On the exponential Diophantine equation $(n-1)^{x}+(n+2)^{y}=n^{z}$


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Suppose that $n$ is a positive integer. In this paper, we show that the exponential Diophantine equation $$(n-1)^{x}+(n+2)^{y}=n^{z}, ngeq 2, xyz eq 0$$ has only the positive integer solutions $(n,x,y,z)=(3,2,1,2), (3,1,2,3)$. The main tools on the proofs are Bakers theory and Bilu-Hanrot-Voutiers result on primitive divisors of Lucas numbers.
