The equa ion has a e y ich li e a u e. Fo d= 1 and b= 1, equa ion (1)
has been sol ed by E d˝os and Sel idge [9]. This celeb a ed esul can be
e o mula ed as ha he p oduc o wo o mo e consecu i e posi i e in ege s
is ne e a pe ec powe . The comple e solu ion o (1) in case o d= 1 is due
o Sa adha [21] (case k≥4) and Gy˝o y [10] (case k < 4).
Fo an o e iew o he huge numbe o ela ed esul s o d > 1 we e e o

In case o (k, n) = (3,2) equa ion (1) has infini ely many solu ions, al eady
o b= 1 (c. . [25]). Eule (see [8]) p o ed ha (1) has no solu ions wi h

o (k, n) = (3,4), (3,5) and (5,2).
By a conjec u e o E d˝os, equa ion (1) has no solu ions in posi i e in ege s
when k > 3 and b= 1. In o he wo ds, he p oduc o kconsecu i e e ms o a

By p imi i e a i hme ic p og ession we mean one o he o m

Since now we ocus on he case n= 5, we gi e only he bes known esul

(k, d) = (10,1), x ∈ {−10,1}; (k, d, x) = (10,2,−9).
No e ha knowing he alues o k, d and x, all solu ions (x, d, k, b, y, n) o (1)
can be easily lis ed.
To explain why he case n= 5 in equa ion (1) is special, we need o gi e
some insigh in o he me hod o sol ing (1) o fixed k, in he gene al case

Wiles [26]. In [11], [12], [1], [13] all h ee ypes o e na y equa ions (i.e. o

When n= 3, wo king mainly wi h cubic esidues, howe e making use o el-

3.1 Reducing equa ion (1) o a i hme ic p og essions o ”almos ” fi h powe s
In a s anda d way, as gcd(x, d) = 1 and n= 5, any solu ion o equa ion (1)
can be w i en as

3.2 Lis ing he possible coefficien uples

Obse e ha knowing aijis equi alen o knowing he exponen s νp(aij) o

ij, and suppose ha ij0is such an index ha
νp(aij0x5
ij0)≥νp(aijx5
ij) o all j= 1, . . . , .
Since he a i hme ic p og ession is assumed o be p imi i e, one can easily
check ha hen o all j= 1, . . . , wi h j=j0we ha e νp(aijx5
ij) = νp(j−j0).
As we ha e νp(aij0)<5, we can simply lis all possibili ies o he exponen s
o he p ime pin he coefficien s ai1, ai2, . . . , ai . Then combining hese pos-
sibili ies o all p imes p≤k, we can lis all he possible coefficien - uples
(ai1, ai2, . . . , ai ) which may occu in (3).
3.3 Local es ing o coefficien uples
As we will see, some o he coefficien uples lis ed in he p e ious subsec ion
in ac canno occu as coefficien s o fi h powe s in a i hme ic p og essions.
In many cases his can be shown al eady modulo mwi h some app op ia e

Le 0 ≤i1< i2<···< i ≤k−1 be indices, and conside a coefficien

(4) modulo m(wi h m= 11 o 25). Obse e ha o ha e such a sequence, we
should find app op ia e fi h powe s modulo m. We check all he possibili ies.
(Since we wo k wi h m= 11 and m= 25, he fi h powe s modulo ma e
only {0,±1}and {0,±1,±7}, espec i ely.) Obse e ha by cop imali y, we
know ha m|aij1, aij2yields ha m|j1−j2. I we find ha no fi h powe s

3.4 Reducing he p oblem o genus 2equa ions
We ound wo ways o ge access o genus 2 equa ions.

3.4.1 Reduc ion me hod I
Suppose ha a0x5

which a e he subs i u ions X=−x0x2/x2

yields he genus 2 equa ion
AX5+B=Y2
in X, Y ∈Q.
3.4.2 Reduc ion me hod II
Suppose ha

j= (j−i)aux5

and

Mul iplying hese iden i ies we ge an equa ion o he o m

The a ional poin s on he genus 2 cu es ob ained by bo h me hods (unde

No e ha in ac in case o k= 3 in he p oo o Theo em 2 we also use genus 1

4 P oo s
We gi e he p oo s o ou esul s in a specific o de . Fi s we p o e he case
k= 3 o Theo em 2. We do so because his esul is needed in he p oo o
Theo em 4, which is he nex s ep. The la e esul gi es he key o de i e
Theo em 2 o k≥4. Then we con inue by p o ing he cases k≥4 o Theo em
2 and i s co olla y. Finally, we gi e he p oo o Theo em 1, which easily ollows
om Theo em 2.
In he p oo o case k= 3 o Theo em 2 we shall make use o wo lemmas.
The fi s one is due o Benne , B uin, Gy˝o y, Hajdu [1].
Lemma 5 Le Cbe a posi i e in ege wi h P(C)≤5. I he Diophan ine
equa ion

Y=±1.
The second lemma is a esul o K aus [16].
Lemma 6 Le Aand Bbe cop ime posi i e in ege s wi h AB = 2α3β o
nonnega i e in ege s αand βwi h α≥4. Then he Diophan ine equa ion
AX5+BY 5=Z5
has no solu ions in cop ime nonze o in ege s X, Y and Z.
P oo o he case k= 3 o Theo em 2. Fi s lis all he possible coefficien
iples (a0, a1, a2) as in (2). This can be done by he me hod explained in Sub-
sec ion 3.2. Al oge he we ob ain 182 such iples. Obse e ha a2x5

is also an a i hme ic p og ession. Hence by symme y i is sufficien o con-
side hose 106 iples o which a0≤a2. (I will be clea om ou me hod
ha we can do so wi hou loss o gene ali y indeed.)
Clea ly, a0x5

2is also an a i hme ic p og ession modulo 11 and 25. So
we can es he coefficien iples modulo 11 and 25, as explained in Subsec ion
3.3. A e he modulo 11 es we a e le wi h 88 iples; o example (1,1,6)
ge s excluded by his me hod. The es modulo 25 excludes 6 mo e iples
(e.g. (1,4,3)), and we a e le wi h 82 ones.
