On the Lebesgue-Nagell equation and related subjects

The work of Cohn [Coh93] and Bugeaud, Mignotte and Siksek [BMS06] solves the Lebesgue-Naguel equation x2 + D = yn, x, y integers, n ≥ 3 for D a integer in the range 1 ≤ D ≤ 100. We propose to do the same for D in the range -100 ≤ D ≤ -1. For that we will use techniques that go from the most classica...
