Review text

In the paper under review, the author determines all the Padovan numbers that are expressible as a difference of two repdigits. To prove the main result, the authors uses a clever combination of techniques in Diophantine number theory, the usual properties of Padovan sequence, Baker's theory for nonzero lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers, and the reduction techniques involving the theory of continued fractions. All computations are done with the aid of simple computer programs in \texttt{Matlab}.
