    Theorems are obtained giving necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the Diophantine equations \(f(x,y) = f(u,v)\) where \(f(x,y)\) is an arbitrary binary quintic or sextic form. These theorems are then applied to obtain numerical or parametric solutions of certain specific quintic and sextic equations. The equations quite often have infinitely many solutions and are related to elliptic curves.
