Abstract: The title equation, where p>3 is a prime number otequiv7pmod8, q is an odd prime number and x,y,n are positive integers with x,y relatively prime, is studied. When pequiv3pmod8, we prove (Theorem 2.3) that there are no solutions. For potequiv3pmod8 the treatment of the equation turns out to be a difficult task. We focus our attention to p=5, by reason of an article by F. Abu Muriefah, published in this journal, vol. 128 (2008), 1670-1675. Our main result concerning this special equation is Theorem 1.1, whose proof is based on results around the Diophantine equation 5x24=yn (integer solutions), interesting in themselves, which are exposed in Sections 3 and 4. These last results are obtained by using tools such as Linear Forms in Two Logarithms and Hypergeometric Series.
