چکیده

We classify all integer squares (and, more generally, q-th powers for certain values of q) whose ternary expansions contain at most three digits. Our results follow from Padé approximants to the binomial function, considered 3-adically.

#A3 INTEGERS 12A (2012): John Selfridge Memorial Issue PERFECT POWERS WITH FEW TERNARY DIGITS

We classify all integer squares (and, more generally, q-th powers for certain values of q) whose ternary expansions contain at most three digits. Our results follow from Padé approximants to the binomial function, considered 3-adically. –Dedicated to the memory of John Selfridge.

We prove that if q 5 is an integer, then every qth power of an integer contains at least 5 nonzero digits in its binary expansion. This is a particular instance of one of a collection of rather more general results, whose proofs follow from a combination of refined lower bounds for linear forms in Archimedean and non-Archimedean logarithms with various local arguments.

Perfect Powers with Few Binary Digits and Related Diophantine Problems

We prove that, for any fixed base x ≥ 2 and sufficiently large prime q, no perfect q-th powers can be written with 3 or 4 digits 1 in base x. This is a particular instance of rather more general results, whose proofs follow from a combination of refined lower bounds for linear forms in Archimedean and non-Archimedean logarithms.

Friends of Grover Powers. The late Daniel Darrow, a long-time and dis. tinguished member of your faculty, in 1946, on dedicating his first 76 sci. entific papers in a bound volume to Grover Powers, inscribed it as follows: "To Grover F. Powers, whose faith in people made this work possible." Faith in people is perhaps the best way to characterize Grover Powers' basic attitude in life and this f...
