The Diophantine equation sum_(j=1)^(m-1)j^n=m^n. Erdős conjectured that there is no solution to this equation other than the trivial solution 1^1+2^1=3^1, although this ...

z(1-z)(d^2y)/(dz^2)+[c-(a+b+1)z](dy)/(dz)-aby=0. It has regular singular points at 0, 1, and infty. Every second-order ordinary differential equation with at most three ...

The ordinary differential equation (1) (Byerly 1959, p. 255). The solution is denoted E_m^p(x) and is known as an ellipsoidal harmonic of the first kind, or Lamé function. ...

In 1913, Ramanujan asked if the Diophantine equation of second order 2^n-7=x^2, sometimes called the Ramanujan-Nagell equation, has any solutions other than n=3, 4, 5, 7, and ...

For a measurable function mu, the Beltrami differential equation is given by f_(z^_)=muf_z, where f_z is a partial derivative and z^_ denotes the complex conjugate of z.

The ordinary differential equation (y^')^m=f(x,y) (Hille 1969, p. 675; Zwillinger 1997, p. 120).

The partial differential equation (1-u_t^2)u_(xx)+2u_xu_tu_(xt)-(1+u_x^2)u_(tt)=0.

The equation f(x_n|x_s)=int_(-infty)^inftyf(x_n|x_r)f(x_r|x_s)dx_r which gives the transitional densities of a Markov sequence. Here, n>r>s are any integers (Papoulis 1984, ...

The second-order ordinary differential equation y^('')+[(alphaeta)/(1+eta)+(betaeta)/((1+eta)^2)+gamma]y=0, where eta=e^(deltax).

The second-order ordinary differential equation (1+x^2)^2y^('')+lambday=0 (Hille 1969, p. 357; Zwillinger 1997, p. 122).
