Generalizations of the Gap Principle and the Thue-Siegel Principle, with Applications to Diophantine Equations
(University of Waterloo, 2019-07-16)In this thesis we develop generalizations of two well-known principles from the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely the gap principle and the Thue-Siegel principle. Our results find their applications in the theory ... -
The Prouhet-Tarry-Escott problem
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-15)Given natural numbers n and k, with n>k, the Prouhet-Tarry-Escott (PTE) problem asks for distinct subsets of Z, say X={x_1,...,x_n} and Y={y_1,...,y_n}, such that x_1^i+...+x_n^i=y_1^i+...+y_n^i\] for i=1,...,k. ...
