Diophantine Equation with Balancing-like Sequences Associated to the Pillai-Tijdeman-type Problem

Abstract: Let

{x_{n}}_{n g e q 0}

be the balancing-like sequence defined by

x_{n + 1} = A x_{n} - x_{n - 1}

, for

A > 2

, where

x_{0} = 0

and

x_{1} = 1

. In this paper, we demonstrate how to find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation,

C_{1} x_{n_{1}} + C_{2} x_{n_{2}} + C_{3} x_{n_{3}} = C_{4} x_{n_{4}} + C_{5} x_{n_{5}} + C_{6} x_{n_{6}}

, in fixed integer

A g e q 3

,

n_{1} > n_{2} > n_{3} g e q 0, n_{4} > n_{5} > n_{6} g e q 0,

and

C_{1} x_{n_{1}} e q C_{4} x_{n_{4}}

, where

C_{1}, C_{2}, C_{3}, C_{4}, C_{5}, C_{6}

are given integers such that

C_{1} C_{2} C_{3} e q 0

.
