unified computational approach for solving equations of the type Γ°a k Γ€ 1Þðb k Γ€ 1Þ ΒΌ x 2 is described, and this approach is used to completely solve such equations for almost all Γ°a; bÞ in the range 1oaob4100: In the final section of this paper, it is shown that the abc conjecture implies much stronger results on these types of Diophantine problems.

We consider non-degenerate binary recurring sequences with positive discriminant, relatively prime parameters, and whose initial terms satisfy a certain divisibility condition. Assuming that the ABC conjecture is true, we show that the powerful part of the terms of the sequence remain ``small.'' In

In this work the maximal operational hydrodynamic conditions (agitation and aeration rate) that cause no adverse effect in Sf-9 cells growth in SF900II serumfree medium were determined. Shear stresses higher than 1 N m -2 and aeration rates higher than 0.04 vvm affect cell growth and when these cond

Background: Protein gene product 9.5 (PGP) and calbindin-D28k (calbindin) are neuroendocrine markers that have been localized to neuroendocrine cells in the developing tracheobronchial epithelium. Neuroendocrine cells may play some role in the development of the tracheobronchial epithelium. Little i
